Garage Door Cable Installations In the Greater Phoenix Area

OFFER: $65 Service Call

Garage door cables are an integral component of a garage door. They allow the door to open and close, transferring energy from the springs to the door. Without solid cables, the springs are useless.

Two common types of cables help a garage door open and close safely and efficiently: lifting cables and safety cables. The lifting cables connect the door springs to the drums or pulleys, depending on whether torsion springs or extension springs are used, and take on the mechanics of lifting the door. Safety cables run across the top of the garage door through the springs. Their role is to keep the springs from flying off the door if they break.

Signs of it’s time for new garage door cables

  • Opener operates, but door doesn’t move

    When the homeowner presses the button to raise their garage door, and the opener operates, but the door doesn’t move, most likely a cable has broken.

  • Delayed opening

    If the garage door doesn’t immediately respond to a push of the button, it might be due to damaged cables.

  • Loose or droopy cables

    If the lifting cables are loose or droopy, it’s a good sign they need replacing.

  • Door misaligned

    A door that isn’t square in the opening may indicate damage or broken cable or cables.

  • Unusual noises

    Homeowners become accustomed to their home’s noises. But when the noises change, it should be cause for inspection. As with other components within the home, if the garage door makes unusual noises when opening, check the cables to ensure they aren’t damaged or broken.
