#SPRING REPLACEMENT:

Typically, garage door springs can last anywhere from 7 to 9 years. Yet, with most people using their garage doors as their front doors, they can be worn in as little as 4 to 6. If you’ve gone outside these timelines and know how often you use your garage door, you should look at getting your garage door evaluated as soon as possible.

While most repairs on garage doors can be relatively easy to fix, replacing the spring can be extremely dangerous. Now, what’s so important to understand is that garage door springs can be extremely dangerous when they break. The reason for this is that as the door is opened and closed, it’s stretched out or uncoiled, which places stress on the springs. If the springs are old or damaged, any vulnerability could cause them to break — and then they will go flying at full force, potentially damaging property and even injuring anybody who’s in the vicinity.

It should be clear that this is a scenario you want to avoid at all cost. The only way to do so is to know the signs that your garage door springs are getting worn down. There are 2 types of commonly used garage door springs, torsion and extension. Here’s a look at how to know your springs are going out, so you can anticipate the need for broken garage door spring repair and avoid any sort of emergency situation.

TORSION GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS

Torsion garage door springs are most common. They use torque springs, which are tightly wound coils of metal, to generate the torque that’s needed to lift the garage door up when you open it. Because of this, they’re characterized by the turning motion you see when the garage door is raising or lowering. Torsion springs come in sets of between one and four, depending on the weight and size of the door. They require fewer parts and are more durable and less dangerous when they break than extension springs.

EXTENSION GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS

Extension springs expand and contract when your garage door is lowered or raised by motor or by hand. There are generally two of them that are attached to the garage door tracks that run along the ceiling on each side of the door. It’s important to know that they can behave volatilely upon breaking. This is why they’re always used along with safety cables — and why it’s extra important to know when you need extension garage door spring repair.
