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

Can these parts be replaced without a new door?

Yes. Cables, rollers, bottom brackets, hinges and tracks are all replaceable parts.

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 can you choose for your Shirley garage?

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

What does a cable or roller repair cost in Shirley?

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.

You will know the visit price before we book. Any parts or extra work are quoted and agreed with you first.

What should you do until the engineer arrives in Shirley?

Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.
