Garage door springs do most of the lifting every time the door opens. When they start to wear, the door usually gives you a few warnings first.
What to watch for
- The door feels heavy or slams shut
- The opener strains or stops partway
- You see a gap in a torsion spring above the door
- The door sits crooked when it opens
Why it needs a technician
Springs hold a lot of tension. Adjusting or replacing them without the right tools can cause injury. If you notice any of these signs, stop using the door and call for a repair.
What to expect
We check both springs, the cables and the rollers, explain what has worn and quote the fix before we start.
