Understanding Garage Door Springs

Garage door springs represent the heart of your door’s lifting mechanism. These powerful components store and release energy, making heavy doors manageable for both manual and automatic operation. Most modern doors use either torsion springs mounted above the door or extension springs that run alongside the horizontal tracks. Each system requires specific expertise to repair safely and effectively.

The average spring lasts between 7-10 years, depending on usage patterns and environmental conditions. Seattle’s climate, with its frequent moisture and temperature variations, can impact spring longevity. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues before catastrophic failure occurs, but springs eventually reach their natural breaking point through normal wear.

Signs of Failing Springs

Catching spring problems early saves you from costly repairs and dangerous situations. Watch for these warning signs that indicate your garage door springs need professional attention:

• Loud banging or crashing sounds during operation
• Door falls too quickly or slams when closing
• Gaps between spring coils (sign of stretching)
• Uneven or crooked door movement
• Door feels excessively heavy to lift manually
• Automatic opener strains or struggles more than usual
