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.
This is the one repair where licensing and training genuinely protect you, not just the door.
Higher cycle-rated springs cost a bit more upfront and last considerably longer under daily use.
Whatever brought you here, one of these service lines is the fix, and one call gets a technician moving.
We calculate the correct torsion spring specification, then use proper winding bars and sequence to install it safely.
Worn extension springs stretch unevenly over time. We replace both sides together with new safety containment cables.
Sudden spring failure gets same-day priority since a broken spring makes manual operation dangerous.
A torsion conversion adds an overhead shaft and drums, trading exposed extension springs for a safer, more durable setup.
Springs rated for 10,000 cycles wear predictably. We'll tell you honestly how much life is left before it becomes an emergency.
A quick description of the spring symptom gets the right parts loaded on the truck before arrival.
Technicians arrive with multiple spring sizes and wire gauges already stocked, ready for common configurations.
We measure the door weight, wire gauge, and coil diameter, then quote the exact spring spec before work begins.
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.”
The exact number depends on your door's specs, but you'll see it in writing before any spring is touched.
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.
This is one of the more dangerous DIY repairs in a home due to the stored energy involved.
Higher cycle-rated springs can last well beyond a decade under normal household 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.
