What should I know about stuck roller garage door repair in Kelso?
- The engineer finds the cause, frees and tests the door where possible, and quotes any parts before fitting them.
- Clear stones, leaves or debris from the bottom of the guide rails with the door switched off at the isolator.
- Springs inside a manual door's barrel hold stored energy, so leave the roller box closed and the springs alone.
- Dirty or misaligned photocells can stop an electric door closing, so wipe the lenses and make sure the beam is clear.

Stuck roller garage door repair in Kelso: questions
How much is a visit in Kelso?
Prices for stuck roller garage door repair start from £119 inc VAT, and the price is agreed before anyone comes out. Any parts not covered by that price are quoted before they are fitted, so you can decide on the spot. The guide prices are the same in Kelso as elsewhere we cover.
Do you charge more for Kelso than other towns in the Scottish Borders?
No. Guide prices are the same for Kelso as for anywhere else we cover in the Scottish Borders. 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Kelso?
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 Kelso. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply 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.
Can you fix a stuck door on any make of roller door?
Yes. We repair stuck electric and manual roller garage doors of any make, whoever fitted them. We don't repair sectional or up-and-over doors. Tell us what the door is doing and the make if you know it, and we'll confirm the visit price before anyone comes out.
