Hi all. Right, I thought I'd cracked the problem. I cleaned all the grease off the guides/rollers and tracks. While I had one of the tracks off, I tried the door. I noticed that there was a lot of movement between the frame and guide while the door was shut. From half way upwards, there seems a hell of a lot of pressure between the roller and frame. That would make sense why the door feels 'sticky' from half way upwards. I tried packing the spring mounting bracket out to bring them away from the frame. While the door feels a little better, the tightness is still there. The rollers on the guides feels free and run well in the tracks. Am I looking at a problem that really isn't there? I can't imagine the motor on the door opener lasting long if it was fitted while the door is still sticky. Cheers. Brad
