At Wessex Garage Doors, our seasoned garage door technicians can deal with virtually any problem you may encounter with your roller garage doors. Get in contact to arrange for a site visit, and we will be there as quick as we can to diagnose the problem and fix what’s wrong.

What can go wrong?

Your first step is to identify what the problem is and see whether you can fix it yourself. Here are the most common issues encountered with roller garage doors, and what you can do about it:

Broken motor icon

No power

For roller garage doors with automation, a loss of power might be the reason they’re not responding. Check the power source for the door, including the fuse board, and make sure everything is switched on to eliminate a power supply issue.

Up and over icon

Emergency release

Whether your roller garage door is electrically or manually operated, there will be an emergency release chain that should jerk the door into motion. If it still refuses to budge, arrange for a visit from our technicians for professional attention.

Dirt blockages

If your roller garage door is stuck in mid-operation, either half opening or half closing, there might be dirt or debris stuck in the tracks. Take a close look and remove any blockages to see if this solves the problem. For automated garage doors, do ensure that the power is turned off first.

Dent repair icon

Poor condition

Is your garage door generally in poor condition? Damage in the form of buckles, cracks or dents can prevent the door from functioning correctly, and it will look unsightly too. Make sure you have a regular maintenance regime to spot and deal with minor damage, or call Wessex Garage Doors for advice.

Automated garage door

Incorrect door code

For code operated roller garage doors, check that you are using the correct access code. If you are and the door remains motionless, or a neighbour’s door is using the same code as yours, you need to call out the engineers to reset the system.

Wessex Garage Door Brochure

Roller garage doors are a compact, space-saving door design that is particularly suitable for short driveways or where space is at a premium. The operating mechanism is mounted on vertical tracks that run up and down the side of the door. As the door opens, it rolls up neatly and securely in its own barrel-like compartment at the top of the garage’s internal opening. As such, it’s an easy-to-maintain design, whether the doors are made from steelGRP fibreglass or ABS plastic. But even with premium garage doors there may come a time when they need attention.

Skilled engineers with years of experience

Whether an aspect of the operating mechanism has become damaged through wear and tear, or the door has suffered cosmetic or structural damage, it may be necessary to call in professional garage door experts to carry out repairs.

At Wessex Garage Doors, our specialist team of garage door technicians have, over the years, dealt with just about every garage door problem imaginable. This gives us a wealth of hand-on expertise and in-depth knowledge, meaning you can rely on us to carry out the fix for you.
