Broken Garage Door Spring, Cable and Drum Replacement on N 69th Ave in Peoria
A homeowner near N 69th Ave in Peoria called after one of the garage door springs snapped in half. Eric replaced both springs, replaced an old loose cable, and installed new drums because the existing drums were worn. After the repair, the garage door was opening and closing smoothly again.
What Happened to the Garage Door
One of the garage door springs had snapped in half. With one spring broken, the spring system could no longer support and move the garage door the way it should.
Eric also found an older garage door cable that was loose and drums that had become worn. Instead of replacing only the broken spring, the repair addressed the other worn parts in the system at the same time.
