Why Garage Door Springs Matter
Garage door springs are the backbone of your garage door system, counterbalancing the heavy weight of the door and enabling smooth, easy operation. When a spring breaks, your door can become stuck, slam shut unexpectedly, or even pose a serious safety risk to your family and property. That’s why prompt, professional spring repair or replacement is essential for every homeowner.
Signs You Need Spring Repair or Replacement
Common signs of a failing garage door spring include:
- The door feels heavy or won’t open at all
- Loud snapping or banging noises from the garage
- Visible gaps, rust, or stretching in the spring
- The door opens unevenly or only partway
If you notice any of these issues, stop using your garage door and contact a professional immediately. Attempting to operate or repair a broken spring yourself can be extremely dangerous.
Our Expert Garage Door Spring Services
At Garage Door Repair Saratoga Springs, our technicians are trained to repair and replace all types of springs, including torsion and extension springs. We use high-quality, durable springs designed for long-lasting performance and safety. Our team will:
- Safely remove broken or worn springs
- Install new springs matched to your door’s weight and size
- Test and balance the door for smooth, reliable operation
- Inspect related components for additional wear or damage
We recommend replacing both springs at the same time if one has failed, as the other is likely near the end of its lifespan.
Preventative Maintenance for Longer Spring Life
Regular maintenance helps extend the life of your garage door springs and prevents unexpected breakdowns. We recommend:
- Annual professional inspections
- Lubricating springs with a silicone-based or white lithium spray (never WD-40)
- Checking for rust, corrosion, or unusual noises
Routine care not only reduces the risk of sudden failure but also keeps your entire garage door system running smoothly.
