The job of the torsion spring is to counter-balance the weight of your garage door. A properly balanced door will feel almost weightless, although it very well may weigh 200 to 300 pounds. Without the help of the torsion spring lift system, a garage door is extremely difficult to lift. All springs eventually will break. Springs are generally rated to last 10,000 cycles. For most people that translates to about 7 to 10 years. If your spring has broken in less time, while under normal use, then you may have an improperly rated spring for the size of your garage door. We will always provide you with the correct size torsion spring(s) so that you can expect as many years of use as possible.

It is not recommended to try and open your door by hand, or by opener, if you have a broken spring. Attempting to use your garage door opener without the help of the springs can damage the trolley, rail, gear, or motor. If you do succed in opening the door, be aware that disengaging the opener by pulling the pull rope will allow the door to come crashing down to the ground with deadly force. We offer quick garage door repair in Houston, TX usually within just one hour. Give us a call at (281) 748-9542 and we will provide you with immediate help to replace your broken garage door spring.
