What does a sectional door service involve in Didcot?

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.

What can you choose for your Didcot garage?

  • Lubrication and adjustmentHinges, rollers, springs and cables.
  • Annual serviceOne visit a year.
  • Written reportWhat was done and what is wearing.
  • Safety testForce, reversal, photocells and release.

Guide price: £95–£150 inc VAT. We agree the visit price before we come; parts and any further work are priced before we do them.

This is a chargeable visit, priced up front. If parts are needed, you get the price before any further work is done.
