Garage doors break, stop opening and get jammed at the most inopportune moments and usually have valuable possessions housed behind them or often the car.

We know that you will need assistance quickly to get the door open and then fixed so it is secure again.

The main causes of a broken garage doors is a snapped cable or a broken spring. We carry a vast array of cables in our vans and can usually fix these on the spot. The springs can be harder to do instantly and sometimes take a day or two to get replacements.

There is often a cause for the breaking of a garage door. Sometimes it is rust, sometimes it is just fatigue in the metal. Other times it is do with the spindle wheels, which run in the tracks. These can wear out and need replacing too.

You can help increase the life of your garage door by giving it a regular spray with some oil or WD40.  Please no grease – it just goes hard and causes problems!

Electric garage door openers can cause problems too. Sometimes it is one of the above problems that causes the electric opener to stop working. We fix the mechanics of the door and the opener will work again.

Other times it is the electric opener that has a problem. This could be the limits where it stops and starts coming out of place. It could be a failed transmitter or receiver unit if the remotes have stopped working. We can usually diagnose the fault quickly and offer a repair or in the worse case scenario do a replacement.
