Identifying Signs of a Broken Garage Door Spring
Recognizing the signs of a broken garage door spring is vital for maintaining both safety and functionality.
At Coastline Overhead Door, we’ve seen countless cases where homeowners didn’t identify spring issues early enough, leading to more severe problems and safety risks. Watch for these clear indicators that you need broken spring replacement: Your garage door falls faster than usual when closing, makes loud banging noises during operation, or appears crooked when moving. You might also notice gaps between spring coils or visible breaks in the spring system. If your door feels essentially heavier when lifting manually or won’t stay open, these are pivotal warning signs.
We emphasize strict safety precautions when dealing with garage door springs. Never attempt DIY repairs, as springs store massive amounts of energy and can cause serious injury. Instead, call our experienced technicians who understand the complexities of spring systems. Through regular preventive maintenance, we can often catch spring wear before it leads to complete failure. With over 20 years of expertise in the Lowcountry, we’re equipped to handle all spring-related issues while ensuring your family’s safety remains the top priority.

Quick and Safe Spring Replacement Services
Servicing broken garage door springs demands both technical expertise and unwavering safety protocols.
At Coastline Overhead Door, our professional technicians have mastered the intricate process of replacing both torsion springs and extension springs with precision and care. We’ve developed efficient procedures that verify your door’s functionality is restored quickly without compromising safety standards. We’ll begin by securing your garage door and conducting a thorough assessment of the spring system. Our technicians carry a wide selection of high-quality springs in their service vehicles, allowing us to match your door’s specifications perfectly.
For torsion springs, we’ll carefully release the tension, remove the damaged components, and install new springs with precise torque settings. When dealing with extension springs, we’ll guarantee the proper installation of safety cables alongside the new springs. With over two decades of experience in the Lowcountry, we comprehend the importance of getting your garage door back in operation swiftly. Our replacement service includes a rigorous testing phase, where we’ll verify the proper balance, tension, and overall door operation before we consider the job complete.
Types of Garage Door Springs and Their Lifespans
Garage door springs come in two primary types: torsion springs mounted above the door and extension springs running alongside the tracks. Based on our 20 years of experience, we’ve found that torsion springs typically last between 15,000 and 20,000 cycles, while extension springs usually achieve 10,000 to 15,000 cycles. A cycle represents one complete opening and closing of your garage door.
We’ve observed that spring lifespan varies considerably depending on usage patterns, maintenance, and environmental conditions unique to the Lowcountry. Daily use can mean replacement needs arising within 5-7 years, while less frequent use can extend life to 10+ years. Proper garage door balance is indispensable for maximizing spring longevity—an unbalanced door puts excessive stress on springs, reducing their lifespan.
To guarantee reliable service, we recommend professional inspections twice yearly. During these checks, we assess spring tension, look for wear signs, and make necessary adjustments. Regular maintenance helps prevent unexpected failures and safeguards your door’s safe operation. When replacement becomes necessary, our team handles both torsion and extension spring installations with precision and care.

Preventive Measures to Extend Spring Life
Regular maintenance stands at the forefront of extending your garage door spring’s lifespan.
At Coastline Overhead Door, we recommend several proven strategies to help you avoid emergency repairs and maximize your springs’ durability. First, we emphasize the importance of keeping your springs clean and free from debris. As Lowcountry experts, we’ve seen how our region’s humidity and salt air can accelerate wear. That’s why we suggest wiping down your springs with a clean, dry cloth every three months to prevent corrosion.
We also stress the necessity of proper lubrication. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to your springs twice yearly, ensuring even coverage while avoiding over-application. This simple step considerably reduces friction and wear during operation. Through our garage door repair experience, we’ve found that weight distribution plays a pivotal role in spring longevity.
We recommend checking that your door remains properly balanced and aligned. If you notice any unusual noises or movements, don’t wait—contact us immediately. Early intervention prevents catastrophic failures and extends spring life immensely. Remember to schedule professional inspections annually to catch potential issues before they become serious problems.
