Lift cables carry serious load alongside the springs. When one frays or snaps, we replace both cables as a pair and check the drums for wear.
When one lift cable fails, the other has seen the same wear cycle. We replace both to prevent a repeat call.
Cable replacement without a drum check is an incomplete repair, so we always look at both.
This repair sits close to stored spring energy, which is exactly why licensed handling matters here too.
A same-day fix is standard for cable failures, parts already on the truck.
Whatever brought you here, one of these service lines is the fix, and one call gets a technician moving.
A snapped cable leaves the door hanging unevenly on the remaining side, an unsafe condition we treat as priority.
Fraying cable strands are a warning sign of imminent failure. We replace before it snaps and drops the door unexpectedly.
If the cable keeps slipping off the drum, we look for a bent drum or misaligned track causing the repeat issue.
Worn or cracked cable drums get replaced alongside the cable itself, since a damaged drum will fray the next cable too.
Correcting an uneven lean means addressing the cable, checking the spring pair, and confirming the track is still square.
Tell us if the door is hanging crooked or jammed, that detail helps us prioritize the call correctly.
Cable stock on the truck means most calls avoid a second trip for parts.
Diagnosis includes the drums, not just the visible cable, before any price is confirmed.
Cables replaced, tension balanced, and the door tested level before we leave, backed by written warranty.
“Cable kept jumping the drum every few cycles. Turned out the drum itself was cracked, replaced and fixed.”
“Caught the fraying cable during a routine call before it actually snapped. Appreciated the heads-up.”
“Door was jamming mid-cycle for weeks. Cable and drum issue, fixed in one visit.”
This almost always means one lift cable or spring has failed while the other side is still holding weight.
Both cables typically get replaced together to avoid a near-term repeat call.
We treat cable failures as priority calls given the safety risk involved.
Repeated slipping points to a drum issue rather than just the cable itself, which we'll inspect.
You'll get a confirmed price on-site once the technician inspects the full cable and drum setup.
Standard cable and drum stock means same-visit repair is the norm, not the exception.
