The D400-144 Garage Door Cable Drums 12′ Standard Lift are essential hardware components for sectional garage doors up to 12 feet high. Designed to wind and unwind lifting cables, these drums help balance the door’s weight and ensure smooth, safe opening and closing. Manufactured from heavy-duty cast aluminum, these drums provide strength, corrosion resistance, and a long service life, making them ideal for both residential and light commercial garage door systems.
