Cable Repair for Carencro Garage Doors

Carencro's housing mostly dates to the late 1980s, which means original cable drums are aging out. We travel from Lafayette, 7 miles away, for cable repair and replacement.

Parts We Carry

For a door built in the Carencro area, the cable setup is almost always the standard extension or torsion-spring system that came stock on houses put up in the mid-to-late 1980s. That means galvanized aircraft cable, stamped steel cable drums, and the small aluminum stop fittings crimped at the bottom bracket. We carry replacement cable in the common diameters used on residential doors from that era, along with drums, pulleys, and bottom brackets to match. The region's climate is mild with only occasional freezes, so we're not stocking cold-weather cable coatings the way a shop up north would - the failures we see here are fatigue and corrosion from humidity, not ice. One limit worth saying plainly: if the drum itself is pitted or the cable has jumped the drum and chewed into the flange, we replace the drum rather than try to re-seat the cable. A re-seated cable on a damaged drum fails again within months, and that's not a repair worth charging for.','
