Garage Door Service – Broken Spring Replacement and Repairs
If your garage door has started to make noises, shake, or simply not working the way it should, it might be time for a repair.
How do I know when my garage door needs service or repair?
Look for signs like unusual noises (grinding or scraping), excessive shaking or vibrating, misaligned tracks, frayed cables, dented panels, slow response times, or difficulty in fully opening or closing the door. Garage door malfunctions can happen because of faulty sensors, broken springs, damaged tracks, worn-out cables, and problems with the garage door opener. Manufacturers recommend annual service on garage doors and a monthly inspection on openers.
We specialize in broken spring replacements and repairs.
Specializing in garage door broken spring repairs and replacements means we have expertise in diagnosing, repairing, and replacing the springs that are crucial for the operation of garage doors. We’ll get the job done right, the first time.
These services are offered at our Yakima, Wenachee and Pasco locations.
- Here’s what you can expect from our expert garage door repair technicians – we understand spring types:
Torsion Springs: These are mounted above the garage door and use torque to lift the door.
Extension Springs: These are located on either side of the door and stretch to provide lifting force.
- We’ll Quickly Diagnose Issues:
We’ll start by looking for signs of broken springs, such as the door not opening, loud bangs, or visible gaps in the springs. If another repair is required, our tech will let you know.
- Safety Precautions:
Springs must be handled with care due to the high tension they are under, which can be dangerous if not managed properly. This is not a repair we recommend DIYing.
- Replacement Process:
We’ll safely remove the broken spring and install a new one, ensuring the correct size and type for the specific door.
- Balancing the Door:
We will ensure the door is properly balanced after the spring replacement to prevent uneven wear and tear on other components.
