Snapped Garage Door Cables Repaired Fast

If you notice that your garage door has stopped opening or making grinding noises, the problem may involve broken cables. As important components that lift and lower heavy overhead doors, cables endure significant lifelong tension and stress. Over years of operation, they eventually snap. This is where you will need to go ahead with your garage door cable repair.

Due to the extreme, dangerous pressures involved, DIY garage door cable repair is not advised. At Infinity Garage Door Repair, our licensed technicians have the know-how to expertly diagnose issues with your garage door cables. We can help you with:

  • Broken bottom corner brackets

  • Broken sheaves and shafts
  • Broken track rollers and many more

At Infinity Garage door repair we’ll get your garage door cables fixed up reliably in no time. If repairing is not possible, we will promptly go ahead with garage door cable replacement as well.

How Do Garage Door Cables Work?

Torsion spring garage door systems include steel aircraft cables that attach to the bottom roller brackets. Acting in tandem with adjustable springs mounted along a torsion shaft above the door, taut steel cables provide counterbalance via equalized lift and controlled downward force. This enables easy lifting and closing of even very heavy doors. They also prevent uncontrolled slamming as gravity is gradually offset.

Why Do You Need Garage Door Cable Repair?

While your garage door cables are made of durable galvanized or stainless steel, after years of lifting and lowering cycles, they eventually wear thin and snap. A broken garage door cable not only leads to uneven weight distribution issues making doors inoperable, but also poses safety hazards. If your garage door wire broken, you should get it repaired immediately.

Specific reasons your garage door cables fail include:

  • Metal fatigue and fraying after extended use
  • Manufacturing defects weakening the cables
  • Age and long-term wear and tear
  • Over-stretching due to excessive door weight or improperly aligned tracks
  • Corrosion from environmental exposure
