Garage Door Cable Repair in Brooklyn, NY

Lift cables raise and lower the door evenly on both sides. When one frays or snaps, the door hangs crooked, jams or comes off its tracks. We replace garage door cables all over Brooklyn.

Signs of a Cable Problem

• The door is lower on one side or hangs crooked.
• A cable is loose, hanging or wound unevenly on the drum.
• Fraying or rust near the bottom brackets.
• The door jerks or stops partway up.

How We Repair It

Cables are under spring tension, so we secure the door and release the load first. We replace cables in pairs, check the drums and bottom brackets, re-tension the springs, balance the door and test it through a full cycle. If the door has come out of its tracks, see off-track repair.

Why Cables Fail in Brooklyn

Winter road salt and moisture rust the bottom of the cables where they attach to the door, and a broken spring or a door that hits a car often throws a cable off its drum. Keep the door closed and call us – do not drive under a crooked door.
