Garage Door Spring Replacement
Wouldn’t it be nice if owning a garage door was simple? It’s frustrating dealing with problems that can spring out of nowhere, especially the headache broken garage door springs can be. Most standard torsion springs are rated for 10,000 cycles or 10 years, whichever comes first.
The torsion springs allow the garage door to function smoothly and properly. The tremendous tension that the spring is under, which is why springs are very dangerous to be around, is what allows the garage door to operate. This is why it is recommended to replace both springs when only one is broken.

Garage Door Spring Repair Tips
Don’t Force The Door Open or Close: Doors are heavy (weighing up to 500 lbs). To avoid injury, it is best to leave it be.
Leave Opener Engaged: If the door is open, the opener’s arm may be the only thing holding the garage door open. Disengaging the arm could cause the door to come slamming down.
Call A Professional: While the internet can provide a vast amount of articles and videos showing you how to handle this project, be aware this is a very risky and dangerous project.
