Garage door repairs
Whether it's a mechanical fault, a worn component, a faulty motor or a problem with your remote, Steve will find the fault and get you back up and running wherever possible.
Common garage door faults, put right
Steve repairs and services a wide range of domestic garage doors and mechanisms. These are the problems he deals with most often.
Fault finding
Not sure what's wrong? Steve will track down the cause, whether it's a mechanical fault, a worn part or an electrical problem, and talk you through what's needed to put it right.
Springs and cables
Springs and cables carry the weight of the door. When one snaps or frays, the door can become very heavy, lift unevenly or refuse to open at all.
Locks and handles
Stiff, broken or jammed locks and handles repaired or replaced, so your garage is secure and easy to open again.
Hinges and rollers
Worn hinges and rollers make a door noisy and jerky. Replacing them gets it running quietly and smoothly again.
Doors stuck or off track
If a door has jammed, dropped at one side or come off its track, Steve will get it realigned and running safely.
Faulty motors and operators
Electric door not responding, or the motor running without the door moving? Steve diagnoses and repairs automatic openers. See remotes & automatic doors.
Sticking, noisy or difficult doors
A door that's hard work to open or close usually has an underlying cause. Steve will find it and adjust or repair it.
Door adjustments
Doors that won't close fully, catch on the frame or sit unevenly can often be put right with the correct adjustment.
General mechanical faults
From bent fittings to worn mechanisms, Steve deals with the everyday wear and tear that stops a door working properly.

Door stuck or a spring gone? Don't force it.
Garage door springs and cables are under a lot of tension. If one has broken, or the door has dropped or come off its track, forcing it can cause more damage, or even injury.
Leave the door where it is, keep people and cars clear of it, and give Steve a call on 07939 500544.
