Roller garage door servicing in Stornoway: questions
Do you repair roller doors you did not fit in Stornoway?
Yes. We repair roller garage doors of any make in Stornoway and across HS1, where parts are available. If a part is no longer made, we tell you what will fit instead, or price a replacement door if that is the better option.
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Stornoway?
If the door is stuck part-open, keep people, pets and cars clear of it and switch off the power at the isolator if it is safe to reach. Do not force the curtain or open the roller box. Your Stornoway visit date is confirmed in writing.
Will you fix the door on the first visit?
A fault can sometimes be found and put right on the first visit, but we never promise it. If a part needs ordering, we quote for it first, make the door safe where we can, and confirm the return date in writing.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Stornoway?
Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Stornoway. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Should I oil my roller garage door?
Not unless the manufacturer's instructions say so. Many roller doors use a dry or silicone lubricant, if any at all, and the guide rails are usually best kept clean and dry. During a service, the engineer uses only the product type the manufacturer specifies for your door.
Do you service roller doors you didn't fit?
Yes. We service electric and manual roller garage doors of any make, whoever fitted them. Tell us whether the door is electric or manual and the make if you know it, and we'll confirm the service price before anyone comes out. We don't service sectional or up-and-over doors.
