Garage Door Torsion Spring Replacement
Torsion springs stand as a pivotal component in the mechanics of garage door systems, providing the necessary torque to lift and lower garage doors with ease and precision. Unlike extension springs that extend and contract to open the door, torsion springs utilize torque to perform their function, winding and unwinding around the torsion shaft as the door operates. This method not only facilitates smoother and more balanced movement but also contributes significantly to the overall durability and lifespan of the spring mechanism. Given their critical role in ensuring the efficient and safe operation of your garage door, understanding torsion springs and their maintenance needs is essential for any homeowner.

Extension Spring Repair and Replacement
Garage door extension springs play a crucial role in the operation of residential garage doors, balancing the door’s weight as it opens and closes. Mounted along the garage door tracks, these springs stretch and contract to assist in lifting and lowering the door smoothly, ensuring reduced strain on the motor and other components. This system, while effective, relies on high tension, which can pose safety risks if not properly maintained, especially given that extension springs are under significant strain during operation.
Extension springs are designed with a specific lifespan, typically measured in cycles, with one cycle representing the door opening and closing once. Over time, wear and tear can diminish the springs’ effectiveness, necessitating regular maintenance to prevent failure. The system also includes safety cables to mitigate potential hazards by containing a spring should it break. However, due to the risks associated with the stored energy in the springs, repairing or replacing them requires precision and expertise.
For the safety and longevity of your garage door system, professional inspection, maintenance, and replacement of extension springs are paramount. Attempting to handle extension springs without the proper tools and experience can be dangerous. If you’re experiencing issues with your garage door extension springs or believe they may require service, contact Habpro Garage Doors. Our team of skilled technicians is equipped to safely manage all your extension spring needs, ensuring your garage door operates smoothly and securely.
