Garage Door Cable Repair Services
Garage door cables experience considerable wear and tear through normal operation. Cables are one reason that homeowners should inspect their doors at least once a month. If you notice any issues, schedule an inspection immediately rather than letting it get bad enough that it damages other parts of your door.
Most garage door cables have a protective shield made from plastic. That shielding safeguards the threads underneath from moisture, which can cause rust and damage. Look for any imperfections in that coating. It’s important that they not interfere with the smooth operation of the door. If there are small punctures, it may be possible to seal them. If there is extensive or widespread damage to the shielding, it’s often best to replace the cable entirely.
The other issue to watch for is fraying. This can happen to unshielded cables. It can also occur with shielded cables when that protection has deteriorated over time. Any fraying is bad, and there is usually no fixing a frayed cable. That cable will eventually fail. It could snap at an inopportune time and hurt someone. If a cable snaps during operation, it can also lead to serious damage to other aspects of your door.
Garage door cables provide the garage doors strength. That requires there to be tension on the cable. Another common issue is that there’s not enough tension. This can lead to doors not opening or closing smoothly or quickly. In many cases, our team can fix that issue through adjustment. We will wind the cable on the drum. Likewise, if the cable is too tight, we will unwind the cable on the drum.
