- Will this fit my 8-foot garage door?
- It is made for doors 8 feet high with torsion springs. The assembled cable is 9 feet 6 inches, which gives the extra length needed to route over the drums and attach to the bottom bracket.
- Is this the same as Clopay 1120110?
- Yes, it is listed as equivalent to Clopay part 1120110. Check your door's model and cable routing before ordering to be sure.
- What do the open loop and stop sleeve do?
- The open loop hooks onto the bottom bracket or pin, and the stop sleeve holds the cable end in place. Both come already assembled on the cable.
- How many cables do I need?
- Most torsion spring doors use two cables, one per side, and this listing is for a single assembled cable. Order two if you are replacing both.
- Can I install it myself?
- Replacing a cable means releasing torsion spring tension, which can cause serious injury if done wrong. Many owners hire a technician; experienced DIYers use proper winding bars and follow the manufacturer's instructions.
- What is the cable made of?
- It is galvanized steel, seven strands of 19 wires each. That construction is flexible enough to run over pulleys and drums and resists rust.
