Garage Door Spring Repair

A broken spring makes a loud bang, and after that the door is far too heavy to lift by hand. Torsion and extension springs both wear out with use.

We replace the failed spring, then check the cables, rollers, and tracks so the door travels evenly again. Springs are matched to the weight of the door.

Do not try to open a door with a broken spring. The full weight of the door is on the opening mechanism, and it can drop without warning.

If you are not sure what is wrong, describe what you see and we will help you work out the right next step. Call 818-278-1102.

Signs to look for

If any of these sound familiar, the door is telling you something. A technician can confirm what has failed.

  • The door opens a few inches and then stops.
  • You heard a loud bang from the garage.
  • The door feels extremely heavy when you lift it.

Common questions

Yes. Describe what the door is doing, or is failing to do, and we will help you work out the likely cause before anyone is booked.

If the door itself is sound, a repair is usually the sensible route. If several panels, the springs, and the tracks are all failing at once, replacing the door can make more sense. We explain both so you can choose.

The technician inspects the door, explains what has failed, and carries out the agreed work. You can ask questions at any point.

Yes. The area around the door is cleared and covered before work starts, and the door is tested before we leave.

A failed spring usually announces itself with a sharp bang from above the door, and the door then feels very heavy or will not lift at all. If that has happened, leave the door closed and call us.

A door that is running well can still benefit from having its springs, cables, rollers and hinges checked, and from having moving parts lubricated. It is a sensible way to catch wear before it becomes a breakdown.

It helps to clear the driveway in front of the door and to park any vehicle outside the garage, so there is room to work and to test the door through a full cycle.
