GARAGE DOOR REPAIRS
Springs • Cables • Openers • Bearings & Complete System Repairs
You might think of garage door components like springs, cables, openers, and bearings as just small parts of a larger system — but the reality is that each one plays a critical role in keeping your garage door operating safely and smoothly.
When even one component begins to fail, it can quickly affect the balance, performance, and reliability of the entire garage door system.
At Acclaim Garage Doors, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing all major garage door components. Whether you’re dealing with broken springs, damaged cables, opener problems, or worn hardware, our experienced technicians provide professional solutions designed to restore safe, dependable operation.
Understanding How Garage Door Systems Work
Garage doors may look simple from the outside, but they rely on a carefully balanced system of mechanical parts working together. Springs carry the weight of the door, cables help guide and balance movement, bearings allow smooth operation, and the opener provides automated convenience.
If any of these components become worn, damaged, or misaligned, you may notice:
The door struggling to open or close
Loud grinding or snapping sounds
Uneven or jerky movement
The opener running without lifting the door
Increased strain on other components
Addressing these issues early helps prevent larger repairs and keeps your garage door operating safely.
Garage Door Cable Repair
Garage door cables may seem like minor components, but they are actually essential to maintaining balance and stability. The cable system consists of tightly wound wires that connect the door to the torsion spring system, helping distribute weight evenly during operation.
When cables begin to wear or break, the entire garage door can become unstable.
When Do You Need Garage Door Cable Repair?
Garage door cables require proper lubrication and regular maintenance to stay in good condition. Over time, normal use can lead to fraying, rusting, or breakage. Signs you may need cable repair include:
Visible broken or worn cable strands
Garage door opening unevenly or leaning to one side
Opener motor running but door not moving
Sudden loss of balance or tension
Ignoring cable issues can lead to more severe damage or even safety risks. Professional repair ensures proper tension and alignment.
Broken Garage Door Spring Repair
Broken garage door springs are among the most common problems homeowners experience. Springs carry the majority of the door’s weight, making it possible to open and close safely and smoothly.
Without properly functioning springs, your garage door may become extremely heavy or completely inoperable.
Types of Garage Door Springs
Torsion Springs – Mounted above the door, designed for durability and smooth lifting.
Extension Springs – Installed along the sides of the door, stretching and contracting during operation.
Both types play an essential role in maintaining balance.
Signs of Broken Springs
Loud snapping or banging sound
Door won’t open or lifts only partially
Door feels unusually heavy
Visible gap in torsion spring
Spring replacement requires specialized tools and training due to the high tension involved. Attempting DIY repairs can be dangerous — professional service is strongly recommended.
Garage Door Opener Repair & Installation
Garage door openers provide convenience and security, but when they malfunction, daily routines can quickly be disrupted. We repair and install high-quality openers, including trusted brands like LiftMaster, known for reliability and long-term performance.
Common Opener Issues We Fix
Remote or keypad not responding
Safety sensors misaligned
Motor or gear wear
Chain or belt drive problems
Door reversing unexpectedly
Excessive noise during operation
Choosing the right opener and ensuring proper installation helps extend the life of your entire garage door system.
Bearings, Rollers & Hardware Repairs
Small hardware components like bearings and rollers often go unnoticed — until they start causing problems. These parts reduce friction and allow the door to move smoothly along its tracks.
Worn bearings can cause:
Loud squealing or grinding noises
Jerky movement
Increased strain on the opener
Premature wear on springs and cables
Replacing worn hardware can significantly improve performance and extend the life of your garage door.
