Emergency Garage Door Cable Repair

Our experts will repair issues like slipped cables. The technician will de-tension the system, reattach the wires to the cable drums, and then calibrate the door balance to ensure proper equilibrium.

Full Garage Door Cable Replacement

We provide immediate cable replacement service for snapped or frayed cables. This service includes replacing both lift cables to ensure balance and prevent future issues.

New Garage Door Cable Installation

Our experts provide a professional cable installation service and use the correct cable diameter, such as 3/32" aircraft-grade cable, cut to the precise length for doors like a standard 7-foot model.

Signs of a Failing Garage Door Cable

Door is Crooked or Loose On One Side

The garage door cable has snapped, broken, or slipped off its drum if your garage door hangs unevenly or sags to one side. 

Visible Frayed or Snapped Cables

Visual inspection reveals that the steel cables are frayed, thinning, or have visible broken wires. A completely snapped cable is a critical failure.

Cable Has Too Much Slack

A hanging or loose cable indicates that it has become unwound or has come loose from the pulley or drum system. This slack renders the door unbalanced and dangerous to operate.

Loud Snapping or Banging Noises

A sudden, loud noise from the garage often signals a cable breaking under the tension of the door. This is different from the bang of a broken torsion spring. And needs immediate repair.

Common Garage Door Cable

Our technicians diagnose and resolve these specific cable-related problems daily.

  • Cable Came Off Pulley or Drum: The cable has unwound and is no longer seated in the grooves of the drum or pulley wheel, often happening if the door is obstructed during movement.
  • Snapped or Broke on One Side: This is a critical failure where a single lift cable breaks, causing the door to become dangerously crooked and inoperable.
  • Cable Came Off Both Sides: A more severe issue where both cables are off their drums. This usually occurs after a major system fault, such as a broken spring.
  • Frayed or Rusted Cables: Tallahassee’s humidity causes rust, weakening steel strands. Friction causes fraying. Both require immediate replacement to prevent a snap.

Questions About Garage Door Cable Repair

The average cost to fix a garage door cable is $100 to $350 which includes both parts and labour. However the actual cost depends upon the type and brand of cable. 

Our workers would recommend the best cable to you.

A garage door cable comes off its drum when an obstruction hits the door, the horizontal tracks are misaligned, or the torsion spring breaks. An incorrect spring size can also cause this issue.

Adjusting garage door cable tension involves winding or unwinding the torsion spring system. This procedure is hazardous and requires specialized tools, including winding bars, to be performed safely.

Fixing a garage door cable involves a technician first securing the door, then detensioning the spring system to handle the wires safely. The specific repair then depends on whether the cable is replaced or simply reset on its drum.
