Garage Door Spring Replacement

Here is a fun fact, the average garage door weighs 200 to 400 pounds. While many of you may think the garage door opener handles most of the heavy lifting, it’s actually the garage door springs that provide the door with all of its lifting power. When your garage springs are broken or the wrong strength of spring is used, further operation of the garage door becomes very unsafe. When you are in need of a garage door spring replacement, we highly recommend that both springs be replaced in the same visit. This will save you money in the long run, since one spring will be new and the other will be older and break soon after. While garage door springs may appear to be small, they in all actuality perform all of the heavy lifting required to efficiently raise your garage door. So they may appear small, but they are powerful.

Our team of trained technicians have the expertise to safely and effectively replace all types of springs – whether torsion or extension – with top-notch quality parts. We have been performing this service on residential, commercial, and industrial garage doors alike for the past 24 years.

Garage Door Springs Have Limited Lifespans

Depending on which type of spring you garage door utilizes – torsion or extension – you can expect on replacing them at least once during your garage door’s lifespan. This is because the spring’s themselves have limited lifespans. A spring’s lifespan is measured in cycles, with one cycle being completed once the door has finished opening, and closing one time. Most springs are projected to last 10,000 cycles.

Once your springs break, no matter the reason, their tension is released and they will be incapable of operating your door. In most situations, if you’re home, you should be able to realize that they broke, as they do emit a loud popping noise. Again, please do not attempt to repair this situation without the help of a professional garage door repair company, such as Xpress Garage Doors.

 

The Importance of Garage Door Springs

Garage door springs support the entire weight of 300 plus pounds of your garage door. The springs are imperative to ensuring your door operates in the manner in which it should. There is no other single component as important to opening and closing your garage door!

There are two types of garage door springs – torsion and extension. Either of which is wound or stretched under an immense amount of tension. Tension enables the garage door springs the ability to open and close your garage door. Under no circumstances is replacing broken garage door springs a DIY project – immense tension correlates to danger.
