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.
Matching wear on both cables means both get inspected and typically replaced together.
A cable can slip its groove repeatedly if the drum itself is damaged, which we check before calling the job done.
This repair sits close to stored spring energy, which is exactly why licensed handling matters here too.
We carry the common cable lengths and gauges for most residential door sizes.
Each service below is handled by a technician trained specifically for this kind of repair, not a generalist guessing at it.
We replace the snapped cable and its pair, then verify even tension across both sides.
Catching a fraying cable early avoids the sudden, uneven drop that comes with a full snap.
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.
Correcting an uneven lean means addressing the cable, checking the spring pair, and confirming the track is still square.
Tell us if the door is hanging crooked or jammed, that detail helps us prioritize the call correctly.
Cable stock on the truck means most calls avoid a second trip for parts.
We check both cables and the drums together, then quote a flat price covering the full fix.
We verify the door hangs and travels evenly before calling the repair complete.
“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.
Replacing just one often leads to a second failure soon after. We're upfront about that tradeoff.
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.
Cost varies with door size and whether one or both cables and drums need attention.
Most cable replacements are completed same-day, typically within one to two hours once the technician arrives.
