GARAGE DOOR SPRING REPAIR

Broken torsion spring won’t let the garage door open again and has to be replaced as soon as possible. Springs act as counterbalance for doors weight. When spring brakes door becomes out of balance and too heavy for garage door opener to lift. With broken spring garage door opener will lift the door few inches up and then reverse.

On double garage doors over 14 ft wide most of the time two or more springs are used. When one of the springs breaks, it is highly recommended to replace both at the same time. All springs are rated for certain number of cycles. When one brakes, you should expect the other one brake soon. Since difference in price to replace one or two garage door springs is not significant, to avoid additional service fee, its better to replace both springs. On average residential garage door usage, new springs should last 5-10 years.

WARNING. Do not try to operate garage door opener when suspect to broken spring. This can burn the motor or grind the gears and lead to costly repairs.

We service 5 types of garage door springs in Calgary:

  • Torsion springs.

    Most common garage door system used in Calgary. Broken spring can be visually identified. It is located right over the door when door is in closed position and mounted on the shaft. Each spring is color coded or marked with identifying numbers. Each color code or specific spring size corresponds to certain weight of the door, cable drum size, track radius and door lift type.

  • Extension springs.

    This type of springs is less popular, but still quite often used in older garage door systems. Extension springs located right over the horizontal portion of the track. Broken spring can be visually identified. Extension springs are color coded and each color corresponds to specific door weight. It is extremely important to use correct springs for your garage door.

  • Wayne Dalton torquemaster springs.

    Wane Dalton springs are hidden inside the tube and broken spring can not be visually identified. Experienced garage door technician can easily identify broken spring by doing few tests. This system, when doesn’t have parts available or too expensive to service, can be converted to traditional torsion spring system.

  • EZ set Clopay, Ideal and Holmes torsion springs.

    EZ-Set springs are commonly used on Clopay garage doors. Broken spring can be visually identified. This system is considered safe for DIY repair, since spring is winded through the winder and does not require winding bars. These springs have to be replaced only with EZ-Set springs, standard springs won’t work on this system. EZ-set springs are gapped between the coils and have spacer sleeve inside the coil.

  • Holmes One-Piece or Single Panel Door Spring.

    This type of spring is commonly used on Holmes E900 one piece garage doors. Broken spring can be visually identified. These springs are different than the ones used on sectional garage doors and can be identified by unique end types - open loop, closed loop and clips.

Garage door cable come loose of the pulley, broken cable, torn cable, rusted garage door cable. These are the most common complain we hear from our clients in Calgary.

Lets say cable off the pulley 9 out of 10 times is a result of improperly balanced garage door or broken garage door spring. The only time cable problems are not effected by other malfunctions is when cable gets rusted. With constant temperature changes and and present moisture cable ends get rusted fairly quick and brake at one point.
