- A loud bang from the garage
- The door will not lift, or the opener strains
- The door rises crooked or feels very heavy
- A visible gap in the spring coil

Torsion and extension springs
Torsion springs mount on a bar above the door. Extension springs run along the horizontal tracks. We replace either type and check the cables, rollers, and balance at the same time. See also broken cable repair.
Why not do it yourself?
Garage door springs store a lot of energy and can cause serious injury when they release. Call 612-910-3032 and we will handle it safely.
Frequently asked questions
How long do garage door springs last?
Standard springs are commonly rated for around 10,000 open-and-close cycles, often 7 to 10 years in a typical home. Higher-cycle springs last longer.
Can I open the door with a broken spring?
We do not recommend it. The door is very heavy, and forcing it can damage the opener or hurt someone.
