When your garage door starts acting more like a stubborn mule than a well-oiled machine, it's often due to issues with the cables and tracks. These components are crucial for smooth operation but can turn into real headaches when they malfunction.
Your garage door's cables and tracks work together like peanut butter and jelly; one without the other just doesn’t make sense. The cables help lift and lower your door smoothly by winding around drums, while the tracks guide it on its path without swinging or misaligning. But even this dynamic duo can run into trouble over time.Ignoring problems with these parts is like inviting chaos into your home. A broken cable could mean your garage door won't open, leaving you stranded outside (or worse, inside). Misaligned or damaged tracks can lead to uneven closing, which might not only damage your car but also compromise the security of your home. If you encounter this problems don't hesitate to give us a call at Campbell Garage Door and Gates Repair.
