Garage Door Cable Repair
Central New York Garage Door Repair and Maintenance
A broken or loose cable is one of the most common things that can go wrong with your garage door. When your cable needs to be replaced, your door won't operate properly or even move. It can stay stuck in an open position, leaving your garage open to the elements or fail to open at all, trapping your vehicles inside the garage.
Fortunately, garage door cable replacement is an easy repair that we can complete in just a few hours.
Garage Door Cable Repair and Replacement Services
At Wayne Dalton of Syracuse, our skilled technicians can quickly determine whether your door cable can be repaired or needs replacing. We try to fix the cable when at all possible, but we also don't want your door to stop working again in just a few weeks.
Sometimes, a replacement is unavoidable. We have experience working on a wide range of doors, from all of the major manufacturers and in all materials. We are also happy to answer any and all of your questions about the work before we begin.
Replacing garage door cables is not a good DIY project. The door's springs are under a lot of tension and can be dangerous if not handled properly. That's why having an experienced garage technician work on your door is important.
About Our Repair Process
At Wayne Dalton of Syracuse, we begin our repair by making sure that the door is in a position that puts the least tension on the springs. We then carefully remove the opener from the garage door itself, remove the old cable and replace the new cable securely. (Trust us; it's a little trickier than it sounds.)
Then, we replace the set screws and the opener and test it to make sure that it is working properly. Garage door cables are best replaced in sets. Otherwise, the open cable will likely need to be replaced shortly after you have the first one worked on.
