Why replace a garage door when it can be repaired?
If your garage door has undergone a little damage or developed a fault but is otherwise fine, we offer the option to have it repaired rather than replacing it with a new one. This is a great option for homeowners, landlords and commercial businesses that are looking for an effective and affordable repair service without the need to invest in an entirely new garage door.
Common Garage Door Problems We Fix
Our engineers diagnose and repair a wide range of garage door faults. Here are the most common issues we see across Central Scotland.
Torsion and extension springs wear out over time, causing the door to become heavy or unbalanced. We carry replacement springs for most makes and models.
Frayed or snapped cables prevent the door from opening safely. This is a repair that should only be carried out by a trained technician due to the tension involved.
Quality parts, guaranteed results.
If your automated garage door won't respond to the remote or wall switch, the motor or operator may need repair or replacement. We work with Hörmann, Garador, and other leading brands.
Tracks that have shifted or become bent cause the door to stick, jam, or make grinding noises. We realign or replace damaged tracks to restore smooth operation.
Rollers and hinges wear down with use, leading to noisy or jerky movement. Replacing these components is a straightforward fix that extends the life of your door.
Lost or broken remotes? We supply replacement remotes and reprogram them on-site. We also troubleshoot signal and receiver problems.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a garage door repair cost?
Repair costs vary depending on the fault. Minor fixes like remote reprogramming or seal replacement typically cost less than replacing springs or motors. We provide a clear quote after diagnosing the issue — there’s no obligation to proceed.
Can you repair my garage door the same day?
In many cases, yes. We offer same-day call-outs for urgent repairs across Central Scotland, subject to availability. Call us to check current availability.
How often should I service my garage door?
We recommend at least one service per year for domestic garage doors. High-use doors or commercial premises may benefit from servicing every six months.
Do you repair all garage door brands?
Yes. Our engineers work with all major brands including Hörmann, Garador, Cardale, Henderson, Wessex, and SWS. We also repair older and discontinued models.
My garage door won't open - what should I do?
First, check the power supply and remote batteries. If the door still won’t operate, avoid forcing it — this can cause further damage. Call us and we’ll diagnose the issue.
Do you repair electric garage doors?
Yes. We repair and service automated and electric garage doors, including motor replacements, remote programming, and safety sensor checks.
Is it worth repairing an old garage door?
Often, yes. If the door panels are in good condition, replacing worn components like springs, cables, or motors is usually more cost-effective than a full replacement. We’ll give you honest advice based on the door’s condition.
Prevent faults through regular garage door servicing
Whilst our garage door repair service is fast, affordable and stress-free, an even better solution is to prevent damage and malfunctions from arising in the first place. That’s where our regular garage door servicing comes in, as we can visit you as often as required to check the functionality and condition of your garage doors, which allows our technicians to nip problems in the bud.
We recommend at least two services a year, although this will depend on factors such as how often you open and close the garage door, the materials it’s made from and your local weather conditions. In some cases once a year will suffice and in others it could be worth us visiting on a quarterly basis. Whatever the case, we’ll provide you with a low-cost quotation and help you to keep your garage doors in top condition throughout the year.
Lost your door control? No problem!
Automated garage doors are a modern convenience that makes daily life easier. However, losing the garage door control could mean that your vehicle is either trapped inside the garage or has to be parked on the street. If you ever lose or break your garage door control, simply get in touch with Kay Garage Doors and we’ll bring a replacement and reprogramme it right there and then.
