Cables
Homeowners often say “the wire on the side broke” or “the cable is hanging.” Frayed, off-drum, or broken cables make the door crooked, uneven, or unsafe. Cables and springs often fail together — don't confuse them.
A cable hanging from one side, tangled, or off the drum needs professional re-stringing. Do not operate the opener — the door can drop or twist further off track.
If one side of the garage door is higher, the door hangs crooked, or it lifts unevenly, a cable or drum issue is likely. Spring failure can cause the same look — we diagnose which before quoting.
A loud bang and heavy door usually means spring. A cable lying slack or a door cocked to one side often means cable — sometimes both. Forcing the door risks panel and track damage.
