Common Signs of a Cable Problem
Garage door cables play a critical role in supporting the weight and balance of your door. When they fray, snap, or loosen, you might notice:
- A door that lifts unevenly or gets stuck mid-operation
- Visible frayed or slack cables near the track
- Loud noises or jerking movement when opening or closing
- One side of the door appearing higher than the other
If you experience any of these issues, it’s time to call for professional service.
What Causes Cable Damage?
Cables typically break or wear out due to a combination of age, tension issues, and exposure to the elements. In some cases, poor installation or rust can weaken the metal, causing premature failure. Our technicians will not only replace your cables but also inspect the full system to catch any related issues, such as spring tension imbalance or misaligned tracks.
Why Cable Repairs Require Professional Attention
Garage door cables are under extreme tension. Attempting a DIY fix without the right tools and experience can result in serious injury. Our certified technicians are trained to work safely under pressure, using the correct tools and replacement parts to ensure the job is done properly the first time.
