Spring Replacement Service

Professional replacement of broken torsion and extension springs for correct balance and safety.

What this service covers

Springs carry the entire weight of the door and are the single most dangerous component to work on. They are also the most commonly mis-sized part in cheap repairs. We measure wire size, inside diameter and length, then install a matched set and rebalance the door.

  • Torsion and extension springs replaced in matched pairs
  • High-cycle upgrades available for doors used several times a day
  • Door rebalanced by hand so it holds at waist height with no drift
  • Opener force and travel re-set after the new springs are wound

Spring Replacement Service questions

Why replace both springs when only one broke?
Springs wear at the same rate. Replacing one leaves an unbalanced door and the second spring usually fails within months.
Can I replace a spring myself?
We strongly advise against it. A wound torsion spring stores enough energy to cause serious injury.
