Types of Garage Door Springs

Torsion Springs

Located above the garage door, torsion springs use torque to lift the door. They're more durable and safer than extension springs.

  • Mounted on header above door
  • Longer lifespan (15,000-30,000 cycles)
  • Better balance and control
  • More expensive but worth it

Extension Springs

Extension springs run along the tracks on both sides of the door. They stretch and contract to operate the door.

  • Mounted on both sides of door
  • Standard lifespan (10,000 cycles)
  • More affordable option
  • Common in older garages

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does garage door spring replacement cost?

Spring replacement costs vary based on spring type, door size, and whether you need one or two springs. Torsion springs typically cost more than extension springs due to their durability and complexity. Contact us for a free, no-obligation quote based on your specific door.

How long do garage door springs last?

Standard torsion springs last 15,000-30,000 cycles (roughly 7-12 years with normal use), while extension springs typically last 10,000 cycles (5-7 years). High-cycle springs are available for longer lifespan.

Should I replace both springs at once?

Yes, we recommend replacing both springs even if only one broke. Springs wear at the same rate, so if one fails, the other is likely close behind. Replacing both ensures balanced operation and prevents a second service call soon after.

Can I still use my garage door with a broken spring?

No, never operate a garage door with a broken spring. The door becomes extremely heavy and can cause serious injury or damage to the opener. Disconnect the opener and keep the door closed until repairs are made.

Do you offer same-day spring replacement?

Yes! We understand that a broken spring means you can't access your garage. We offer same-day service in most areas. Call us early in the day for the best availability.

What warranty do you provide on spring replacement?

We stand behind our work with a comprehensive warranty on both parts and labor. Standard springs include a manufacturer's warranty, and we also offer premium high-cycle springs with extended warranties. Ask your technician for specific warranty details.
