Cable, roller and track repairs in Somerset
For a cable or roller repair in Somerset, from Bath, Weston-super-Mare, Taunton and Yeovil and beyond, tell us the fault and we will confirm the visit price first.
Cable, roller and track repairs fix the parts that guide and lift a sectional garage door: the steel lift cables on each side, the bottom brackets they fix to, the rollers that run in the tracks, and the tracks themselves. Faults here cause a door to run crooked, jam, grind or drop on one side.

Cable, roller and track repairs in Somerset: what to expect
What does a snapped or slack cable look like?
The door hangs lower on one side, may jam part-way, or the cable is visibly loose or off its drum above the door. Stop using the door: a cable fault can let the door twist or fall.
Can these parts be replaced without a new door?
Yes. Cables, rollers, bottom brackets, hinges and tracks are all replaceable parts.
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.
Which options can you choose?
- Lift cablesReplace and re-tension both sides.
- Bottom bracketsReplace damaged brackets.
- Track realignmentStraighten or replace tracks.
- RollersReplace worn or broken rollers.

Questions about cable, roller and track repairs in Somerset
Should I oil the tracks?
No. Clean them and keep them dry. Light lubricant goes on hinges, roller bearings and springs, not the inside of the 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.
