What Happens When You Book a Garage Door Repair?
When you book your repair, we'll ask a few simple questions about the door and the fault you're experiencing. This helps our technician arrive prepared with the right equipment and likely parts.
Once on site, we'll diagnose the problem and explain what is required before completing the repair.
If the door is badly damaged or replacement is the better option, we'll make the door safe and secure where possible and explain your options.
During a visit, we will also complete the following steps:
Visual Inspection: A look at springs, cables, rollers, and pulleys to determine if they’re working correctly or need repair or replacement as part of the repair.
Lubrication: We use a silicone-based spray that minimises the wear on parts every time the door operates.
Door Balance: Tests whether the door lifts without much effort or resistance. If there is adjustments or repairs, various parts may be required.
Full Repair Checklist; Each Technician carries out a 55-point checklist to cover everything while they are onsite.
Repair or Replace Your Garage Door?
Most garage door faults can be repaired, but occasionally the age, condition or extent of damage means replacement makes more sense.
If that's the case, we'll tell you. Alpha Doors can also measure and quote a replacement garage door and explain the options available.

Garage Door Repair FAQs
How much does a garage door repair cost?
The cost depends on the fault, parts required and whether the repair is completed during normal business hours or as an urgent after-hours repair.
Can you repair any brand of garage door?
We repair most major brands of garage doors and openers and carry a comprehensive range of commonly used parts.
Can you repair a broken garage door spring?
Yes. We carry a large range of garage door springs in our service vehicles and workshop to help us complete spring repairs as efficiently as possible.
My garage door won't open — what should I do?
First, check that there isn't an issue with the power supply to the garage door opener. If the opener has power but the door still won't operate, book a repair or give us a call. Avoid forcing the door, particularly if a spring or cable appears to be broken.
Can you repair garage door openers and motors?
Yes. We repair most major brands of garage door openers and automation, and many common faults can be repaired on the first visit.
When should I repair versus replace my garage door?
This depends on the age and condition of the door, the extent and cost of the repair, and whether insurance is involved. If replacement makes more sense, we'll explain the options and can provide a quote before any further work proceeds.
