We use a variety of terms like cable snap, wire snap, and broken wire to ensure we're speaking your language and addressing the problem you're facing.
The Dangers of a Snapped Cable & Our Expert Solution
A damaged garage door cable is not just a minor issue- it's a sign that your door is at risk of a major failure. Here’s why it’s critical to address it immediately:
-
Risk of Going Off-Track: When one of your cables is broken or frayed, the door loses its balance. This can cause one side of the door to sit higher than the other (a common symptom with extension spring systems), putting immense stress on the tracks and rollers. The result is often a costly and dangerous situation where the door comes completely off-track.
-
System Overload: A single broken or loose cable forces the remaining cable and the opener system to carry more weight than they were designed for. This puts your garage door opener motor under extreme strain, potentially leading to premature failure. The increased stress can also cause a perfectly good spring to snap from the added tension.
-
Safety First: The most significant danger is a door that falls unexpectedly. The heavy weight of the door makes this an immediate safety threat to people and property. If your cable is frayed or completely broken, do NOT use your garage door until a certified technician can inspect it.
-
Comprehensive Replacement: Our technicians are experts in both torsion spring and extension spring cable systems. We don't just fix a broken cable; we perform a complete system inspection and provide a full cable replacement, ensuring the door is perfectly balanced, aligned, and safe before we finish the job.
