Why Call a Professional to Repair or Replace a Garage Door Cable?
If a garage door cable breaks, it compromises the integrity of your garage door. It can cause your garage door to hang unevenly, operate too quickly or even stop working completely. If you try to operate the garage door with broken cables, it could also lead to serious injury or property damage because the door could fall.
You don’t want to try and repair the cables yourself. Garage door cables are under a high amount of tension and require expertise, like our team at The Doorman has, to repair them correctly. If you try to fix your garage door’s broken cable, you are potentially putting yourself in harm’s way.
The two main kinds of garage door cables could both lead to potential injury if you attempt to fix them yourself:
- Torsion cables: These heavy-duty cables bear the entire garage door’s weight, meaning that they are under an extreme amount of tension. Without proper training or experience, fixing this type of cable yourself could lead to serious injury.
- Extension cables: These garage door cables have safety cables to prevent them from snapping, but there is still a chance the garage door could fall during a repair.
Hiring a professional to repair your garage door cable ensures the job is done correctly and keeps you out of a dangerous situation. Garage door professionals are specifically trained to handle these types of repairs, and they can complete the job safely and effectively.
With professional garage door cable repair, you know that your cables are repaired correctly and that your garage door will operate as it should.
What to Do If Your Garage Door Cable Keeps Coming Off
If your garage door cable keeps coming off and you are continuously experiencing malfunctions, there are a few possible reasons. One of the most common reasons for a cable that keeps coming off is because it’s improperly tensioned. If a cable is too tight or too loose, it may not sit on the pulley correctly — so when the garage door tries to go up or down, the cable comes off.
Other reasons your cable may be coming off is that it might be experiencing corrosion or wear. Various garage door components can cause wear on the cables, even if they are correctly tensioned.
Regardless of the reason for your malfunctioning garage door cables, it is important to enlist professional help to repair them. Professionals are trained to handle broken garage door cables correctly and provide effective, long-lasting solutions.

What to Expect From a Garage Door Cable Repair
When you call us for a garage door cable repair, one of our technicians will arrive at your home as quickly as possible to evaluate what needs to be done and replace the cable. In most cases, cable repair takes a few hours. Depending on the situation, it’s likely your technician will replace the set of cables as well.
