Lift cables carry serious load alongside the springs. When one frays or snaps, we replace both cables as a pair and check the drums for wear.
Matching wear on both cables means both get inspected and typically replaced together.
Frayed cables often trace back to worn or damaged drum grooves, so we inspect the drums every time, not just the cable.
Our technicians are trained to safely release and reset tension when cables are involved, not just the springs.
Cable stock in standard gauges means most replacements happen in a single visit.
Whatever brought you here, one of these service lines is the fix, and one call gets a technician moving.
We replace the snapped cable and its pair, then verify even tension across both sides.
Fraying cable strands are a warning sign of imminent failure. We replace before it snaps and drops the door unexpectedly.
If the cable keeps slipping off the drum, we look for a bent drum or misaligned track causing the repeat issue.
Worn or cracked cable drums get replaced alongside the cable itself, since a damaged drum will fray the next cable too.
Correcting an uneven lean means addressing the cable, checking the spring pair, and confirming the track is still square.
Tell us if the door is hanging crooked or jammed, that detail helps us prioritize the call correctly.
Cable stock on the truck means most calls avoid a second trip for parts.
Diagnosis includes the drums, not just the visible cable, before any price is confirmed.
We verify the door hangs and travels evenly before calling the repair complete.
“Door was hanging at an angle after a cable snapped. They replaced both cables and it's perfectly level now.”
“Caught the fraying cable during a routine call before it actually snapped. Appreciated the heads-up.”
“Door was jamming mid-cycle for weeks. Cable and drum issue, fixed in one visit.”
This almost always means one lift cable or spring has failed while the other side is still holding weight.
Replacing just one often leads to a second failure soon after. We're upfront about that tradeoff.
This is a genuine safety hazard, especially with people or vehicles near the door opening.
Repeated slipping points to a drum issue rather than just the cable itself, which we'll inspect.
Pricing depends on cable length, gauge, and whether the drums also need replacing, confirmed as a flat number before work starts.
Most cable replacements are completed same-day, typically within one to two hours once the technician arrives.
Same-day dispatch, upfront pricing, and a written warranty on every visit.
