Spring Replacement FAQ
How do I know if my garage door springs need replacement?
Common signs include the door becoming very heavy to lift manually, the door not opening completely, visible gaps in the spring coils, or hearing a loud bang from the garage. If your door appears unbalanced or your opener is struggling, the springs may need replacement.
Should I replace both springs if only one is broken?
Yes, we typically recommend replacing both springs at the same time. If one spring breaks, the other is likely nearing the end of its lifespan. Replacing both ensures balanced operation and prevents another breakdown shortly after the repair.
How long do garage door springs typically last?
Torsion springs typically last 15,000-20,000 cycles (about 7-12 years with normal use), while extension springs last 10,000-15,000 cycles. Factors like door weight, usage frequency, and maintenance affect lifespan.
Is garage door spring replacement dangerous?
Yes, garage door spring replacement can be extremely dangerous due to the high tension in the springs. We strongly recommend professional replacement. Our technicians have specialized tools and training to perform this work safely.
