Finally this morning i bucked up my courage released the spring and started from scratch.
Why does my garage door cable keep coming off.
When a cable slips off a drum the garage door won t work.
These cables can become frayed and worm requiring replacement.
Follow me in this video on how.
This could be the issue.
For example you can help check if the cables are the problem visually.
There is a troubleshooting portion that you can follow to help the experts identify where the problem originated.
These cables can also come off the pulley system causing malfunction in the opening and closing operation.
This work should be done by a qualified garage door contractor.
Is your cable off on your garage door.
Is it malfunctioning because of the cables or because of the operator.
This can be an easy fix.
Sometimes the cables become wound around themselves and can get caught.
The cables are the parts that do the work of lifting the door and releasing it when it is closed.
One of the cables came off my garage door.
This lead to hours of me avoiding tensioning the spring and much swearing.
The cables and springs on a door work together and there s a great deal of tension on the lines.
Garage door cables can spin off.
