Garage door cables work in tandem with your springs to safely lift and lower the door. When a cable frays, snaps, or comes off the drum, the door can hang at a dangerous angle or drop suddenly. Never attempt to operate a garage door with a broken cable. Our technicians safely replace damaged cables, cable drums, and bottom brackets using aircraft-grade galvanized steel cables rated for the weight of your specific door. We always inspect and replace cables in pairs, and check the condition of your springs and drums at the same time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What causes garage door cables to break?
Cable failure is most commonly caused by worn-out springs (which create uneven tension), rust and corrosion (especially in Canadian climates with road salt exposure), cable rubbing against the track, or simply age and wear. A broken spring is the #1 cause of cable failure — when a spring breaks, the sudden redistribution of weight often damages the cables.
Is it safe to use my garage door with a frayed cable?
No. A frayed cable can snap at any time, causing the door to drop suddenly or hang at a dangerous angle. This poses a serious safety risk. If you notice fraying, uneven door movement, or the door hanging crooked, stop using the door immediately and call for professional service.
