What does a cable or roller repair involve in Maidstone?
Why do rollers wear?
Nylon and steel rollers wear with use and dirt. Worn rollers make the door noisy and rough, and broken rollers can let a section leave the track.
How do you stop it happening again?
Regular servicing catches fraying cables and worn rollers before they fail. Keeping tracks clean and not lubricating them with heavy grease helps too.
