What does a sectional door repair involve in Thorne?
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.

Questions from Thorne customers
My door goes up a little then reverses. What is wrong?
Often it is the operator force setting, a misaligned photocell or a door that has lost its balance. A visit will find out which.
Can a dented panel be replaced?
Sometimes, if the same section is still made in the same finish. Otherwise the door may need replacing.
