Being on the coast brings some fine print with it. B&D’s warranty terms say a door’s life expectancy is affected by prolonged exposure to marine environments, including any installation within 1 km of them, and its door warranty excludes damage from that exposure. If your home is that close to the sea, read your own warranty before assuming a repair is covered. After a hailstorm, look over the outside of the door for dents and check that it still runs evenly.

Keep clear of a snapped spring or a loose cable, and don’t try to fix either yourself. When you get in touch, tell us whether it’s a roller door, a sectional panel door or a tilt door, what happened just before it stopped, and whether a car is stuck in the garage. If the opener shows a brand name, mention it. With your consent, we then pass your details to one local garage door business.

How soon do you need someone?

We aim to have a garage door business call you back within 2 hours, 7am to 7pm. If your opener needs a new power point or hard-wiring, that part must be done by a licensed electrician.
