What should I know about stuck roller garage door repair in Edinburgh and the Lothians?
- Don't force the curtain up or down, as it can bend laths or pull them out of the guide rails.
- Dirty or misaligned photocells can stop an electric door closing, so wipe the lenses and make sure the beam is clear.
- Check the isolator, circuit breaker and remote battery first, because a stuck door is sometimes a power or signal problem.
- Clear stones, leaves or debris from the bottom of the guide rails with the door switched off at the isolator.

Questions about stuck roller garage door repair in Edinburgh and the Lothians
Can I get a price without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type, or the visit price for a repair. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Are guide prices the same across Edinburgh and the Lothians?
Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in Edinburgh and the Lothians. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.
How do I book a visit in Edinburgh and the Lothians?
Tell us what the door is doing using the form on this page, by phone or on WhatsApp. We confirm the visit price before anyone comes out, then confirm the date in writing.
Why will my roller door open but not close?
A door that opens but won't close often points to the safety devices. Dirty, blocked or misaligned photocells, or a damaged safety edge, tell the door something is in the way. Wipe the photocell lenses and check the beam is clear. If it still won't close, request a visit, and never bypass the safety devices.
Is it safe to adjust the springs on my manual roller door?
No. The springs inside the barrel of a manual roller door hold stored energy to balance the curtain, and they can release suddenly if disturbed. Adjusting or releasing them needs the right tools and training. If a manual door has become heavy, drops on its own or won't stay up, stop using it and request a visit.
