Sectional garage door repairs in Colchester: what to expect
What are the most common faults?
Broken springs, frayed or slack lift cables, worn rollers, loose hinges, bent tracks after a car knock, failed photocells and worn operator parts are the usual culprits.
Is it safe to keep using the door?
If the door is noisy but balanced, it is usually safe to use carefully until the visit. If a spring has broken, a cable has come off its drum or the door hangs crooked, stop using it, keep people clear and do not try to force it.
