Frayed, slack or snapped lift cables replaced and re-tensioned.
About this service in New Hamburg
Lift cables carry the spring's force down to the bottom of the door. When one frays or jumps its drum, the door immediately goes crooked, and forcing it through another cycle usually pulls the whole assembly further out of line.
We replace cables in pairs, re-seat the drums, set equal tension on both sides and correct whatever caused the failure — a loose drum, a rough pulley, a bent bottom bracket or a door that has been running out of square.
For New Hamburg properties near the river we pay particular attention to corrosion at bottom brackets and cable ends, where moisture tends to collect over a season.
Warning signs
- The door hangs at an angle or one corner lags behind
- Cable strands are frayed, kinked or rust-marked
- Slack cable coiling loosely beside a drum
- The door drags on one side of the opening
