Garage Door Spring Repair in Lorena, TX

A standard torsion spring replacement takes about 60 to 90 minutes on site. If you have a dual spring system we replace both, because the second is the same age as the one that just broke and will usually follow within months.

Springs are rated in cycles and both of yours have done the same number. Replacing one leaves the door unbalanced and puts the old spring under more strain, so it tends to fail soon after. Doing both in one visit costs less than paying for two separate call outs.

We'd strongly advise against it. A torsion spring holds enough stored energy to break bones, and winding bars slipping is a genuine hospital risk. It's one of the few garage door jobs where the tooling and the technique matter more than the part.

Look above the door at the torsion spring. If you can see a two inch gap in the coil, the spring has broken and the door is far too heavy to lift, so stop trying. If the spring looks intact, check the safety sensors near the floor for a blinking light or an obstruction, then check the opener has power. If the motor runs but the door doesn't move, the drive gear or trolley is usually the culprit.

Often, yes. If your door model is still in production we can source a matching section and swap it, which is usually far cheaper than a full replacement. On older or discontinued doors a match may not exist, and once two or more sections are damaged a new door normally works out better value. We tell you which situation you're in before you commit.
