Ramp Door Cable and Spring Replacement in Morris County NJ — Make Your Ramp Door Safe to Use Again

The most obvious sign is a snapped cable. You will see the broken cable hanging loose or coiled on the ground. If a spring breaks, the door becomes extremely heavy to lift because the spring assist is gone. Fraying cables are a warning sign that a snap is coming soon. If your ramp door slams down hard when you open it instead of lowering smoothly, the springs or cables are not doing their job. A door that takes two people to lift when it used to be a one person job means the assist mechanism is worn out. These are all situations where you need replacement parts before someone gets hurt.

We inspect all cables, springs, and pulleys on your ramp door system. We replace both cables as a pair even if only one is broken, because the other is likely just as worn. Same with springs. We use heavy duty replacement cables and springs rated for your door weight. We inspect the pulleys for wear and replace them if the sheaves are grooved or the bearings are rough. After installation, we adjust the tension so the door opens and closes smoothly with the right amount of assist. We test the full operation multiple times to make sure everything works properly and safely. Worn cables often mean the hinges took abuse too. We offer ramp door hinge and hardware service as part of the job.

The cost depends on the number of cables and springs needed, the size and weight of your ramp door, and whether pulleys also need replacement. Standard cable and spring replacement on a typical enclosed trailer ramp is a straightforward job. Larger or heavier doors on car haulers and equipment trailers may require heavier components.
