Garage Door Springs Repair

Garage door springs are tricky to repair, and the standard issue garage door / overhead door must be in the down position while the springs are being worked on. In most repair cases, we re-calculate the spring coil size and length for each specific garage door. If the springs are not properly calibrated, the motor will be forced to work overtime to hold the garage door. To make sure this doesn't happen, we use special instruments in order to adjust the springs to an average of about 200 inch pounds per turn. There are many other factors other than tightness to account for in overall spring weight, such as tube diameter and spring wire diameter. In general though, tightness is the most important factor.

The Repair Process

Our spring repair and install methods may vary, and our technicians are permitted to change the process in order to further benefit the customer. All variations conform to HOA standards.
