The Role of Garage Door Springs
Weighing around 200 pounds on average, your door relies on springs with high tension for balance and smooth operation. Worn out springs can place an enormous load on the garage door opener. We specialize in oil-tempered torsion springs, known for their durability and longevity with proper lubrication. While galvanized torsion springs are an alternative, they may fatigue sooner. Extension springs, although rare, can be less effective and pose significant danger if they break due to their high tension. Thankfully, we are experts in every type of spring and all types of garage door hardware.
Signs of Worn and Broken Springs
Understanding when your springs need attention is crucial for maintaining the functionality and safety of your door and garage door opener. Common signs include a heavy door, uneven balance, or the door falling when open. If you observe any of these symptoms, it’s time to consider professional spring repair services.
Garage Door Spring Replacement
When it comes to residential garage door spring replacement, safety is paramount. It is not safe to replace your own, as the spring tension is high and can be hazardous if mishandled. Our team at 4 Sons emphasizes the importance of entrusting spring repairs to trained professionals to avoid potential injuries.
While spring replacement should be left to the experts, there are simple maintenance tips you can follow. Regularly lubricating your springs every 6 months to a year with a petroleum or silicone-based spray lubricant can contribute to their longevity and smooth operation while reducing the likelihood of needing repairs.
Quality Springs and Warranty
Our residential garage door springs are rated for a life expectancy of 30,000, providing you with a durable solution for years to come. We back our quality springs with a 15-year warranty, ensuring your peace of mind.
