Garage Door Spring Repairs
Are your garage door springs shot? Garage door spring repairs are one of the most common services we perform in the Bay Area. Garage door springs undergo a great deal of stress and have a limited lifespan, requiring immediate attention.
How Long Do Garage Door Springs Last?
The lifespan of garage door springs depends on how often you raise and lower your garage doors. Most garage door springs last about 10,000 cycles. Raising and lowering the door one time is one cycle.
| Daily Cycles | Garage Door Spring Lifespan |
| 2 | 14 years |
| 4 | 7 years |
| 6 | 4.5 years |
| 8 | 3.5 years |
| 10 | 3 years |
Signs Your Garage Door Springs Need Replacement
It’s common not to know the age of your garage door springs. In this case, you can look for operational issues indicating your garage door springs need replacement:
- The garage door won’t open evenly
- Your garage door won’t open all the way
- The garage door slides back down after you open it
Don’t Wait on Garage Door Spring Replacement
Worn springs pose a significant safety risk. When springs fail, the extremely heavy weight of your garage door could cause the door to sag and eventually come crashing down. Trying to open a garage door with a broken spring can also bend the top of the door itself – or damage your garage door opener.
Spring Replacement is Dangerous and Requires Professional Attention
Garage door springs operate under an enormous amount of tension, requiring experience and skill to replace safely. NEVER try to adjust, repair, or replace garage door springs yourself. This is not a DIY job and could result in serious injury. Ensure safe spring replacement with help from the trained technicians at Madden Door.
