Loose, Frayed or Broken Cables
Garage door cables help lift and stabilize the door as the springs transfer tension through the system. When a cable becomes loose, frayed or broken, the door may hang unevenly, jam in the tracks or become unsafe to operate.
Best Garage Door Company provides professional garage door cable repair throughout South Florida, with same-day availability for many urgent cable problems.
Schedule Cable Repair Call 954-408-1560Cable and Lifting-System Service
We remove damaged lifting cables, install properly sized replacements and inspect the connection points at the drums and lower brackets.
A cable may lose tension because of a spring, drum, track or alignment problem. We identify the cause instead of simply rewinding the cable.
After cable work, we examine the springs, drums, rollers and tracks and test whether the garage door travels evenly.
A High-Tension Component
Garage door cables work alongside high-tension springs and support a heavy moving door. Loosening a bottom bracket, cable drum or spring-related component without proper training can release tension unexpectedly.
If one side of the garage door is lower than the other, stop using the opener. Continued operation may pull rollers from the tracks, bend hardware, damage panels or cause the remaining cable to fail.
Cable damage is sometimes the result of another problem. Corrosion, worn drums, incorrect spring tension, damaged tracks and binding rollers can all contribute to cable failure. Our technicians inspect the complete system so the repair addresses the source of the problem.
