Garage Door Torsion Springs
Is Your Garage Door Hard To Open Or Close?
The torsion spring has two coils that when twisted, produce energy that lifts and lowers your garage door. When installing new torsion springs, it’s important that you match the proper size for your garage door. If you have an older-style garage door with exposed torsion springs, it may be possible to purchase a replacement set or even just one coil if one breaks or stretches out over time. However newer style doors use hidden torsion springs which reduces maintenance by hiding them away inside the header box where they cannot be seen or easily accessed.
If your garage door still works but it is hard to open or close, then chances are that your torsion springs need replacing. The most common reason for this is that they have lost their elasticity over time due to constant use and exposure to different weather conditions.

What to Expect During a Torsion Spring Repair Service

Final Inspection
Our service concludes with a final inspection to verify that the repair or replacement meets our strict quality standards. We check that the torsion springs are properly installed and adjusted, ensuring that your garage door is balanced and operates without issue.
Tips for Maintaining Your Torsion Springs
Your garage door torsion springs are under immense tension, working hard every time you open and close your door. While they are built for durability, a little regular maintenance can go a long way in extending their lifespan, ensuring smooth operation, and preventing unexpected and potentially dangerous failures.
Here are a few simple tips for maintaining your torsion springs:
Lubricate the Springs Regularly
Use a silicone-based lubricant or a specially formulated garage door lubricant. Avoid using products like WD-40, which are penetrants and can strip away existing grease rather than providing lasting lubrication.
Conduct Visual Inspections
Does the door open and close smoothly? Or does it appear to be struggling, moving unevenly, or feeling much heavier than it used to? A change in the door's operation can be a strong indicator that the tension in the springs is off or that one or more springs are weakening.
Listen for Unusual Noises
Pay attention to the sounds your garage door makes when operating. Squeaking, grinding, or loud creaking noises coming from the spring area can be a sign that lubrication is needed or that a more significant issue is developing within the spring system.
Observe the Door's Movement
Does the door open and close smoothly? Or does it appear to be struggling, moving unevenly, or feeling much heavier than it used to? A change in the door's operation can be a strong indicator that the tension in the springs is off or that one or more springs are weakening.
When to Call a Professional
It is crucial to understand that while basic lubrication and visual inspection are safe for homeowners, any adjustments, repairs, or replacement of torsion springs should only be performed by a trained and experienced garage door professional. These springs are under extremely high tension, and improper handling can result in serious injury or damage to property.
If you notice any signs of damage, hear unusual noises, or if your door is not operating correctly, contact a qualified garage door service immediately. Simple, regular maintenance can help keep things running smoothly, but leave the complex and dangerous work to Mojo Garage Door Service experts.
