When cables fray or snap, your door becomes unsafe and inoperable.
Garage door repair in San Diego starts with a $125 service call that's applied toward the work. Castle has served San Diego to Riverside County since 1981 — family-owned, CSLB #1154002.
Garage door cables work in tandem with the springs to safely raise and lower your door. They’re wound around drums at the top of the door and bear the full weight of the door during operation. When a cable breaks or comes off the drum, the door can drop suddenly, hang at an angle, or become completely stuck.
A door operating on a damaged cable is a safety hazard. If the remaining cable fails, the full weight of the door (150-250+ pounds) can drop without warning. Additionally, running the door on one cable puts uneven stress on the entire system, potentially damaging tracks, rollers, and the opener.
