⚡Is Spring Repair Necessary for Your Garage Door? Be Aware of These Alerts

  • The door only lifts halfway or won’t open.
  • When raised by hand, the door feels unusually heavy.
  • A loud crack or bang indicates that a spring probably broke.
  • Cables seem unconnected, limp, or loose.
  • The opener strains, falters, or stops in the middle.

 

A spring issue is indicated by any of these. Wait to operate the door until it has been inspected; otherwise, you run the danger of breaking the opener and other parts.

I called at 9:45 am and Trent arrived 45 minutes later. What I thought might be a battery problem turned out to be a broken motor on an outdated system. Trent gave me options and got to work immediately, no delay, no waiting for parts, no stopping until the job was finished several hours later. He even helped me set up my app and programmed my openers and keypad. He was friendly, efficient, polite and did a quality job. I will definitely use them again. C F

I received servicing of my garage door and the Optimal scheduling representative was able to get the repairman out within a couple of hours. Matt was very professional, thorough and prompt in the repair. He was able to explain everything clearly and show me the options I had. Matt and optimal garage doors saved the day and now I can go to my Christmas party!

I called them in a panic. My garage door stopped operating. Their comprehensive website drew me to them. Trent came out right away and gave me a thorough run down of our system and possible issues. He referred me to another company that dealt with our type of door but offered a number of alternatives to fit various budgets if we decided to replace. Great company, responsive and very professional.

I cannot even begin to put into words how grateful I am for the service from this company. My garage wouldn't open. Luckily we found optimal garage doors. Matt arrived on time, he was very friendly and knowledgeable, quickly repaired a broken spring, and serviced my track and door. It's stressful when this happens, but now I feel so relieved. Thanks guys, you have a customer for life.

🛠️​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Right Springs for the Job

Since garage doors vary in weight and size, it is necessary to have the right springs installed so that the door is properly balanced.

If a service technician installs a wrong spring on your door, this will cause your whole garage door system to be harmed, including the life of your opener which will be made shorter drastically.

That is the reason why Optimal technicians only install the highest quality, correctly fitted springs for the door’s weight and verify their work by performing a balance test.

Springs and cables work as a system , if a spring has snapped, there is often a need for cable replacement at the same time.

What You Need to Know Before Your Garage Door Spring Gets Replaced

Q: Should I replace one spring or both?

Always go for both. Springs get worn out at the same pace, if one breaks, the other will follow. Changing both together will save money compared to making two separate services, it will keep the door balanced, and it will prevent the opener from suffering.

Q: How long does spring replacement take?

Generally, a garage door spring replacement can be done within 1 to 2 hours during the same service. Our technicians are equipped with both torsion and extension springs in their service trucks at all times, so there is no need for customers to wait for parts.

Q: Is it dangerous to have a broken garage door spring?

Definitely. Sprung take the entire weight of the door, if the spring is broken the door will be very heavy and unsafe to operate. Plus, it will immediately put stress on your opener and cables. You should stop using the door and call a garage door expert. 

Q: Can I replace a garage door spring myself?

We strongly not recommend this. Springs of garage doors are wound up to extreme levels of tension, a wrong release of the tension can cause serious injuries. Besides professional tools, training and experience are necessary to make the correct and safe tensioning of the springs. The cost of repairing your garage door spring is significantly lower than the cost of an emergency room visit. Garage door spring repair DIY is the most dangerous mistake a homeowner can make.
