Get The Right Rollers
Garage door rollers come in different sizes depending on the garage door. Rollers have to match your garage door. Otherwise, the door and the rollers will not work properly and may lead to bigger issues down the line for you and your garage door. You on your own can measure the rollers on your garage door if you feel comfortable performing the task. You are going to have to remove one of the current rollers on your garage door to get the correct size. Sometimes, you may not be able to remove the garage door rollers if the door is stuck, heavy, or if you cannot reach the rollers. If that is the case, try lowering the garage door to eye level so that you have easier access to the garage door rollers. When it comes to residential garage doors, the most common sizes for rollers are ¾ of an inch, one inch, and 2 ¾-inch rollers. You should also measure the length of the stem that the rollers are attached to. Older garage doors may need to have rollers built of a custom size. If your garage door is newer, however, you can look for replacement rollers yourself or contact professionals who are knowledgeable about El Paso garage doors to make sure that you are getting rollers of the correct size.
Nylon Vs Steel Rollers Vs Plastic
There are three different types of rollers you will mostly encounter when you are searching for rollers that match your garage door, nylon, steel, plastic. All three of these materials are used for residential and commercial garage doors, but each of them vary in durability and loudness. The more ball bearings a roller has, the less noise it will make when you open and close the garage door. Although having more ball bearings on a roller makes the garage door quieter, the price for these type of rollers with more bearings also increases. These rollers typically last about 15 years so if you would like to have a garage door that does not annoy you and or family members, you may decide it is worth the investment to get rollers of a higher quality to start with.
Nylon garage door rollers can last anywhere from 10-18 years. Nylon rollers are the most advanced rollers you can purchase they have about 13 ball bearings, which means they have the ability to run smoothly and quiet for an extended period of time. As for Steel garage door rollers they may last longer than the nylon rollers but they will not be as quiet since they mainly focus on durability over loudness, these rollers are most commonly used for commercial doors may last even longer than nylon garage door rollers. Plastic rollers are the most affordable option but do not do anything better then nylon and steel rollers they are the most common rollers you will see on a garage door and come with every new door that is ordered unless you ask for an upgrade.

The rollers are a major part of your garage door and over time with how much your door is being used those rollers will eventually break or wear out and will need an evaluation from a technician who performs garage door repairs in El Paso.

Cables are one of the most crucial components in your garage door without them your door would simply not be able to move. They transfer all the force from your torsion springs to your door and because of this are very dangerous when they fail. We highly recommend you do not try any repairs yourself on your El Paso garage door cables since they are constantly under heavy amounts of pressure. This is why every time your garage door spring breaks and needs to be replaced your cables will be loose and flimsy. Contact us if you think your garage door cables are damaged. Our technicians will head to your home, diagnose your garage door and inform you what can be done/
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.
Garage Door Cables play a huge role in making sure your garage door functions properly if you suspect your cables are malfunctioning call us for El Paso garage door repair. We can evaluate your garage door and determine whether your cables are the issue and repair or replace them depending on the situation.
