Garage door cable repair in Atlanta and the metro area
Lift cables run from the bottom corners of the door up to drums by the springs. When one snaps or slips off, the door hangs crooked or won't move. We'll line up a technician to fix it.
Signs to look for
- The door hangs lower on one side
- A cable dangling loose next to the door
- Fraying or rust on a cable
- The door stopped after a spring broke
What the repair involves
The technician secures the door, replaces or re-seats the cable, checks the drums and bottom brackets, and makes sure both cables carry the door evenly.
How pricing works
You get the price before any work starts. If the technician finds something else once they're there, they tell you that price too, and nothing extra happens without your OK.
Can I keep using the door with a frayed cable?
It's best not to. A frayed cable can snap without warning, and the door can drop or jam. Leave it closed if you can and let us know.
