Cable, roller and track repairs – example of the door type

Cable, roller and track repairs in Caterham: common questions

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.

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 are available in Caterham?

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

How much does a cable or roller repair cost in Caterham?

Guide price: £120–£280 inc VAT. We agree the visit price before we come; parts and any further work are priced before we do them.

This is a chargeable visit, priced up front. If parts are needed, you get the price before any further work is done.

Safety points for Caterham customers

If a spring has broken, a cable has come off or the door hangs crooked, stop using it, keep people and pets clear and do not try to force it open or closed. Leave the operator unplugged until the engineer has checked it.

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.
