What does a sectional door service involve in Altrincham?
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.
Is servicing worth it on a newer door?
Yes. Early servicing keeps the door balanced, which protects the springs and the operator, and it may be a condition of some warranties.
Which options are available in Altrincham?
- Lubrication and adjustmentHinges, rollers, springs and cables.
- Safety testForce, reversal, photocells and release.
- Annual serviceOne visit a year.
