Why Is My Garage Door Hanging Crooked on One Side?

A garage door that hangs crooked or sags on one side is almost always caused by a broken or detached lift cable. Cables run from the bottom corners of the door up through the cable drums on each side of the torsion spring assembly. When one cable breaks or slips off the drum, weight distribution becomes uneven, causing the door to drop on the affected side.

Canadoor Garage Doors strongly recommends against operating a garage door with a broken or damaged cable. A detached cable under tension can snap suddenly and cause serious injury or door damage. Our certified technicians assess the full cable system, identify the cause of the cable failure, and carry out garage door cable replacement to restore safe, balanced door operation.
