Springs carry the full weight of the door, cycling tens of thousands of times before wearing out. When one fails, we replace it correctly, not just quickly.
A mismatched spring either fails early or overloads the opener. We size it correctly every time.
When one torsion spring fails, the other is on the same cycle clock. We recommend replacing both and explain why.
A loaded torsion spring can cause serious injury if mishandled. Our technicians are trained specifically on safe unwinding and winding procedure.
Higher cycle-rated springs cost a bit more upfront and last considerably longer under daily use.
Each service below is handled by a technician trained specifically for this kind of repair, not a generalist guessing at it.
We calculate the correct torsion spring specification, then use proper winding bars and sequence to install it safely.
Extension springs are replaced in matched pairs with new safety cables, since a mismatched pair throws the door off balance.
Sudden spring failure gets same-day priority since a broken spring makes manual operation dangerous.
Older doors with extension springs can be converted to a torsion system for smoother, quieter, longer-lasting operation.
Springs rated for 10,000 cycles wear predictably. We'll tell you honestly how much life is left before it becomes an emergency.
Describe the spring symptom, a loud bang, a sagging door, or a door that won't lift, and we'll schedule a technician.
Our vans carry the spring inventory needed for most jobs without a parts run.
Precise measurement comes first, then a confirmed flat price for the correct spring.
Spring installed, tension set, balance tested, and backed by written warranty before we leave.
“Spring snapped with a bang like a gunshot. Tech replaced both springs same day and explained why doing just one wasn't worth the risk.”
“They measured everything before quoting instead of eyeballing it like the last company did.”
“Preemptive spring check caught one close to failure before it snapped. Glad I called before it stranded us.”
Cost depends on spring type, wire gauge, and whether one or both springs need replacing, confirmed as a flat price before work starts.
On a torsion pair, we recommend both since the second spring is on the same wear cycle, but we'll explain the reasoning and let you choose.
We strongly recommend a licensed technician handle any spring work given the forces involved.
Most springs are rated for around 10,000 cycles, roughly seven to nine years of typical daily use.
Correct spring sizing protects both the door balance and the opener motor long-term.
Most spring replacements are completed same-day, often within one to two hours once the technician arrives.
