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.
We won't hide the recommendation to replace both, but the final call on timing is always yours.
A loaded torsion spring can cause serious injury if mishandled. Our technicians are trained specifically on safe unwinding and winding procedure.
The spring installed is chosen for durability, not just for passing the next inspection.
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.
Extension springs are replaced in matched pairs with new safety cables, since a mismatched pair throws the door off balance.
A snapped spring means the door won't move safely. We carry multiple spring sizes on every truck for a same-visit fix.
Older doors with extension springs can be converted to a torsion system for smoother, quieter, longer-lasting operation.
We estimate remaining cycle life based on door usage and spring age, so you can replace before a sudden failure strands you.
A quick description of the spring symptom gets the right parts loaded on the truck before arrival.
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.
“Diagnosed the exact wire gauge needed and had it on the truck already. No parts run, no delay.”
“They measured everything before quoting instead of eyeballing it like the last company did.”
“Balance test after the install showed the door lifts perfectly by hand now, opener disconnected.”
Cost depends on spring type, wire gauge, and whether one or both springs need replacing, confirmed as a flat price before work starts.
We'll tell you the second spring's estimated remaining life so you can decide with real information.
We strongly recommend a licensed technician handle any spring work given the forces involved.
Higher cycle-rated springs can last well beyond a decade under normal household use.
Yes, an incorrectly sized spring forces the opener motor to compensate, which shortens its lifespan considerably.
Same-day service is standard, and the repair itself usually finishes within a couple of hours.
