Call (720) 724-9412Signs of a broken or weak garage door spring
- Door suddenly feels very heavy
- Opener strains or only lifts a few inches
- Visible gap in a torsion spring
- Door drops or will not stay balanced
- Loud bang from the garage followed by a non-working door
Spring replacement should match the door
The correct spring depends on the door weight, height, drum and lift system. Replacing a spring with the wrong specification can leave the door poorly balanced and shorten the life of other components.
Check the rest of the lifting system
When a spring fails, cables, drums, bearings and rollers should also be inspected for damage or abnormal wear before the door is returned to service.
Frequently asked questions
Can the garage door opener lift a door with a broken spring?
It may try, but that can overload the opener and does not solve the underlying lifting-system failure.
Should both springs be replaced?
That depends on the system, spring age and condition. The goal is a correctly balanced door rather than a one-size-fits-all replacement rule.
