Default Garage door - stuck open :(

As I was pushing the up-and-over type garage door up (to get the mower
out), it didn't seem to go up properly on one side (the left as I look
from outside). Anyway, I got the mower out, cut the grass and
returned it to the garage.

Now I can't close the garage door. It gets nearly to the floor - about
15 cms away - and is sticking out a little bit. Have tried pushing it
back up and trying again. Noticed theres a bit of dangly wire on the
left side, and the wire on the right is taught and now theres none on
the "rolly bit" at the top.

Want to get the door closed and locked for security, and can then call
"an expert" tomorrow unless....

Someone here can give some hint as to how to fix it.


replacement 'cone and cable' sets are available, Henderson brand are what
I am familiar with.
Follow the supplied instructions otherwise it can be a severe nippy finger
job as I have discovered :0)
