Understanding the Importance of Garage Door Cables
Garage door cables are key safety features that allow motorized door openers to lift the door along the track. These rope-like components are made of small wire threads wound together. Cables help support the door’s weight. Most systems have a cable on each side of the garage door, lifting it from the bottom section.
If one cable breaks or snaps, the system operates lopsidedly, with the unbroken cable doing all the heavy lifting. Leaving the issue unrepaired puts undue wear on your garage door components.
Signs Your Garage Door Cable Needs Repair
A garage door that doesn’t open or close or crashes to the floor is a clear indication that something’s wrong.
However, spotting a problem with your garage door cables before it gets to that point can save you time and money.
Here are some signs that it’s time to call ADCO Garage Doors for a cable repair:
- Crooked or unbalanced garage door: When the door alignment is off, it generally indicates a problem with the cables.
- Difficulty moving: You may find that your garage door is more difficult to raise or lower smoothly.
- Loud banging, scraping or squeaking: A broken cable can put other components under tension, causing many strange sounds.
- Loose cables: Garage door cables should be taught, not loose.
- Frayed, worn or corroded cables: You should check your cables occasionally for fraying, corrosion
or signs of wear and tear that can weaken the entire cord.
