What Torsion Springs Do

Expert Torsion Spring Replacement

Torsion springs sit on a metal shaft above the door and wind up to counterbalance its full weight. They are under tremendous tension, which is exactly why they should only be handled by a trained technician.

When a torsion spring wears out or snaps, the opener can no longer lift the door safely. We remove the failed spring, install a correctly sized replacement, rebalance the door, and test everything so it runs smoothly again, usually within the same visit.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.

Torsion Spring FAQs

Torsion Spring Repair Questions

Can I use my garage door with a broken torsion spring?

You should not. With a broken torsion spring the opener is lifting the full weight of the door, which can damage the opener and is unsafe. It is best to leave the door closed and call us for a same-day repair.

Should both torsion springs be replaced together?

On a two-spring door we usually recommend it. Both springs have the same age and cycle count, so replacing the pair keeps the door balanced and saves you a second visit when the other one fails.

How long do torsion springs last?

A standard torsion spring is rated for around 10,000 cycles, roughly 7 to 12 years for an average household. If your door runs many times a day, we can install higher cycle-rated springs that last longer.

Why not just replace it myself?

Torsion springs store enormous energy and can cause serious injury if they release while being wound or unwound. The correct tools and technique matter, which is why this is a job for a trained technician.
