The Types of Garage Door Cables
Each Garage Door is going to have lifting cables which are the cables that are located on the each side of your garage door. These cables are always attached to a pulley at the top of your door and are responsible for lifting and closing your garage door. These cables work together and make sure the door is balanced and operating smoothly. If any one of these cables break, your door will not be able to open or close properly and can even lead to dangerous situations. The other cable is not really a cable but more of a red rope that is attached to the arm of your garage door opener, if for whatever reason you lose power and your garage door opener is not working simply pull this rope, this will unlock your garage door from the garage door opener and allow you to move the door freely manually up and down.
What Causes Cables To Break
There are many reasons why your garage door’s cables break/malfunction. Whenever they do stop functioning properly however, they will slip out of their place from the drums up top which will cause your entire garage door to malfunction. Springs with un-proper tension, broken springs, or sudden impact to your garage door due to a failing safety sensor. All these are reasons why your cause cable can break or malfunction.
If your springs are not adjusted properly to the weight of your garage door, the cables will have a high risk of slipping out their grooves on the drums and cause your door to malfunction. Springs must have the proper amount of tension in them to where both the lifting cables on each side are stretched and have no slack available. When a torsion spring is broken both of the lifting cables will be very loose and have no Tenison at all since the spring lost all its tension when it broke. Your door may appear crooked or having trouble opening and closing if this happens as well.
Cables can also become undone when they slip of of their appointed grooves on their drums. Which may lead to your door de-railing and hanging off one side. In a two spring system if one spring snaps and the other is intact your door will become substantially heavier and will begin slamming down when closing. If this if not handled quickly it may lead to even more damage to the opener and garage door panels.
