Garage door cables might seem like minor components, but they play a crucial role in your door’s operation. These steel cables act as the muscular connection between your garage door opener and the springs, ensuring smooth and balanced movement. At Garage Doors New York, we understand the importance of maintaining these vital lifelines and offer expert services to keep them in top condition.
Function:Garage door cables run vertically on either side of your door, connecting the bottom brackets to the spring drums or pulleys. As the opener motor turns, it winds or unwinds the torsion or extension springs, and the cables translate this tension to lift and lower the door.
Types:There are different cable thicknesses and materials suited for various door weights and functionalities.
Uneven or jerky door movement:This indicates a potential problem with the cables, such as fraying or snapping.
The door is difficult to open or close manually:Faulty cables can significantly increase the effort required to lift the door.
Visible cable damage:Look for fraying, rust, or breaks in the cable itself.
The door hangs unevenly:A snapped cable on one side will cause the door to tilt.
