Describe the event without recreating it

Tell us whether a sudden noise, obstruction or uneven movement preceded the fault. Report the door’s current position and alternate access to the home. Do not pull on the cable, release brackets or repeatedly run the opener to show what happened.

Preserve the door where a suitable repair allows

A cable repair may retain the exterior design, but damage elsewhere can change that plan. If replacement becomes necessary and the property has historic or design controls, Delray Beach’s Development Services resources help identify the appropriate review. Do not equate a mechanical repair recommendation with approval for a different exterior assembly.

Your questions

Can a loose cable be put back without inspecting other parts?

The cause of the slack must be established first. The related lifting, guiding and attachment components may affect the correct repair.

Is a paint mark enough to order lifting-system parts?

No. Identification requires the actual door and component specification. Leave loaded-system measurement and selection to a trained technician.
