Garage Door Spring Replacement
If you heard a bang like a gunshot from the garage and now the door will not lift, a spring has almost certainly broken. Springs do the heavy lifting on every overhead door; the opener only guides it. We replace torsion and extension springs across Westminster, Arvada, Thornton and Broomfield, usually the same day you call.
Torsion Springs
Wound to the exact door weight.
Extension Springs
Replaced in pairs with safety cables.
Standard builder springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles, which is seven to ten years for a family that uses the garage as its front door. We weigh the door, measure wire size, inside diameter and length, and wind springs that balance it precisely. On two-spring doors we replace both, because the second spring is the same age and usually fails within months.
Why the right spring matters
A mismatched spring makes the opener strain, wears out cables and can let the door drop. Correct sizing is what makes a repaired door feel light and quiet again.
Spring work is genuinely dangerous: a wound torsion spring stores enough energy to break bones. Please leave it to a trained technician with proper winding bars. We carry the common sizes on every truck, so most spring calls are finished in about an hour.
