SPRING REPAIR, EXPLAINED
Your springs do the heavy lifting
Garage door springs counterbalance the weight of the door so it can open smoothly by hand or with an opener. When a spring breaks, the opener may strain, the door may lift unevenly, or the door may not move at all.
Spring systems store substantial energy. Avoid forcing the door or handling the spring, cable, or winding hardware yourself. Our technician will identify the system, inspect the connected parts, and explain the safest repair.
!
If you heard a loud bang, stop using the door.
Keep people and vehicles clear. Do not disconnect or lift a heavy door unless a trained technician has confirmed it is safe. Call us and describe what you see.
COMMON WARNING SIGNS
Signs of a broken garage door spring
A spring problem is not always obvious from the floor. These symptoms are good reasons to stop and schedule an inspection.
02
The door will not open
The opener may hum or start to lift, but the door feels too heavy to move.
03
A visible gap in the spring
A separation in the coil above the door usually indicates the spring has broken.
04
The door looks crooked
Uneven lifting can point to a spring, cable, or balance issue that needs attention.
05
The opener is straining
A working opener is not designed to lift the full weight of a door without spring assistance.
06
Loose or displaced cables
Cables can lose tension after a spring failure. Leave them untouched until they are inspected.

Customer ReviewsSPRING REPAIR FAQ
Quick answers before you call
Can I open the door with a broken spring?
A broken spring can make the door extremely heavy and unstable. Leave it closed when possible and call before attempting to move it.
My garage door has two springs. Should both be replaced?
Yes. We recommend replacing both at the same time as springs have the same life cycle rating. When one breaks, the other is usually not far behind.
Will the opener lift the door anyway?
The opener is not intended to replace the spring system. Continuing to run it can strain the opener and create additional damage.
What information helps when I call?
Tell us whether the door is open or closed, whether you see a gap in the spring, and whether a vehicle is trapped inside.
