Balance and Tension

Garage Door Spring Adjustment

Over time, springs lose tension and the door falls out of balance. An unbalanced door is hard on the opener and can be unsafe to operate.

A spring adjustment re-tensions the springs and rebalances the door so it holds its position, travels evenly, and puts less strain on every other part of the system.

Warning Signs

Signs Your Door Needs Balancing

The door slams shut

It drops too fast instead of lowering gently.

The door drifts open

It will not stay put halfway, a classic balance problem.

It feels heavy by hand

With the opener disconnected, a balanced door should lift easily.

Uneven or jerky travel

The door hesitates or moves unevenly as it opens.

We used Atlantic Ocean Garage Doors to replace our weather strip and they helped us the same day. They even came back to help readjust the garage door after we realized we had a little to much tension on the door to over compensate for the uneven driveway that was out of their control to fix. Michael was very helpful and knowledgeable.

Spring Adjustment FAQs

Spring Adjustment Questions

What is the difference between adjustment and replacement?
Adjustment re-tensions and balances springs that are still good. Replacement swaps out springs that are worn or broken. We will tell you which yours needs.
Why is my door unbalanced?
Springs naturally lose tension with use, and age and temperature swings speed it up. An adjustment brings the balance back.
Can an adjustment stop my door from slamming?
Often yes. A door that slams is usually under-tensioned or out of balance, both of which an adjustment corrects.
How often should springs be adjusted?
We check balance during any tune-up. If you notice slamming or drifting in between, it is worth a quick adjustment.
