Syracuse, NY Garage Door Cable Repair

One of the most common things that can go wrong with your garage door is a broken or loose cable. When your cable needs replaced, your door won't operate properly or even move. It can stay stuck in an open position, leaving your garage open to the elements or fail to open at all, trapping your vehicles inside the garage. Fortunately, garage door cable replacement is an easy repair, one that we can take care of in just a few hours.

Garage Door Cable Repair and Replacement Services

At Wayne Dalton of Syracuse, our skilled technicians can quickly determine whether your door cable can be repaired or if it needs to be replaced. We try to repair the cable when at all possible, but we also don't want your door to stop working again in just a few weeks. Sometimes, a replacement is unavoidable. We have experience working on a wide range of doors, from all of the major manufacturers and in all materials. We are also happy to answer any and all of your questions about the work before we begin.

Replacing garage door cables is not a good DIY project. The springs on the door are under a lot of tension and can be dangerous if not handled properly. That's why it's important to have an experienced garage technician work on your door.

At Wayne Dalton of Syracuse, we begin our repair by making sure that the door is in a position that puts the least tension on the springs. We then carefully remove the opener from the garage door itself, remove the old cable and replace the new cable securely. (Trust us; it's a little trickier than it sounds.) Then, we replace the set screws and the opener and test it to make sure that it is working properly. Garage door cables are best replaced in sets. Otherwise, it's likely that the open cable will need replaced shortly after you have the first one worked on.
