Torsion & Extension Spring Replacement
We handle both torsion spring systems (mounted above the door) and extension springs (mounted on the sides). Our technicians are trained to safely replace springs of all sizes and ratings.
Signs you have a broken spring:
- Garage door won't open at all
- Door opens a few inches then stops
- Loud bang from the garage (spring snapping)
- Door falls fast when closing
- Visible gap in the torsion spring coil
- Cable hanging loose from the drum
We also offer high-cycle springs (25,000–100,000 cycles) that last significantly longer than standard springs — a smart upgrade if your door gets heavy daily use. All spring replacements come with a warranty on parts and labor.
Frequently Asked Questions
Standard springs last around 10,000 cycles — roughly 7–10 years. High-cycle springs can last 3–10x longer depending on the rating.
No — springs are under extreme tension and replacing them without proper training and tools can result in serious injury. Always call a professional.
We recommend replacing both springs at the same time. If one has broken, the other is likely near the end of its life as well — replacing both saves a second service call.
