Broken spring service
Garage Door Spring Repair and Replacement in Richardson
A broken or weakened garage-door spring can make the door feel extremely heavy, prevent the opener from lifting it or leave visible gaps in the spring assembly. Springs operate under substantial tension and should not be handled as a casual do-it-yourself repair.
No public phone number or office visit is required. Submit the details online.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is it safe to open a garage door with a broken spring?
The door can be unexpectedly heavy and difficult to control. Avoid forcing it open or continuing to run the opener.
What is the difference between torsion and extension springs?
Torsion springs typically mount above the door opening and rotate on a shaft. Extension springs stretch along the horizontal tracks on many systems.
Can just one spring be replaced?
That decision depends on the spring system, age, condition and matching requirements. Include a photo and description in the request form when possible.
