One cable slipping off its drum groove is enough to jam a door mid-cycle or send a panel crashing at an angle. We fix the cable and check why it slipped in the first place.
When one lift cable fails, the other has seen the same wear cycle. We replace both to prevent a repeat call.
Frayed cables often trace back to worn or damaged drum grooves, so we inspect the drums every time, not just the cable.
Our technicians are trained to safely release and reset tension when cables are involved, not just the springs.
Cable stock in standard gauges means most replacements happen in a single visit.
Whatever brought you here, one of these service lines is the fix, and one call gets a technician moving.
We replace the snapped cable and its pair, then verify even tension across both sides.
Fraying cable strands are a warning sign of imminent failure. We replace before it snaps and drops the door unexpectedly.
A cable that's jumped its drum groove can jam the door mid-cycle. We reset it correctly and check for the underlying cause.
We match new drums to the correct diameter for your door's cable length requirements.
A door hanging crooked usually means one cable or spring has failed while the other holds. We correct both the immediate hazard and the root cause.
A quick description of the lean or jam gets the right cable gauge loaded before arrival.
Technicians carry standard cable gauges and lengths for most residential doors.
We check both cables and the drums together, then quote a flat price covering the full fix.
Cables replaced, tension balanced, and the door tested level before we leave, backed by written warranty.
“Door was hanging at an angle after a cable snapped. They replaced both cables and it's perfectly level now.”
“Caught the fraying cable during a routine call before it actually snapped. Appreciated the heads-up.”
“Door was jamming mid-cycle for weeks. Cable and drum issue, fixed in one visit.”
One side losing tension while the other holds is the classic sign of a single cable or spring failure.
We recommend replacing both since they wear on the same cycle, and we'll explain the reasoning before you decide.
Yes, a door hanging on a single cable or spring can drop unexpectedly and should not be operated until repaired.
Usually a bent or worn drum groove, sometimes combined with a slightly loose cable tension setting.
Pricing depends on cable length, gauge, and whether the drums also need replacing, confirmed as a flat number before work starts.
