Garage Door Spring Repair

Garage door springs counterbalance much of the door's weight. When a spring breaks or loses proper tension, the door may become extremely heavy, move unevenly, or fail to open.

Signs of a spring problem

A visible gap in a torsion spring, a loud snap from the garage, a door that only lifts a few inches, or a door that suddenly feels much heavier can point to a spring or counterbalance problem.

Why spring work is different

Garage door springs operate under substantial tension. Spring adjustment and replacement are not good trial-and-error DIY tasks because uncontrolled movement can cause serious injury or property damage.

What to do next

Avoid repeatedly operating the opener on a door that appears to have a broken spring. Call and describe what you see so the service visit can be planned around the likely spring-system issue.
