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

What does a cable or roller repair involve in Horley?

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.

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 Horley?

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

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

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.

Repair and service visits are chargeable. We agree the visit price before we come and quote any parts before fitting them.

What should you do until the engineer arrives in Horley?

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.

Questions from Horley customers

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.

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.
