A torsion spring failing is loud, sudden, and unmistakable. Our technicians match the correct wire gauge and wind direction to your door's actual weight, not a guess off a chart.
A mismatched spring either fails early or overloads the opener. We size it correctly every time.
When one torsion spring fails, the other is on the same cycle clock. We recommend replacing both and explain why.
Winding bars, proper sequence, and hands-on training are non-negotiable when a spring is under load.
We install springs rated for the cycle life your usage actually demands, not the cheapest option on the shelf.
Each service below is handled by a technician trained specifically for this kind of repair, not a generalist guessing at it.
We calculate the correct torsion spring specification, then use proper winding bars and sequence to install it safely.
Worn extension springs stretch unevenly over time. We replace both sides together with new safety containment cables.
A snapped spring means the door won't move safely. We carry multiple spring sizes on every truck for a same-visit fix.
A torsion conversion adds an overhead shaft and drums, trading exposed extension springs for a safer, more durable setup.
We estimate remaining cycle life based on door usage and spring age, so you can replace before a sudden failure strands you.
A quick description of the spring symptom gets the right parts loaded on the truck before arrival.
Technicians arrive with multiple spring sizes and wire gauges already stocked, ready for common configurations.
We measure the door weight, wire gauge, and coil diameter, then quote the exact spring spec before work begins.
The door is verified balanced and safe to operate before the job is called complete.
“Diagnosed the exact wire gauge needed and had it on the truck already. No parts run, no delay.”
“Converted our old extension springs to a torsion system. Door is noticeably quieter and smoother now.”
“Preemptive spring check caught one close to failure before it snapped. Glad I called before it stranded us.”
Cost depends on spring type, wire gauge, and whether one or both springs need replacing, confirmed as a flat price before work starts.
On a torsion pair, we recommend both since the second spring is on the same wear cycle, but we'll explain the reasoning and let you choose.
This is one of the more dangerous DIY repairs in a home due to the stored energy involved.
Higher cycle-rated springs can last well beyond a decade under normal household use.
A spring that's too weak puts extra strain on the opener with every cycle, accelerating wear.
A standard spring swap typically takes under two hours on-site with the correct part in stock.
