Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about your garage door springs? Find clear, expert answers below regarding safety, maintenance, and emergency protocols.
Can I open my garage door with a broken spring?
No. Attempting to lift the door manually or using your electric opener with a broken spring can burn out the opener motor, snap cables, or cause the door to crash down dangerously. Keep the door closed until a technician arrives.
Should I replace both garage door springs at the same time?
Yes. Garage door springs are manufactured to endure the exact same number of cycles (open/close actions). If one spring breaks, the other has experienced identical wear and will typically break shortly after.
How long do professional garage door springs typically last?
Standard garage door springs are generally rated for 10,000 cycles, which equates to roughly 5 to 7 years of normal daily use. We offer high-cycle, oil-tempered replacement upgrades rated for up to 20,000+ cycles to double that lifespan.
What is the difference between torsion and extension springs?
Torsion springs are mounted on a metal shaft directly above the closed garage door opening and wind tightly up to balance weight. Extension springs run horizontally along the overhead tracks on both sides and stretch out to generate lifting tension.
How can I tell if my garage door is out of balance?
Pull the emergency release cord while the door is closed, then manually lift it halfway up. A perfectly balanced door will stay in place by itself. If it falls completely down or shoots upward rapidly, your springs are under-calibrated or losing structural tension.
