Lift cables carry serious load alongside the springs. When one frays or snaps, we replace both cables as a pair and check the drums for wear.
When one lift cable fails, the other has seen the same wear cycle. We replace both to prevent a repeat call.
Cable replacement without a drum check is an incomplete repair, so we always look at both.
Our technicians are trained to safely release and reset tension when cables are involved, not just the springs.
A same-day fix is standard for cable failures, parts already on the truck.

A snapped cable leaves the door hanging unevenly on the remaining side, an unsafe condition we treat as priority.
Fraying cable strands are a warning sign of imminent failure. We replace before it snaps and drops the door unexpectedly.
If the cable keeps slipping off the drum, we look for a bent drum or misaligned track causing the repeat issue.
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.
A quick description of the lean or jam gets the right cable gauge loaded before arrival.
Technicians carry standard cable gauges and lengths for most residential doors.
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.
“Cable kept jumping the drum every few cycles. Turned out the drum itself was cracked, replaced and fixed.”
“Explained why replacing just one cable wasn't a real fix. Makes sense once you see the wear pattern.”
“Door was jamming mid-cycle for weeks. Cable and drum issue, fixed in one visit.”
An uneven hang points to a broken cable, a failed spring, or a bent track pulling the panel off-square.
We recommend replacing both since they wear on the same cycle, and we'll explain the reasoning before you decide.
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.
You'll get a confirmed price on-site once the technician inspects the full cable and drum setup.
A snapped-cable call usually resolves in under two hours on-site.
