We check both cables and both drums together, since wear rarely happens in isolation.

Improper cable work while springs are loaded is a real injury risk.
A visibly fraying cable is treated as a near-term emergency.
Even a few loose strands mean a cable is close to failing under load — replacement cable gets sized to match your spring tension exactly.
A cable that's already snapped usually means the door dropped or hangs crooked — emergency replacement is stocked specifically because this can't wait.
A cable that's slipped off its drum causes uneven hanging — we re-seat it and correct the underlying cause.
