What Causes Garage Door Cable Issues?

Garage door cables play an essential role in the smooth operation of your door. They are responsible for lifting and lowering the door safely, and any issue with them can affect the entire system. Below are some of the common causes of garage door cable problems

Wear and Tear

We specialize in torsion and extension spring replacements using high-quality materials to ensure your garage door operates smoothly.

Misalignment

If the garage door tracks are not aligned properly, the cables may become misaligned, putting stress on the system. This can result in damage to the cables and the door’s overall operation.

Improper Installation

If the cables were not installed correctly during the initial setup, they may be under tension or positioned incorrectly, causing premature damage.

Heavy Loads

If your garage door is too heavy for the system, the cables may be overstrained, leading to breakage. This is especially true for older doors or those that have been modified with additional features.

Lack of Maintenance

Regular maintenance can help prevent cable problems, as it ensures that all components of the garage door are in good working condition. Without proper upkeep, small issues can turn into larger problems that compromise the cables.

Signs You Need Garage Door Cable Repair

It’s important to recognize when your garage door cables are in trouble. If left unaddressed, cable issues can worsen quickly and lead to further damage to the door and other components. Keep an eye out for the following warning signs

Broken or Frayed Cables

If you notice any visible signs of wear, fraying, or breakage in your garage door cables, it’s time to call for repair. A snapped cable can leave the door inoperable and pose a safety risk.

Uneven Door Movement

If your garage door opens or closes unevenly, it may be due to a cable issue. One side of the door may move faster than the other, or the door may get stuck mid-way.

Unusual Noises

If your garage door makes a grinding or popping sound during operation, it could be a sign of damaged cables. These noises may occur if the cables are rubbing against other components or if they’ve become worn down.

Door Won’t Open or Close

If your garage door is completely stuck or won’t open or close properly, the cables may be broken or detached. This can prevent the door from moving at all.

Visible Gaps or Slack in the Cables

If you notice a gap or slack in the cables, it can indicate that the cables are loose, misaligned, or starting to wear out.

Our Garage Door Cable Repair Process

When you contact Brilliant Garage Doors Vancouver for cable repair, we follow a systematic process to ensure the job is done right

Inspection

Preventative Maintenance to Extend the Life of Your Garage Door Cables

Once your cables are repaired or replaced, it’s essential to take steps to maintain them and prevent future issues. Here are some simple maintenance tips to keep your cables in top shape

Regular Inspections

Have your garage door system inspected regularly to catch any potential issues before they become major problems. Annual or bi-annual inspections can help identify signs of wear and tear on the cables.

Lubrication

Apply a lubricant to the cables, rollers, and tracks to ensure smooth operation. This helps reduce friction, preventing the cables from wearing out prematurely.

Keep the Tracks Clean

Dirt and debris can accumulate in the tracks, causing the door to become misaligned. Keep the tracks clean to ensure the cables remain in proper alignment.

Avoid Overloading the Door

Avoid placing excessive weight on the garage door, as this can strain the cables. Make sure the door is properly balanced and free of obstructions.

Address Problems Early

If you notice any signs of cable issues, such as unusual noises or uneven movement, address them as soon as possible. The earlier you catch the problem, the easier and less expensive the repair will be.
