A spring problem is not always obvious from the floor. These symptoms are good reasons to stop and schedule an inspection.
A torsion spring can release with a sharp noise even when nobody is operating the door.
The opener may hum or start to lift, but the door feels too heavy to move.
A separation in the coil above the door usually indicates the spring has broken.
Uneven lifting can point to a spring, cable, or balance issue that needs attention.
A working opener is not designed to lift the full weight of a door without spring assistance.
Cables can lose tension after a spring failure. Leave them untouched until they are inspected.
You need a working door—not a sales pitch. We focus on the problem in front of us and help you make a confident repair decision.
SPEAK WITH 630 OVERHEADBuilt for homeowners throughout Chicago's western suburbs.
We evaluate the complete lifting system, not only the visible break.
The repair and recommendations are explained in plain language.
When the door is stuck, a direct conversation is often the fastest next step.
A broken spring can make the door extremely heavy and unstable. Leave it closed when possible and call before attempting to move it.
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.
The opener is not intended to replace the spring system. Continuing to run it can strain the opener and create additional damage.
Tell us whether the door is open or closed, whether you see a gap in the spring, and whether a vehicle is trapped inside.
