What Do the Garage Door Springs Do?
Garage doors, some of which weigh hundreds of pounds, are simply too heavy to lift on your own. That’s why they come with springs. These are responsible for bearing the weight of the door. Without them, getting your equipment to work would be difficult to impossible.
There are two types: extension and torsion. Extension springs are the older variety and lift the door via a system of counterbalance cables and pulleys. When you hit the opener, the springs contract, allowing movement.
Torsion springs, on the other hand, unwind slowly as the door lifts. Instead of using pulleys and cables, the stored tension does all the work by turning a shaft, which then moves the cable drums. These provide better balancing than extension springs do.

Signs It’s Time To Call Us
Of course, upgrades aren’t the only thing to worry about. No matter how well you take care of your equipment, something is bound to go wrong eventually, and you need to be prepared.
Sometimes, though, it’s tough to know whether you need garage door spring repair. Here are the telltale signs that it’s time to call our experts:
- Your system opens extremely slowly. It’s normal for it to open slowly at first, then speed up as the springs kick into gear. But if yours moves sluggishly throughout the entire process, something is likely wrong.
- The structure opens partially and then stops. This can happen when the emergency shutoff system detects a problem with parts of the equipment.
- You spot a gap between the coils of the spring. A gap like this occurs because the equipment can’t wind properly. You may still be able to get the door open, but we don’t recommend it. The motor will have to work harder, which could cause it to burn out. Additionally, the cables may become detached from the drum.
- The top of your equipment is bent or crooked. This can happen if only one spring is broken. The good spring will continue trying to get things open, even though the other one can’t do its job, resulting in bending.
- The structure jerks suddenly or falls without warning. This commonly occurs when you’re dealing with broken springs.
- You hear a loud bang when operating the system. What you’re hearing may be the sound of the spring snapping.
