Torsion & Extension

Broken Spring Replacement: Torsion vs. Extension

Torsion springs mount horizontally above the door opening and use torque to lift the door smoothly, while extension springs run along overhead horizontal tracks. We match exact wire gauge, inside diameter, and coil count to your door's physical weight for flawless balance.

Spring Safety Warnings & Why DIY is Dangerous

Garage door springs store massive mechanical tension under extreme torque. Attempting DIY spring replacement without professional winding bars and safety training can cause severe injury or property damage. Always trust certified technicians for safe spring handling.

Signs of a Broken Garage Door Spring

Common signs include: a loud gunshot-like bang from the garage, a visible 2-inch gap in the coil above the door, your opener motor straining or lifting only a few inches, or the door feeling extremely heavy when attempting manual operation.

Extended Durability

High-Cycle Spring Upgrades (20,000+ Cycles)

Standard builder springs only last 7,000 to 10,000 cycles (about 5-7 years). We install premium high-cycle oil-tempered springs rated for 20,000 to 30,000 cycles, providing over a decade of worry-free daily use even in Saskatchewan's extreme climate.

Upgrade to High-Cycle

Complete System

Two-Spring System Conversions & Cable Checks

If your door utilizes a single spring, converting to a dual-spring setup distributes weight evenly and prevents sudden door drops. When replacing springs, we also inspect and calibrate lifting cables and rollers.
