Garage Door Drum & Cable Replacement in Colorado

Homes in Colorado need reliable garage doors. They protect your property from theft and the state’s often severe weather. Any problems with the integrity of your doors can cause major headaches. When something goes wrong, the garage door’s drums and cables usually cause failure. If this is the case for you, take a chance on Aeonic Garage Doors for the replacement services your home deserves.


Understanding Garage Door Drums and Cables?

Garage door drums and cables allow your garage doors to function. Positioned at the top, the drums work with cables to lift and lower the door smoothly. As the door opens, cables wrap around the drums, guiding the door along its tracks.


These parts wear out over time, but Colorado’s fluctuating weather can put extra strain on your parts. Worn drums may lose grip, and frayed cables can become a safety hazard. Ignoring these issues could lead to uneven door movement or a complete breakdown. Regular checks and timely replacements are necessary to keep your garage door safe and functional, preventing potential hazards and ensuring it lasts longer.


Signs You Need Garage Door Drum and Cable Replacement

Keeping your garage door in top shape is all part of maintaining a healthy and happy home. Watch for signs like grinding or squeaking noises as you use it, as this might mean your drums or cables are wearing out. If one side of your door moves slower than the other, that's another red flag. Visible issues like frayed cables or rusted drums also signal it's time for a replacement. Ignoring these can lead to more significant problems, including complete door failure, which could damage your vehicle or property.

Rollers

We’ve all heard the Garage that sounds like a train is coming. The Click-Clack…Click-Clack… of every section as it makes its way around the track overhead. Maybe it sounds like a scrape and scratch or a faint rattle that’s just annoying enough to know… that’s not right… Rollers are an important part of the door, and how it operates. They can not only make the door run noisily but can leave the door racked or cause a situation where the door is completely left hanging above if not given the proper attention. Currently there are four types of rollers being installed. The fifth one listed on our page is the latest and greatest. The rollers is soo great that not only is it our roller of choice but it comes with a manufacturer backed lifetime warranty.

Drums & Cables

Your garage door opening and closing begins with your drums and cables. These components work in

unison to make sure the door opens and closes with uniform movement. Because of their reliance on

each other, it’s vital to have these components inspected with any routine inspection. The position of

your garage door can indicate potential issues with cables or drums. If the garage door is crooked,

struggles to open, or causes a scraping noise, reach out to one of the experts at Aeonic Garage Doors to

Maintenance For Your Garage Door & Opener

  • The Drop Test

    While the garage door is closed, pull the red emergency release rope to disengage the

    emergency release lever. This will detach the door from the operator rail. Manually lift the door halfway,

    and then “drop” the door. How did the door react? Did it fall slowly? Did it slam shut? Did it stay in the

    same position? Take note of the result, and then perform the process again from the fully-open position.

    Take note of what happens once again.

    This is testing the door’s balance. Garage doors are heavy, and if your door isn’t holding its position at

    the halfway point or at the top, the spring may need adjustment or replacement. Garage doors are an

    important part to the safety of your home and your vehicles, so you need trusted parts that will last a

    long time.

  • Tune Up The door

    Garage doors usually move up and down multiple times per day, and that can add up over

    time. This repeated use causes hardware to get loose. You should perform a garage door inspection at

    least twice per year to make sure all of the nuts and bolts are tight to the hinges, tracks, and brackets.

    The nuts and bolts may be in different sizes, so be sure to use the proper tools when performing this

    garage door service.

  • Lubricate

    Lubricating the door will allow the moving parts to keep moving with the same consistency. It

    will free rollers, hinges, and bearings from seizing during harsher weather, and will also rid those parts

    of dirt and grime. Lubrication will also prevent the shrill (and loud) squeaks and squeals that no one likes

    to hear. Aeonic Garage Doors recommends Clopay Synthetic Pro Lube, which can be purchased in the

    garage door section of most hardware stores.

  • Check the Operator & Reverse Functions

    After completing the other steps mentioned above, reattach the

    carrier to the operator rail trolley. Run the garage door to the open position, and place an item like a

    wooden two-by-four on the garage floor where the door will close. When you run the door to the closed

    position, the should close on the board and reverse on impact. This is an important safety feature, so it’s


    crucial that it reverses on impact. If it continues to try and push through the board, an adjustment is

    needed.

  • Safety Sensors

    Your safety sensors should be 6 inches or less from your garage floor, and nothing

    should be blocking their line of sight. Typically, there are indicator lights in two different colors – and

    those will commonly be green and red, or green and amber/orange. Both should glow solid in color.

    Attempt to close the door, and while it’s closing, impede the sensors. The door should automatically

    reverse. Keep these sensors clean, as even spider webs can interfere with them functioning properly.

    This is the cause of our most common complaint, so check the sensor lights first. If one is solid and the

    other is flickering or out, the sensors likely need an adjustment. If both are out, call the trusted garage

    door technicians with Aeonic.

Drums & Cables

Cables and Cable Drums are Essential to the door’s operation. The door begins and ends with these in a uniform movement. It is important to have these inspected during a service as these two parts together pull the door from the ground on up. It is not common knowledge to inspect the cables or drums, so it is important to note the garage is sitting crooked, struggling or are hearing a scraping noise similar to a light scratching on a chalk board as the door goes up or down. If these issues are present, it is strongly recommended that your Aeonic professional technician is called to evaluate and fix the issue.

Bearings

Bearings should be addressed during a spring replacement. Garage door bearings replacement is a necessary maintenance task that should be done periodically to keep your garage door functioning properly. These bearings are located on the hinges and rollers and are responsible for enabling smooth movement of the garage door. When bearings wear out, they can cause the door to become noisy when opening and closing, which can be annoying. Failing to replace worn bearings can also cause damage to other parts of the garage door, and may eventually lead to costly repairs.
