Common Garage Door Cable Problems We Solve
Garage door cables play a crucial role in the safe and efficient operation of your garage door. When these cables malfunction, it can cause significant issues, compromising the functionality and safety of your garage door. Here are some of the common garage door cable problems we solve and how we address them:
Broken or Frayed Cables
Over time, garage door cables can become worn out, frayed, or even snap due to regular wear and tear, exposure to the elements, or lack of maintenance.
Our team of professionals will inspect the cables to assess the extent of the damage. We then replace the broken or frayed cables with high-quality, durable cables designed to withstand heavy usage and environmental factors. Regular maintenance checks are also recommended to prevent future issues.
Loose or Slack Cables
Garage door cables can become loose or develop slack if the tension is not properly maintained. This can cause the door to operate unevenly or get stuck.
We carefully adjust the tension of the cables to ensure they are properly aligned and taut. This adjustment helps in smooth operation and extends the lifespan of the cables and other related components.
Off-Track Cables
Cables can come off their tracks, especially if there is an obstruction, improper installation, or wear and tear over time. This can prevent the door from opening or closing correctly.
Our experts realign the cables and ensure they are securely fitted in their tracks. We also inspect the tracks and other components for any signs of damage or misalignment and make necessary repairs to prevent recurring issues.
Rusty or Corroded Cables
Exposure to moisture and environmental conditions can cause cables to rust or corrode, weakening them and leading to potential breakage.
We replace rusty or corroded cables with rust-resistant materials that are better suited to withstand moisture and other harsh conditions. Additionally, we apply protective coatings to extend the life of the new cables and recommend routine maintenance to keep them in good condition.
Snapped Safety Cables
Safety cables act as a backup to the main cables, preventing the door from crashing down if the main cables fail. If safety cables snap, it poses a serious safety risk.
Our team promptly replaces snapped safety cables and ensures that both main and safety cables are in optimal condition. We perform thorough safety checks to confirm that all components are functioning correctly and provide recommendations for ongoing maintenance to keep your garage door system safe and reliable.
By addressing these common garage door cable problems, we help maintain the safety, functionality, and longevity of your garage door system. If you encounter any issues with your garage door cables, contact us for prompt and professional service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are all garage door cables the same?
Are all garage door cables the same?

How to choose garage door cable
How do I choose the right garage door cable?
To choose the right garage door cable, you need to consider the following factors:
- Type of door: Different types of doors (e.g., sectional, one-piece) require different cables.
- Weight of the door: Heavier doors require stronger, thicker cables.
- Length: Measure the height of your garage door to determine the appropriate cable length.
- Material: Stainless steel cables are preferred for their durability and resistance to corrosion. Consulting with a professional can help ensure you select the right cable for your garage door.
What size cable do I need to run power to my garage?

The size of the cable you need to run power to your garage depends on the electrical load and distance from the power source. For standard 120V circuits, a 12-gauge wire is typically sufficient for distances up to 100 feet. For longer distances or higher power demands, you might need a thicker cable, such as 10-gauge. It’s important to consult with an electrician to determine the correct wire size for your specific situation.
