Cables vs straps has been a debate in the bifold door industry for many years. However, at Diamond Doors, we believe that cables are the safer and more reliable option. Here’s why. 👇
ELIMINATES COMMON CABLE FAILURES
Concerns about cable lift doors include cable safety and reliability. These issues are commonly caused by cable overlap and an overly complicated cable system with many moving parts. However, our innovative cable lift system eliminates all cable overlap and unnecessary moving parts, preventing cable failure due to regular wear and tear.
QUICKER DOOR OPERATION AND LESS MAINTENANCE
Our lift cable design also provides several other advantages. They have a more consistent opening speed, which means they are often faster than lift straps in similar settings, and they are easier to maintain as they don’t require frequent tensioning.
OFFERS AN INCREASED SAFETY RATING
Finally, our doors are manufactured with multiple cables and a 10:1 safety factor on every door. If one or multiple cables fail while the bifold door is open, it will still remain safely in place. (We still recommend only operating the door with all cables securely installed.)
