Cable, roller and track repairs in Birkenhead: what to expect

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.

What knocks tracks out of line?

A car nudging the door, settling of the building, or loose fixings can bend or shift a track. Misaligned tracks make the door bind and strain the operator.

Which options are available in Birkenhead?

  • Lift cablesReplace and re-tension both sides.
  • RollersReplace worn or broken rollers.
  • Bottom bracketsReplace damaged brackets.
  • Track realignmentStraighten or replace tracks.

My door is crooked. Can I still open it?

No. A crooked door usually means a cable or roller fault. Keep clear and book a visit.

No. Clean them and keep them dry. Light lubricant goes on hinges, roller bearings and springs, not the inside of the tracks.
