One of the most common problems that our team at garage door repair Doctor Phillips faces is broken springs. There are several reasons why the springs of your door break. These may include extreme changes in temperature. It could also be because the springs may not have been properly maintained or adjusted.

What to Know about Springs

Two types of springs are used in garage doors. One is the torsion springs, which are attached right above the closed door, and the extension garage door springs, which are placed above the upper tracks on both sides. Manufacturers produce galvanized or oil tempered garage door springs with at least 10,000 to 15,000 cycles and are typically guaranteed for three to seven years. A cycle is one opening or closing. You can find springs that have 30,000 cycles, but the weight of the door increases pressure and reduce the life of the spring. When it reaches its maximum lifespan, garage door torsion springs replacement is recommended.  In most cases, when the springs break, the door is already down. However, it may also snap while the door is up or moving. If this happens, the door comes down rapidly. It is best not to attempt to move it in this condition because it is too heavy and could cause injury.
