Garage Door Cable Repair & Replacement
Serving Manteca & Stockton, CA
Frayed, loose or snapped lift cables replaced in matched pairs so your door rises level and safe.
Frayed or Snapped Cables Fixed the Right Way
Lift cables connect the bottom corners of your door to the spring system. They carry the full weight of the door every time it moves, so a frayed or loose cable is a warning you should not ignore.
A door that hangs crooked, a cable that has jumped off its drum, rust on the strands or a slapping noise as the door travels all point to cable trouble. If one cable snaps, the door can drop unevenly and jam in the tracks. Keep cars and people clear and call us before using the door again.
Our technicians release spring tension safely, replace the cables in matched pairs so both sides share the load, and check the drums and bottom brackets for damage. We finish by balancing the door and running it through several full cycles to confirm the cables wind evenly.
