Garage door cable repair typically costs $100–$375 in 2026. If a cable snapped or the door hangs crooked, stop using it right away. The cables work with the high-tension springs, so a loose cable can let the door drop or twist. Keep people and cars clear and call a pro.
Garage door cables help lift and lower the door evenly. When a cable frays, slips, tangles, or snaps, the door can hang crooked, jam in the track, or become unsafe to move. This is one of those problems where forcing the opener can cause more damage.

The local pro tests the door after the repair to make sure it moves evenly.
As soon as a cable is frayed, loose or snapped. The cables are connected to the springs, so they carry the same dangerous tension, and a door with one failed cable can drop or twist without warning.
