Repairs, servicing and maintenance
Repairs and servicing you can rely on
A roller door works hard, often without anyone thinking about it. Regular servicing keeps it running smoothly and safely, and helps it last as long as it should.
Most problems start small. A worn part, a slat out of line or a safety device that's stopped working properly. Caught early, these are usually quick to sort. Left alone, they can lead to a door that won't open or a bigger repair bill.
We repair and service roller doors for homes and businesses. If your door has stopped working, is noisy or won't close properly, we'll find the cause and fix it. If it's working well, regular servicing helps keep it that way.
Benefits
Why choose our roller door repairs and servicing?
Fewer breakdowns
Spotting wear early means fewer surprises and less chance of a door failing when you need it.
A longer life
A well-serviced door typically lasts between 15 and 25 years, sometimes longer.
Honest advice
We'll tell you what needs doing now, what can wait and when a repair is better value than a new door.
Common roller door repairs
Most faults we're asked to look at fall into a few groups:
- motors that hum, overheat or stop working
- remotes and wall controls that have stopped responding
- worn springs, cables and fixings
- dented or damaged slats
- split or flattened bottom seals
- safety devices that no longer stop the door
We'll explain what's wrong and what it will cost before we start.
What a roller door service includes
Every door is a little different, but a service usually involves:
- checking the door opens, closes and stops correctly
- looking over the slats, guides, springs and fixings for wear
- testing the motor, controls and safety devices
- adjusting the balance and limits if needed
- telling you about any parts that may need replacing soon
How often should your door be serviced?
Most home garage doors need a service once a year. Commercial and industrial doors that open many times a day usually need one every six months.
Signs your door needs a check
Don't wait for the next service if you notice grinding or scraping noises, jerky or uneven movement, gaps when the door is closed, or a motor that overheats or only works some of the time. Our article on how long roller doors last explains the warning signs in more detail, and you can see the areas we cover for servicing.
Repair or replace?
Plenty of faults can be fixed, such as a tired motor, a worn seal or a damaged slat. If your door is very old or keeps needing work, a new door may be better value. If it comes to that, we supply roller garage doors, commercial roller doors and industrial shutters.

Common questions about roller door repairs and servicing
Can I service my roller door myself?
You can keep it clean and the guides clear. Springs and other parts under tension should only be adjusted by a trained engineer.
How long does a service take?
It depends on the door. We'll give you an idea when you book.
Do you repair roller doors?
Yes. We'll find the fault, explain what it will cost and fix it, or tell you honestly if a new door would be better value.
