Garage Door Cable Drum Replacement
Garage door cable drums play an important role in the lifting system of a torsion-spring garage door. The lift cables wind around the grooves of the drums as the door moves. If a drum becomes cracked, worn, or damaged, the garage door may operate unevenly or the cable may not remain properly positioned.
Replacing both the left and right cable drums as a pair can help maintain balanced operation when the existing drums are worn or damaged.
Check Compatibility Before Ordering
Before purchasing, confirm your garage door specifications, including:
- Door height

The 400-8 designation is intended for compatible garage door systems designed for doors up to approximately 8 feet high. Always compare the replacement drum with your existing hardware before installation.
