Your Spring Broke. Here's What Happens Next.

When a torsion spring breaks you'll usually hear it — a loud bang from the garage. The door will feel extremely heavy or won't open at all. Don't force it. Pull the red manual release cord to disconnect the opener and call us. Operating a door with a broken spring is a genuine safety risk.

When We Leave, Your Door Is Better Than It Was

We don't just restore what you had — we upgrade it. Every torsion spring we install is powder-coated, custom-made, and rated for 40,000+ cycles. That's 4X the industry standard. Every spring is sized to your door's exact weight, branded with our name, and backed by our 3-year parts and labor warranty.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions

Most spring replacements take 45 minutes to an hour. We carry springs for all door sizes on our trucks so same-day service is almost always available.

Yes — garage door springs are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury if handled incorrectly. This is not a DIY repair. Our technicians are trained, certified, and equipped to replace springs safely every time.

Almost always yes. Both springs have the same age and cycle count. If one broke, the other will likely follow within months. Replacing both now is more economical and prevents a second service call.

Torsion springs mount horizontally above the door on a metal shaft — they're more modern, more reliable, and longer lasting. Extension springs run along the sides of the door and stretch during operation. We install torsion springs as standard on all replacements.

Springs have a finite cycle life — every time the door opens and closes counts as one cycle. Most industry-standard springs are rated for 10,000 cycles. Our springs are rated for 40,000+ cycles. Cold NH winters accelerate metal fatigue, which is why spring failures are more common in late winter and early spring.

3-year parts and labor warranty on all torsion spring replacements. 1-year on extension spring replacements. If the spring fails within the warranty period we fix it at no charge.

Common signs: a loud bang from the garage (often the spring snapping), door feels extremely heavy or won't open, door opens only a few inches, door closes too fast, door looks uneven or crooked, visible gap in the spring.

We strongly recommend against it. The spring counterbalances your door's weight — without it, the door can weigh hundreds of pounds. Pull the red manual release cord and try lifting gently. If it feels too heavy — stop and call us.
