What Do Springs Really Do?

They do the heavy lifting—so you don’t have to.

Garage door springs balance the weight of the door. That’s why opening it feels smooth, whether you’re hitting the button or lifting it by hand.

But when a spring breaks? That balance disappears. The door gets heavy, off-track, or stuck entirely. It’s not just inconvenient—it’s unsafe.

How To Estimate How Long Your Garage Door Springs Will Last!

  • How many average times a day do you open your garage door?
    • Example: Our family averages opening our garage door 4 times a day
  • Multiply that number by 365.
    • Example: 4 x 365 = 1,460
  • This will equal the number of cycles you use your garage door a year.
    • Example: 1,460 cycles a year
  • How many cycles do your springs have?
    • Example:  State 48 Garage Doors standards are 10,000 cycle springs and 30,000 cycle springs
  • Divide the number of cycles your spring has by the number of cycles you use your garage door a year.
    • Example: 10,000 cycle spring / 1,460 cycles a year = 6.8 years
  • This will estimate the number of years your springs will last
    • Example: By opening our garage door an average of 4 times a day and equipping our garage with a 10,000 cycle spring we will most likely be replacing a broken spring in about 6.8 years

Warning Signs You’ve Got a Spring Problem

Don’t ignore the signs—your garage door is talking.

  • The door won’t open or feels stuck
  • You heard a loud “bang” out of nowhere
  • It slams shut too fast or jerks while moving
  • The opener hums, but nothing happens
  • You’re lifting it manually—and it feels like dead weight
  • The door’s crooked or off-balance

🚫 PSA: Never try to replace a broken spring yourself. These coils are under serious tension and can cause serious injury without the right tools and know-how.

The Right Spring for the Job

Short-term fix or long-term peace of mind?

We’ll help you pick the right spring based on your door’s size, use, and budget. Some homeowners prefer basic springs for quick fixes, while others go with long-life upgrades that can handle 20,000+ open/close cycles.

Busy garage? We’ll set you up with heavy-duty springs built to last.

Torsion vs. Extension Springs

Not all springs are created equal—but we handle them all.

  • Torsion Springs: Hanging on the wall above the door, they are the modern, sturdy and suitable for most houses.
  • Extension Springs: Installed along the sides, these are common in older setups and still work great when maintained.

Our techs will check your system, walk you through your options, and install the safest, strongest springs for your setup.

Every Spring Fix Comes with a Full Safety Check

We don’t just swap springs—we make sure the whole system’s solid.

  • Inspect both springs if your door has a pair
  • Check your cables, rollers, and opener for hidden wear
  • Lubricate all moving parts for smooth, quiet performance
  • Run a full test cycle to make sure everything’s working perfectly

When we’re done, your door will feel like new again.
