Quality cable replacement, done safely
Garage door cables work with springs under extreme tension. We have the specialist tools and experience to replace them safely and correctly.
Quality aircraft-grade cables
We use high-strength galvanised steel cables rated for your door's weight.
Both cables replaced
If one cable has failed, the other is likely near the end of its life. We replace both for safety.
Drum inspection included
Worn drums cause premature cable failure. We inspect and replace drums when needed.

Common cable issues
These are the cable problems we see most often.
Snapped lift cables
Lift cables run from the bottom bracket up to the cable drum. When they snap, the door drops or hangs at an angle. We replace both cables for balanced operation.
Frayed or worn cables
Over time, cables fray from friction against the drum and pulleys. Frayed cables are a ticking time bomb — replacement prevents sudden failure.
Cable off the drum
If the door hits an obstruction, the cable can slip off the drum. This causes the door to operate unevenly and puts strain on the springs and opener.
Safety cable failure
Extension spring systems should have safety cables running through the springs. If missing or broken, a failed spring becomes a dangerous projectile.
