Where Herriman cables actually wear
At the bottom bracket, where winter moisture sits. A Herriman door that freezes to the slab and is then driven by the opener also shock-loads both cables — one more reason a frozen door gets freed with warm water, never with the button.
Two rules travel with this repair everywhere, Herriman included: cables replace as a matched pair, and a jumped cable means finding what jumped it — a bent drum, uneven tension, a track fault — because re-seating alone is a repeat appointment on a delay.
