ОтветитьWhy would there be loose tension on a cable when the door is up, but proper tension when the door is down?
ОтветитьGreat video, especially the safety aspect but please lube up that ratchet!!! 😂😂

ОтветитьWhen garage door is up, how much tension is suppose to be on the coil of wire? My garag doors wires popped off when it hit something that I had stacked up next to the door guides and I cracked the nuts loose to try even the tension while the door was up but it isn't working properly, any help would be much appreciated 🙏🏼
ОтветитьYour video was very helpful!

ОтветитьWhat’s the torque on the set screws? I d rather not to guess the number of turns. Thanks
ОтветитьAwesome! Thank you!
ОтветитьI tried to redo my cable a couple weeks ago and left the vice grip on when I put the new cable on 🤦 I'll be ordering two new cables to install. My only question is can I put new cables just as shown in this video (garage door down and only winding on first groove)? I've seen other that show garage door in up position stating to wind the whole drum with the cable...
ОтветитьGot same length torsion spring and followed the steps for replacement of springs; but issue I see is garage door only lift up till 1 foot , stay stuck and does not move up regardless how much manual lift force I put in (in manual mode). please guide. I tried going up to 33 quarter turns (16.5 half turns) as 31 or 30 turns was not helping, rotation was clock wise for 33 quarter turns.. my old part was 218 wire x 29 long spring and new one is 225 wire and 29 long spring.
ОтветитьHere are my problems. I hope you can help me. My electric garage door opener had a short. I have been forced to manually open and close the door. This went well for a few months. One day after opening my door (21 ft. in length) it got stuck. A little higher on the right side. I tried for an hour to get it to move with no luck. The cable had come out of its wheel. In desperation I cut the cable on the right side. This did not solve anything. It would not move. I knew the middle part had these tightly wound cables and to stay clear of them. I hid behind some heavy boxes filled with other items (for protection) and used a long handled looper to cut the other cable. BANG it came off and put a hole in the drywall next to the garage door. Better it than me! Now I thought I could open the door. The door is shut like there are 500 pounds of bricks on it. Any SAFE suggestions besides calling a pro. Thanks to the government everything is so expensive I want to try to do as much as I can.
Ответитьjust weight your cables and back-wind the spring.
Ответить@danielwake2430:
I had a similar thought, and you're right about getting fingers caught...
I used something with a better bite than vice-grips would be preferable: a pipe-wrench. I grabbed the tube just inboard of the sheave to avoid deforming the end outside the bearing, and rolled it back that 1/8 to 1/4-turn I needed to get the wire back in the right groove.
As the cable is going down to the bottom bracket, should it be at a slight angle? Or dead straight ?
ОтветитьI hope your insurance drops you when people start getting hurt.
If the tracks are level when the door is installed this doesn't happen unless you push the door open too high.
Always hire a professional.
good instruction .. good video work. Thanks for putting it on here.
ОтветитьWhat if your cable goes into a bolt with a pin how do you remove
ОтветитьGreat video!
ОтветитьHello friend, what are the principal garage door suppliers you can recommend on Texas?
ОтветитьIs there any way to lower a garage door with the opener disconnected, Figured I would start that way first goes as far as i can but still have a 3/4" gap.
ОтветитьMy torsion cable keeps coming off, is their a way to adjust the torsion drumb so it doesn't come off anymore?
ОтветитьGreat clip
Ответитьshould the cable be pretty tight after spring replacement? Mine are, it seems the spring torques the pulley, then pulls the cables tight, even if I try to loosen them. is that ok?
ОтветитьSomeone will die watching this lol
ОтветитьJust a little confused on why the locking pliers were used, I would of thought they should be on the other side of the wheel not outside the wheel. what was the point of using the locking pliers? Did it stop something from turning?
ОтветитьThank you. I did mines differently, but your video helped understand the mechanics and safety issues that come with. Thank you 🙏
ОтветитьI just wonder how many people had to go to to the ER because of your DIY tips regarding garage door springs . People die because of people like you . And that is is a fact .
ОтветитьThank you for the clear video. I have a question about my garage door, my door is 7 feet 4 inch height, can I use the 8 ft door cable for replacement?
ОтветитьDo you do the same thing on the other side?
ОтветитьThank you for posting this. Just saved me some money!!!
ОтветитьNice video!
ОтветитьMy caple is in the place but is rolling half way
ОтветитьMy problem as pet your video, my cable has slack when the door is in the up position, it is tight when in the down position, should I raise the door and repeat as your instructions on in the up position ?
ОтветитьThank you. Short and sweet, you've saved me time, effort and frustration. Cheers
ОтветитьHow do yo u fix the door when both cables come off the rollers? I tried to do it, but it looks like the spring has no tension so it didn't work when I tried to lower the door.
ОтветитьHey thanks a lot buddy
ОтветитьI'm from California, I called for a service repair and the guy gave me an estimate of 600$ hundred dollars. So I said no thank you, and decided to fix it myself. I'm 4 month pregnant and I rather to spend 600$ hundred on my baby. Thanks to your video I did it and can't believe I just did that. Thank you very much Sir for sharing what you know.
ОтветитьThank you sir , for the valuable information.
ОтветитьMy door springs are broken and door is closed. Can I run the cable to the bottom of the door since I am unable to lift the door at this point. Great video.
