Garage Door Cable
The garage door cable is responsible for providing smooth opening and closing the garage door by lifting the door's weight. The cables are attached at the drum near the top of the garage door to the bottom section of the door.
If a cable is snapped, broken, or detached, it needs to be replaced before the door will work again. A loose cable may have just come off the drum, in which case, a repair is all that is needed.
A cable that has begun to fray needs to be replaced before it breaks. It's highly advised to avoid the damage a snapped cable can cause by having the cables replaced before they break.
If you have your garage door regularly cleaned and serviced, your garage door expert will keep an eye on the cables and let you know if there is a problem.
Garage Door Tracks
Your garage door’s tracks play an essential role in helping it open and close smoothly. If one of the tracks becomes broken or bent, the problem needs to be addressed before any further damage occurs, which can necessitate your need for replacement. Bent or misaligned tracks are often the result of a severe door malfunction, worn parts, or even human error (i.e., a car backing up into the door).
Garage door tracks are a crucial guide and support of the garage door as it opens and closes. If a track is bent, off-track, or broken, the door won’t function correctly and may not work at all.
It’s possible that a garage door track can be repaired instead of requiring a replacement. If a garage door is off the track, it is often traceable to a damaged garage door track.
