SINGLE / DOUBLE / SPECIAL OPENINGS

Garage doors that work properly.Repair, restore or replace.

Wooden sectional garage door with hinges and reinforcement
A sectional door’s panels, hinges, tracks and lifting system need to work together.

We assess the door as a complete mechanism. A door that is heavy, noisy, catching or uneven may have more than one worn component, and the visible fault is not always the cause.

Steel & sectional doors

Panel damage, hinges, rollers, track alignment, lifting hardware and replacement options for suitable steel and Chromadek doors.

Wooden garage doors

Timber condition, panel and joint repairs, sanding, treatment and refinishing where restoration is practical.

Roll-up & tip-up doors

Door travel, guides, lifting arrangements, balance and suitable automation assessed for the specific mechanism.

Aluminium & caravan doors

Assess the construction, opening height, hardware and parts availability before confirming repairs or a new installation.

GARAGE AUTOMATION / EXISTING & NEW SYSTEMS

The motor is part of the system.Start with a balanced door.

A dependable opener needs a suitable, freely moving door. We check the mechanism before recommending motor repairs, replacement or a new installation.

Fault finding & repairs

Assess power, charging, controls, receivers, drive components and operation on the installed model.

New automation

Match the operator, rail or mounting kit to the door type, dimensions, operating condition and usage.

Replacement advice

Compare the cost and practicality of repairs with a compatible replacement, especially on older equipment.

Controls & backup

Check remotes, compatible receivers, battery condition and charging arrangements for the actual operator.

Installed SDO4 SMART operator. The door and mounting arrangement must suit the motor.
Older motor support: We assess legacy Digidoor, CENTURION, DC Blue, Pro Alpha, Aladdin and other installed operators. Repair and parts availability depend on the exact model and component; historic model lists are not a stock guarantee.

SPRINGS / CABLES / PANELS / HARDWARE

Repair the cause.Then check the complete movement.

01 / BALANCE

Tension & torsion springs

Assess broken or unsuitable springs, door balance and the condition of related lifting hardware. Correct spring selection follows inspection.

Spring repairs ↗
02 / LIFTING

Cables & cable drums

Inspect frayed, loose or displaced cables, drums, attachment points and the reason for uneven movement.

Cable repairs ↗
03 / STRUCTURE

Panels, rollers & tracks

Assess impact damage, timber deterioration, worn hinges, rollers, brackets and alignment before choosing a repair or replacement.

SLIDING / SWING / MECHANICAL REPAIRS

Gates and gate motors.Movement, control and access.

01 / AUTOMATION

Gate motor assessment

Fault finding, servicing and replacement enquiries for sliding and swing operators. We assess the controller, supply, drive and usage before recommending work.

02 / MECHANICAL

Gate wheels, rollers & track

Inspect worn wheels, guide rollers, track condition, catches and anti-lifting arrangements. A motor should not compensate for a gate that jams or moves poorly.

03 / INSTALLATION

A suitable operator

Match the operator to the gate’s mass, length, condition, travel, duty and mounting requirements. Confirm included accessories and warranty terms in the quotation.

Brand and model enquiries: CENTURION, DTS, ET/Nice, Hansa and Gemini installations can be assessed. Send the motor label and describe the fault; suitable parts and current replacement options must be confirmed for the exact model.

SAFETY / REMOTES / CONTROLLED ENTRY

Useful additions.Chosen for the installation.

01 / SAFETY

Infrared safety beams

Check the beam type, controller compatibility, positioning and protective response. Beams detect interruption along their path and do not cover every hazard.

i5 & Photon SMART beams ↗
02 / REMOTES

Remote controls & receivers

Extra remotes, authorised programming and suitable receiver upgrades. Frequency alone does not establish compatibility.

NOVA remotes ↗
03 / ACCESS

Keypads, tags & intercoms

Assess access-control needs for the property, including compatible keypad, tag and phone-linked entry options. Logging depends on the chosen system.

04 / POWER & SECURITY

Backup and added protection

Discuss compatible batteries, solar options, magnetic locks or alarm functions. Feasibility and equipment depend on the site and controller.

DOMESTIC / COMMERCIAL / INDUSTRIAL ENQUIRIES

Roller shutter doors and motors.Assess the door and its duty.

Repairs, servicing, maintenance and installation enquiries for suitable roller shutter systems. We confirm the door size, construction, operating method and site requirements before quoting.

Manual, chain, gearbox and motor-driven arrangements require different hardware and assessment. The operator must suit the door’s load, duty and safety requirements.

Discuss a roller shutter requirement ↗

Door and mechanism inspection

Assess the curtain, guides, shaft, brackets, balance and operating mechanism. Identify structural or mechanical damage before addressing automation.

Motor and control assessment

Check the installed operator, controls, limits, supply and usage. A recommendation depends on the exact equipment and operating environment.

Planned servicing

Agree an appropriate service interval using manufacturer guidance, cycle frequency, exposure and condition. Avoid a fixed schedule that ignores a busy industrial installation.

HOMES / COMPLEXES / BUSINESS PREMISES

Plan maintenance around use.Keep a clear record of what needs attention.

01 / HOMEOWNERS

Individual doors & gates

Investigate changes in noise, balance, travel, controls or battery performance. Arrange servicing appropriate to the equipment and its use.

02 / COMPLEXES

Shared access systems

Discuss usage, multiple users, access permissions, repeated faults and service scheduling with the authorised representative.

03 / BUSINESSES

Operational access

Assess door duty and condition, arrange suitable attendance and identify repair or replacement priorities for the premises.

Changes to an existing door need assessment. Increasing clearance height, adding sections or changing a timber design can affect tracks, hardware, weight and balance. Feasibility must be checked before work is agreed.

BEFORE YOU BOOK

Your service questions.Clear answers.

Repair options, older equipment, maintenance and what to send for a quotation.

Which areas do you service?

We take service enquiries across Gauteng, including Pretoria, Johannesburg and Centurion. Send the suburb and the type of work required so we can confirm scheduling and the arrangements for your property.

Do you repair a door before recommending replacement?

We assess the fault and overall condition first. Where a suitable repair is practical, we explain the work required. If damage, deterioration or unavailable parts make repair uneconomical, we can discuss a replacement quotation.

Can you work on older garage door motors?

Yes, we assess older operators as well as current installations. Repair depends on the fault and compatible parts. A discontinued model does not automatically mean every repair is impossible, but parts or replacement options need checking.

Will a new motor fix a heavy garage door?

The door must first be mechanically sound and correctly balanced. Springs, cables, tracks, rollers or damaged panels may need attention before a new or repaired motor is commissioned.

Can a damaged wooden door be restored?

Some doors can benefit from localised timber repairs, sanding, treatment or refinishing. We assess the structural condition and extent of deterioration before recommending restoration. Coating work cannot correct unsound joints or widespread rot.

Can you increase the height or change the design of an existing door?

Some changes may be possible, but they require an assessment of the opening, panels, tracks, headroom and balance. We do not assume extra panels or a different design can be added safely to every door.

How often should garage doors and roller shutters be serviced?

The appropriate interval depends on manufacturer guidance, use, environment, condition and the type of installation. Busy commercial doors and shared entrances can need more frequent attention than lightly used domestic equipment. Request a suitable service plan.

Do you install safety beams and extra remotes?

We assess compatible safety beams, remote controls, receivers and access-control accessories. Functions and suitability depend on the existing motor and controller. Installation includes checking the intended response of the fitted equipment.

What should a complex or business send for a quotation?

Send the site location, number and type of doors or gates, motor labels, main faults and access arrangements. Tell us about operating hours and any restrictions that affect attendance. Photographs help with the initial enquiry.

What should I do if a door is crooked or a spring or cable breaks?

Stop operating it and keep people and vehicles clear of the opening. Do not force the motor or attempt to straighten, tension or refit lifting components. Arrange professional assistance.
