Can I use a door with a snapped cable?
No. The door can jam, tilt or fall. Stop using the opener and call a technician.
Is a cable repair the same as a spring repair?
They are different parts, but they often fail together, so we inspect both.
What causes cables to snap?
Wear, rust, a door out of balance and a worn spring that makes the cable carry more load.
Do not risk a broken spring or cable
Springs and cables hold stored force. Call a certified technician instead of trying it yourself.
