Marley Garage Door Problem

Aug 01, 2006 1 Replies

I've a problem with my Marley Quickfix garage door that I have narrowed down to one of the spools/cones that the wires wrap around shearing off from the rod that connects it to the other spool/cone.



I can order new cones, wires and roll pins, but I can't find any instructions and fitting them: even the company who supply them merely say 'Marley are a bit different'.



How 'different'?



Obviously a deal of care is to be taken in releasing the tension, but does anyone know of a correct setting up method?

Trial and error worked for me for the retensioning - not a Marley BTW.

Fit it and make a guess at the tension, check the balance, then tension a bit more or less as required.
