- Keep people, pets and cars clear of a door that has stopped part-open, and don't walk or drive underneath it.
- Clear stones, leaves or debris from the bottom of the guide rails with the door switched off at the isolator.

Rules that apply in Canterbury
Powered door safety
Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.
Electrics
An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.
Stuck roller garage door repair in Canterbury: questions
What should I do while I wait for a visit in Canterbury?
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 Canterbury visit date is confirmed in writing.
Do you cover Canterbury?
Yes. Canterbury is part of the area we cover in Kent, including CT1 and CT2. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
Do you charge more for Canterbury than other towns in Kent?
No. Guide prices are the same for Canterbury as for anywhere else we cover in Kent. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.
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.
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.
My roller door is stuck part-way. What should I do?
Stop pressing the button, keep people and cars clear of the opening, and don't walk or drive under the door. Check the power and the photocells, and look for debris in the guide rails. If that doesn't help, switch the door off at the isolator and request a visit rather than forcing the curtain or opening the roller box.
