The purpose of a garage door safety cable
Every garage door works with the help of torsion or extension springs. Keeping the springs firmly in place are safety cables to prevent the door collapsing down in event of spring damage or breakage. When a spring gives way the force of a collapsing garage door is enough to inflict fatal injury or serious damage to your car. Even worse is a snapped spring which can be thrown across a space with incredible force enough to penetrate a wall. Imagine what injury or damage is liable to be caused by such an event.
