Signs Your Garage Door Spring Is Broken
Garage door springs counterbalance the weight of your door, allowing it to open and close effortlessly. When a spring breaks or loses tension, operating the door can become difficult or hazardous.
Common signs of a broken spring include:
- Loud snapping or banging noises from the garage
- Garage door won’t open properly
- Door feels unusually heavy
- Uneven or crooked garage door movement
- Opener struggles or stops functioning
- Visible gaps or breaks in the spring
If you notice any of these issues, stop using the garage door immediately and contact a professional technician.
Why Garage Door Springs Fail
Garage door springs endure extreme tension daily. Over time, wear and tear weaken springs until they break.
Common causes of spring failure include:
- Age and natural wear
- Rust and corrosion
- Lack of regular maintenance
- Frequent high-cycle daily use
- Improper spring sizing
Most garage door springs last between 7–14 years, depending on usage and upkeep.
Types of Garage Door Springs We Repair
Torsion Spring Repair
Torsion springs are mounted above the garage door and use precise tension to raise and lower the door smoothly. These springs are the most commonly found on modern garage doors.
Benefits of torsion springs include:
- Smoother door operation
- Better door balance
- Extended lifespan
- Enhanced safety and durability
Extension Spring Repair
Extension springs run along the sides of the garage door tracks and stretch as the door moves. Though less common on newer garage doors, we continue to repair and replace extension springs for many homeowners in the Turlock and Merced areas.
Professional Spring Replacement You Can Trust
