CABLE REPAIR — OUR PROCESS
Simple, transparent, and done right the first time
Stop Using the Door
A broken or frayed cable means the door could fail suddenly. Stop using it and call us — operating a door with a bad cable can cause sudden collapse.
Tech Arrives & Assesses
Our technician inspects both cables and the full lift system — drums, springs, and bottom brackets — to identify all issues at once.
Cable Replacement
We replace the cables with aircraft-grade galvanized steel cables rated for well above your door's weight. Both sides are typically replaced together.
Balance Check & Test
After cable installation, we rebalance the door, test the auto-reverse, adjust opener force, and verify smooth operation before departing.
