Can I repair a garage door cable myself?
Unless you enjoy flirting with danger and ER visits—don’t. Garage door cables are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury if handled wrong. Always leave cable repair to trained professionals.
How much does garage door cable repair cost?
The cost can vary depending on the door size, type, and whether other parts (like drums or springs) are also affected. But at Hughes, you’ll always get clear, upfront pricing with no hidden fees. Call us for a free quote: +1 (970) 293-2916.
What causes garage door cables to break?
Age, rust, wear-and-tear, misaligned tracks, or too much strain from a faulty spring system. We don’t just swap the cable—we figure out why it failed and prevent it from happening again.
Can you replace just one cable?
Technically yes, but we recommend replacing both for balance and safety. Replacing one worn cable while leaving the other old and frayed could cause more damage down the line.
How long does cable repair take?
Most repairs take under an hour—we show up with the right tools and parts to get it done in a single visit.
Do you offer emergency garage door cable repair?
Absolutely. We offer 24/7 emergency repair services across Colorado, because broken cables don’t care what time it is.
The Snap Was Loud. Our Fix Is Silent.
What Do Garage Door Cables Actually Do?
Garage door cables work hand-in-hand with the springs to lift and lower your door safely. When one snaps or slips off, your door can get stuck, slam shut, or tilt dangerously—especially if the spring tension goes wild.
Ignoring it? That’s a hard no. You’re dealing with hundreds of pounds of weight and serious injury potential.
Warning Signs Your Garage Door Cable Needs Repair
Garage door cables are under intense tension — when they wear out or snap, the whole system becomes unsafe. Here’s how to know something’s up:
One side of the garage door is sagging or crooked
Door won’t open or slams shut suddenly
Cable is visibly frayed, rusted, or unraveling
Cable has come off the drum or pulley
You heard a loud bang—and now the door’s not moving right
Don’t try to fix this yourself. Garage door cables are under hundreds of pounds of pressure — improper handling can be extremely dangerous. Call a trained technician to handle it safely and correctly.

Garage Door Cable Repair vs. Replacement
Not all cables need to be tossed—sometimes they’ve just slipped out of place or need minor adjustment. We’ll only recommend a full replacement if it’s absolutely necessary.
If you’ve had multiple cable issues, we’ll check the entire system: springs, drums, rollers, and tracks. Because cables don’t fail for no reason—they’re often the symptom, not the root problem.
