Extension or torsion, left-wound or right-wound, spring replacement is precision work. We calculate the exact spring specification before winding anything into place.
We calculate wire gauge, coil diameter, and wind direction against your door's actual weight before installing anything.
We won't hide the recommendation to replace both, but the final call on timing is always yours.
Winding bars, proper sequence, and hands-on training are non-negotiable when a spring is under load.
The spring installed is chosen for durability, not just for passing the next inspection.
Each service below is handled by a technician trained specifically for this kind of repair, not a generalist guessing at it.
We calculate the correct torsion spring specification, then use proper winding bars and sequence to install it safely.
Extension springs are replaced in matched pairs with new safety cables, since a mismatched pair throws the door off balance.
A snapped spring means the door won't move safely. We carry multiple spring sizes on every truck for a same-visit fix.
A torsion conversion adds an overhead shaft and drums, trading exposed extension springs for a safer, more durable setup.
We estimate remaining cycle life based on door usage and spring age, so you can replace before a sudden failure strands you.
Describe the spring symptom, a loud bang, a sagging door, or a door that won't lift, and we'll schedule a technician.
Our vans carry the spring inventory needed for most jobs without a parts run.
Precise measurement comes first, then a confirmed flat price for the correct spring.
Spring installed, tension set, balance tested, and backed by written warranty before we leave.
“Spring snapped with a bang like a gunshot. Tech replaced both springs same day and explained why doing just one wasn't worth the risk.”
“They measured everything before quoting instead of eyeballing it like the last company did.”
“Balance test after the install showed the door lifts perfectly by hand now, opener disconnected.”
Cost depends on spring type, wire gauge, and whether one or both springs need replacing, confirmed as a flat price before work starts.
Replacing just one often means a second failure within months. We'll lay out the cost difference honestly.
Yes. A torsion spring under tension can cause serious injury if released without proper tools and technique.
Cycle life varies by spring quality and usage frequency, but a decade is a common lifespan for a well-matched spring.
Yes, an incorrectly sized spring forces the opener motor to compensate, which shortens its lifespan considerably.
Most spring replacements are completed same-day, often within one to two hours once the technician arrives.
Licensed technicians, flat-rate pricing, and a truck stocked for this exact job.
