Garage Door Cable Replacement When You Need It Most

Your garage door cables do a lot of heavy lifting. These cables work alongside the springs to help your garage door open and close smoothly. But when a cable frays, snaps, or comes loose, it can throw your entire system off balance, leaving your door stuck, uneven, or even dangerously unstable.

That’s why we offer fast, professional garage door cable replacement to get your door working like new again. With same-day service, high-quality replacement parts, and expert technicians, we’ll restore your garage door’s safety and reliability in no time.

Signs Your Garage Door Cables Need Replacement

Since cables play a critical role in keeping your garage door balanced and operating safely, it’s important to recognize the warning signs before a complete failure occurs. Here’s what to look for:

  • Frayed or Worn Cables – If you notice strands of your garage door cable unraveling or looking thinner in certain areas, it’s a clear sign of wear and tear. Over time, these weakened spots can snap under pressure.
  • Loose or Slack Cables – Garage door cables should always be under tension. If they appear loose, sagging, or have come off their drum, your garage door won’t lift or lower properly.
  • Garage Door Moving Unevenly – If your garage door lifts at an angle or looks lopsided when opening or closing, a damaged or broken cable could be to blame.
  • Loud Bang or Sudden Failure – When a garage door cable snaps, it can make a loud popping sound. If your garage door suddenly won’t open or is stuck in place, a broken cable could be the cause.
  • Door Slams Shut or Feels Heavy – If your garage door suddenly becomes difficult to lift manually or slams shut too quickly, the cables may not be providing the proper support.

 

Ignoring these warning signs can lead to bigger issues, including damage to other garage door components or even safety hazards. If you’ve noticed any of these problems, call Milestone Garage today.

What Causes Garage Door Cables to Fail?

Your garage door cables work hard every day, keeping your door balanced and functioning smoothly. Over time, though, wear and tear can take a toll. If your cables are frayed, loose, or broken, one or more of these common causes may be to blame:

  • Normal Wear and Tear – Just like any moving part, garage door cables don’t last forever. Constant lifting and lowering put stress on the cables, causing them to weaken over time. If your cables are old, they may be near the end of their lifespan.
  • Rust and Corrosion – Moisture and humidity can lead to rust, which eats away at the strength of your garage door cables. Once rust starts, cables can weaken and break much faster.
  • Improper Tension – If cables are too loose or too tight, they won’t function properly. Incorrect tension can lead to uneven wear, fraying, or even a sudden snap.
  • Broken Springs – Your garage door’s springs and cables work together. If a spring breaks, the cables can take on too much weight, leading to damage or failure.
  • Accidental Impact – If a vehicle, heavy object, or even a strong windstorm knocks your garage door out of alignment, it can put extra strain on the cables, causing them to come off the track or snap.

 

If you’re dealing with worn-out or damaged cables, don’t wait until they completely fail. Call Milestone Garage today!

Garage Door Cable Replacement FAQs

How do I know if my garage door cable is broken?

If your garage door isn’t opening or closing properly, is hanging unevenly, or you notice a loose or frayed cable, it’s time for a repair. Garage door cables play a key role in the door’s operation, so any damage can make your door unsafe to use.

Can I replace my garage door cables myself?

We don’t recommend it. Garage door cables are under high tension, and attempting a DIY repair can be dangerous. Our trained technicians have the right tools and experience to replace your cables safely and correctly.

How long does a garage door cable replacement take?

Most cable replacements can be completed in about an hour. Our team works quickly without cutting corners, ensuring your garage door is safe and fully functional before we leave.

Do you replace both cables if only one is broken?

Yes, we recommend replacing both cables at the same time. Since they wear down at the same rate, replacing just one can lead to uneven tension, causing more issues down the road.

How much does garage door cable replacement cost?

Pricing depends on the type of garage door and the extent of the repair. At Milestone Garage, we provide upfront, honest pricing before any work begins—no surprises, just straightforward service.
