As the Greater Toronto Area’s premier garage door company since 2002, we’ve established our leadership of the market not only through the best sales, installation and ongoing maintenance plans anywhere, but also because we strive to educate every customer we talk to about garage door related problems and what the solutions may be.

We’re often asked about the best way to solve common annoyances  – like a remote control unit that doesn’t work (check the battery), or why hinges are squeaking (they may need to be lubricated) – but one thing we’ll never recommend is a customer taking on dangerous installation or maintenance work on their own. And in this respect, undertaking a garage door cable repair project is extremely dangerous. Why? Because garage door cables are under significant pressure, and if they fly loose while attempting a repair the consequences could be deadly.

In order to begin a garage door cable repair, one our experienced technicians will inspect the door and cables, make sure the garage door is secured and open, powered down and detached from the garage door opener unit. Only then will we provide an estimate on how much the repair will cost and how long it will take to complete.

Our recommendation – whether you call us or someone else – is to always go with an experienced professional for this kind of work. Garage door cables themselves are inexpensive compared to an unexpected visit to a hospital emergency room, so do the right thing and call SMART DOORS today
