Signs You Need Garage Door Cable Replacement

Cables don’t always break suddenly — they often show signs of wear first. Watch for these indicators:

  • The door lifts unevenly or gets stuck halfway
  • Visible fraying or rust on cables near the bottom corners
  • The door appears slanted when opening or closing
  • You hear grinding, scraping, or snapping sounds
  • The door won’t move even though the opener runs

If you notice any of these issues, stop using your door and call Rissland right away. Attempting to operate a door with a damaged cable can be dangerous.
