Why Garage Door Springs Are So Important
Your garage door springs carry most of the door’s weight during opening and closing. When they’re working correctly, you barely notice them. But when they break? The entire system struggles. Broken or weakened springs:
Cause uneven door movement
Put extra strain on the opener
Make manual opening nearly impossible
Can lead to serious safety hazards if ignored
Garage door spring replacement is one of the most common (and most critical) services we perform.
Signs Your Garage Door Spring Is Broken
Not sure if the issue is with your spring? Watch for these clear signs:
Door feels unusually heavy when opening
You hear a loud snap or bang from the garage
The door only opens a few inches and stops
Visible gap in the torsion spring
Door slams shut instead of gliding down
If any of these sound familiar, call a professional for immediate garage door spring repair.
Should I Repair or Replace My Garage Door Spring?
In most cases, a broken spring must be replaced, not repaired. Springs are under high tension and wear out over time—repairing them is not safe or effective. Our technicians will:
Identify the correct spring type and size
Safely remove the damaged spring
Replace both springs (if needed) to maintain balance
Perform a full safety check of your system
Replacing springs restores your garage door’s performance and safety instantly.

Types of Garage Door Springs We Service
We carry and install both major types of springs:
Torsion Springs (mounted above the door): Common in newer doors, last longer, more balanced
Extension Springs (run along the sides): Found in older doors, slightly less durable, still widely used
No matter your door type, we have the right springs on hand for same-day spring replacement.
The Dangers of DIY Spring Repairs
Attempting to fix garage door springs on your own is extremely risky. Springs are wound tightly under high pressure—if one snaps or uncoils unexpectedly, it can cause serious injury. Always hire a licensed expert for this job. Our technicians are trained, insured, and experienced in handling dangerous spring replacements safely.

Frequently Asked Questions About Garage Door Spring Repair
How do I know if my garage door spring is broken?
If the door is heavy, only opens partially, or you heard a loud snap, your spring is likely broken.
Can I open my garage door with a broken spring?
It’s unsafe. Forcing it can damage the opener or cause injury. Call a professional immediately.
Should I replace both springs or just one?
We recommend replacing both for balance and longevity—if one breaks, the other is likely worn too.
How long do garage door springs last?
Most springs last 7–10 years or around 10,000 cycles, depending on usage and maintenance.
What’s the difference between torsion and extension springs?
Torsion springs are mounted above the door and offer smoother operation. Extension springs run along the sides.
How long does spring replacement take?
A typical garage door spring replacement takes about 1–2 hours, including testing and safety checks.
Is garage door spring repair covered by warranty?
Yes! We back our spring replacements with a warranty for parts and labor for your peace of mind.
