Another Happy Customer. I have used Kurt’s service before at our previous home. Well we moved and this house had its original door from 1956 finally give out. Kurt came over and did a temporary fix to where we could use it until the new door came in. Wouldn’t use anyone else. Don’t waste your time going to the big name company’s. Use this local company and save yourself some money because I can promise you’ll be happy with his service.

FAQ

Yes. You may be tempted to save money on parts and labor by replacing just one spring, but you’ll likely need to replace both when one spring breaks. Garage doors have two springs, one on either side of the door. The springs exert the force that makes the door light enough to be lifted. 

Garage doors with broken springs should not be opened. Doors in this condition can be difficult to lift because the garage door opener loses the support springs provide in lifting and lowering the door. … We don’t recommend attempting to open a garage door with a broken spring but sometimes it’s an absolute emergency. 

As the door opens, the springs relax, releasing energy to help lift the door. When replacing tension springs, it is recommended that both springs be replaced and matched because the older, unbroken spring will have lost some of its tension from years of use. 

How long do garage springs last, typically? The average garage door spring, if correctly installed, should last about 10,000 cycles of opening and closing. If you only go in and out of your garage once a day, that means you should expect a broken garage door spring around 14 years after the spring is first installed. 

A standard garage door spring should last between seven and 12 years before the stress it experiences through usage requires it to be replaced. You can reduce the risk of garage door spring damage by applying a small amount of spray lubricant to the garage door’s components twice a year. 

A garage door with extension springs will have a safety cable on each side of the door running through the spring and attached to the wall or ceiling. … Extension springs are under a great deal of tension, and if one was to break, it could cause serious injury.

Identifying the Problem with Your Springs

Your Garage Door either has Torsion Springs or Extension Springs. If you want a New Spring Setup, or One Spring, the Right Wound Spring setup will include a New Torsion Spring and Torsion Hardware with a Winding Bar that connects to the Cable Drum via a Safety Cable and may vary depending on the Door Size and inside diameter.  

Garage Door Torsion Springs

Based on the weight, size, and strength of garage doors, they may contain one to four torsion springs. These large springs are located right above the garage door opener on a metal shaft. The springs are twisted to a specific torsion configuration in relation to the assembly, and aluminum drums are installed on each end of the metal shaft. Early-set, standard, steel rolling-door, or torque-master springs are all options you can consider if you want to consider a torsion spring.

Here are different types of Torsion Springs including:

Standard torsion springs are frequently found on residential garage doors, with lighter doors only requiring one spring for effective operation.

arly-set torsion springs are similar to standard torsion springs, except that they are mounted in the middle of the torsion shaft.

Steel rolling-door torsion springs are normally seen in commercial and industrial buildings. These springs are contained within the torsion barrel.

Torque-master torsion springs are enclosed in the torsion shaft and are held in place by a winding cone that sits at the end of each torsion rods.  

Garage Door Extension Springs

Extension springs are long, narrow springs that run parallel to your door’s horizontal tracks. When the door is pushed, they store energy by expanding or stretching. These can be double-looped, clipped-end, or open-looped.

Your garage door must not be opened or closed utilizing the automatic operator even if only one torsion or extension spring breaks. Although certain openers can lift the garage door, you run the danger of damaging the operator as well as the door. Additionally, if any other sections of the door break while it is in motion, the door is going to fall to the ground.

You need to know the different types of Extension Springs:

Open-looped extension springs are the weakest style of extension spring and rely on an open wire at the end. If this wire is broken, the entire spring needs to be replaced, even if this is the only part of the mechanism that is faulty.

Double-looped extension springs are stronger than open-looped, featuring two coils at the end of the spring that connect to the pulley and eyebolt.

Clipped-end extension springs are the most robust of the three. They tend to last longer and are frequently used on garage doors that weigh more than 200 lbs.
