Broken Springs

 

Next to garage door panels springs are the most important part of a garage door. Springs are responsible for balancing the garage door making it possible to lift the garage door easily. Well balanced springs also extend the life of garage door openers. Garage door openers are designed to lift the difference of the weight of a balanced door and will wear out easily if the springs are not properly maintained.  If your spring is broke it is very important to not run the opener and to have the spring replaced immediately by a qualified technician.

One of the down sides to springs is that they are designed to go up and down a certain amount of times, usually 10,000 times or around 5 – 7 years depending on how often the door is used. If the garage is a double car garage and only one spring is broke it is a good idea to replace both springs because if one spring is broke it means that the other spring is not far behind. By replacing both springs it saves the home or business owner the cost of having to pay for labor on a second service call.
