Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if my garage door cable needs replacing?

The most common signs are a door that sits unevenly, a cable visibly hanging loose on one side, or a door that will not open. Fraying along the cable means it is close to failure and should be addressed before it snaps.

Yes. Both cables share the same cycle count and wear timeline. When one fails, the other is typically close behind. Replacing both at the same time keeps the door balanced and avoids a second service call.

No. A door with a snapped cable is unbalanced and unsafe to operate. Running the opener puts dangerous stress on the remaining cable, the tracks, and the opener itself.

Most cable replacements are completed within one to two hours depending on the condition of the drums, brackets, and surrounding hardware.

Every cable replacement is backed by a 5-year warranty on parts and a 1-year warranty on labor and adjustments, covering defects in workmanship related to the service performed.
