Common Reasons for Garage Door Cable Repair

Fraying or Wear

Over time, the cables that lift and lower the garage door can become frayed or worn due to regular usage. This wear and tear weaken the cables, making them more prone to snapping or breaking, which can compromise the functionality and safety of the garage door.

Rust and Corrosion

Just like with garage door springs, rust and corrosion can also affect the cables. When rust develops on the cables, it can weaken their structure, leading to potential breakage. Rust can also increase friction between the cables and the pulleys, causing strain on the system and hastening wear and tear.

Improper Tension

Garage door cables need to be properly tensioned to ensure smooth operation of the door. If the cables are too loose or too tight, it can put unnecessary strain on the system and lead to premature wear and tear. Improper tensioning can also cause the door to become misaligned or uneven, resulting in issues with opening and closing.

Lack of Maintenance

Regular maintenance is crucial for ensuring the longevity and proper functioning of garage door cables. Without routine inspections and maintenance, issues such as loose connections, damaged pulleys, or debris buildup can go unnoticed, increasing the risk of cable failure. Regular lubrication and adjustment of the cables are essential to prevent issues and extend their lifespan.

I ain’t gonna lie, I was skeptical calling a garage door service, but these guys are the real deal. Door wasn’t opening, and Lucas had it fixed in like 40 minutes tops. Dude even gave me advice on insulating my garage better. Never thought I’d be hyped about garage door service, but here we are.

My garage door panel was damaged after someone backed into it. I figured it’d cost a fortune to replace. Jacob came by, looked at it, and said he could fix it instead of replacing the whole thing. Saved me a ton of money, and the door looks good as new. Honestly, best experience I’ve had with a repair service.

Man, I gotta say, these guys are lifesavers. My door wouldn’t close, and I had an important delivery coming the next day. Jamie Garage Door sent Jacob, and he was chill and super quick. He got the problem sorted and didn’t try to upsell me on stuff I didn’t need. Can’t thank them enough.
