Garage Door Cable Replacement Near Edmond and Oklahoma City, OK
Garage door cables are an important part of a garage door’s operation. Garage doors weigh hundreds of pounds, which can make movement dangerous. Garage door cables and springs work together to bear the garage door’s weight and ensure movement happens safely. When garage door cables become loose or snap, it compromises the safety and functionality of the garage door.
Overhead garage door cables run vertically to the track, snaking along the sides of the garage door and attaching to drums. Cables will tighten and loosen as the garage door moves, just as torsion springs coil to accept tension.
If you have loose or broken garage door cables, it’s important to schedule garage door cable replacement quickly. When garage door cables are damaged, the springs and opener will be subjected to extra strain, which could lead to them breaking as well. It’s also not safe to operate a garage door that has broken cables or springs. If both cables came off the garage door, it’s especially important that you contact us.
We change garage door cables expertly and efficiently! Our team at The Garage Door Company is well-trained in repairing overhead garage door cables. With each project, we focus on excellent customer service alongside quality garage door repairs.
Loose Garage Door Cables
Garage door cables may become loose over time, which leads them to fall off their drum. This is more likely to happen if there’s a broken garage door spring or if the garage door closed on something. We recommend visually inspecting your cables every few months. If your garage door cables look frayed or damaged, schedule a maintenance call. If you get ahead of garage door cable replacement, you can save a lot of time and money.
It may be tempting to attempt DIY cable repair, but we strongly recommend leaving this repair to the professionals. Similar to springs, cables carry loaded tension that hold the potential to cause severe injuries. Our technicians are trained to handle these parts and will ensure garage door cable replacements happen safely.
Broken Garage Door Cables
If you have a garage door cable snap, there will be a loud, popping noise. It’s best not to attempt to use the garage door at all. It can be dangerous and will likely cause damage to other garage door hardware. Cables are more susceptible to breaking when they’ve been corroded or reached an older age. Because this repair needs to happen quickly, we keep high-cycle replacement garage door cables on hand. Garage door cable replacement needs to be done correctly the first time, which is what our technicians are trained to do

What Our Customers Say
Would highly recommend this company. I greatly appreciated the technician communicating that he was on the way to my location as well as conversation explaining exactly what needed to be repaired and the cost. There were no surprises and a repaired garage door!

MARYLAN POSTIER
Called and had them come and replace a broken spring on the garage. My car was in the garage when it broke. The technician asked me to pull my car up so he could get behind it. He said he would guide me and ended up hitting the corner of the hot water closet. When I confronted him about it he said that he couldn’t see that side he was watching the cloths hamper in front of my car. When my husband called the office he said he didn’t guide me he was behind the car. He is a LIAR. The only reason I gave two stars is because he did replace the spring.
