Garage Door Spring Replacement: Essential Services for Your Home

Garage door springs are critical to the smooth and safe operation of your garage door, providing the necessary tension to lift and lower the door effortlessly. Over time, these springs can wear out, break, or lose their tension, leading to various issues that affect the functionality and safety of your door. At Door Pro Solutions, we specialize in garage door spring replacements, ensuring your system runs reliably and efficiently.

Understanding Garage Door Springs

There are two main types of garage door springs: torsion springs and extension springs.

• Torsion Springs are mounted above the garage door and work by twisting to lift the door. Known for their strength and durability, they are ideal for heavier doors.
• Extension Springs are located on either side of the door and extend to provide the lifting force. These are commonly used for lighter garage doors.

Both types of springs are essential for balancing the door’s weight, allowing it to open and close smoothly. When these springs fail, it can make the door difficult to operate or cause it to fall unexpectedly, posing serious safety risks.

Signs You Need Spring Replacement

Recognizing the signs of failing garage door springs is important for maintaining safety and functionality. Look out for these common indicators:

• Difficulty Opening or Closing the Door: If the door struggles to open or close, the springs may have lost their tension or broken.
• Loud Noises: A loud bang when operating the door could indicate a spring has snapped.
• Visible Damage: Look for signs of wear such as rust, gaps, or deformation. If you spot any of these issues, it’s time to consider replacement.
• Unbalanced Door: If the door is uneven when closed or doesn’t stay in place when partially open, the springs may be failing.
