Sectional garage door servicing and safety checks in Bournemouth: what to expect
How often should a door be serviced?
For a powered door used every day, once a year is sensible. A lightly used manual door can go longer, though we would not leave it more than two years. Commercial doors that open many times a day need more frequent visits.
Why test the force settings?
A powered door that closes too hard can hurt someone. Testing the force limits and reversal is one of the most important parts of a service.
Which options are available in Bournemouth?
- Safety testForce, reversal, photocells and release.
- Annual serviceOne visit a year.
- Lubrication and adjustmentHinges, rollers, springs and cables.
- Written reportWhat was done and what is wearing.

Questions from Bournemouth customers
Can I do anything between services?
Yes. Test the auto-reverse with a soft object monthly, keep the tracks clean and dry, and watch for frayed cables. Leave springs and cables to engineers.
Do I need to service an electric garage door?
It is strongly recommended. Safety devices drift and wear, and only testing shows whether they still work.
