Residential Garage Door Spring Replacement – GTA Doors & Garage Doors
The garage door springs are essential components that counterbalance the weight of your residential garage door, allowing it to open and close smoothly. However, these springs are under constant tension and can wear out over time, leading to potential safety hazards and operational issues.
Signs Your Garage Door Springs Need Replacement If you notice any of the following signs, it’s time to replace your residential garage door springs:
- Difficulty opening or closing the door
- Unusual noises or grinding sounds when operating the door
- Visible gaps or separation in the springs
- The door becomes unbalanced or doesn’t open/close evenly
Safety Comes First Attempting to replace garage door springs on your own can be extremely dangerous. These components are under high tension and require specialized knowledge and equipment to handle safely. At GTA Doors & Garage Doors, we strongly recommend hiring professional technicians for residential garage door spring replacements to ensure your safety and proper installation.
Types of Garage Door Springs There are two main types of springs used in residential garage doors: torsion springs and extension springs. Our experienced technicians can assess your specific garage door configuration and recommend the most suitable spring type for your replacement.
Torsion Springs: These are mounted above the garage door and wind or unwind as the door moves, counterbalancing its weight. Torsion springs are often preferred for their strength and durability.
Extension Springs: These are mounted on either side of the garage door and stretch or contract as the door opens and closes. Extension springs are commonly used in older garage door systems or in situations where there is limited space above the door.
