Springs for Lilburn garages.

Lilburn grew mostly between 1970 and 1999. If the springs are still original, have their condition checked. Every open and close adds a cycle, and many standard springs are rated for about 10,000. A garage under a split-level may be used several times a day, which uses those cycles faster than owners expect.

01 / TORSION

Torsion Spring Replacement

Torsion springs on a bar above the door lift the door's weight. We replace both springs together, sized to the door, and balance it so it stays put when raised halfway.

  • Springs sized to the door
  • Replaced as a pair
  • 3-year written warranty

02 / EXTENSION

Extension Springs and Safety Cables

Many 1970s and 1980s doors use extension springs along the tracks. We replace them as a pair and run a safety cable through each one to contain a break.

  • Safety cable through each spring
  • Pulleys and cables checked
  • 5-year written warranty

03 / TESTING

Balance and Reverse Check

After any spring job we balance the door and test the auto-reverse: with the door open, we lay a 2x4 flat on the floor under its middle and close it with the opener. The door must reverse on contact.

  • Balance set after the repair
  • 2x4 reverse test
  • Sensor alignment check

Loud Bang and a Door That Won't Rise

A bang and a door that stays down often mean a spring has broken. Don't run the opener or lift the door, and keep people and pets clear. Uneven lift, a heavy feel or a slam also mean stop.

  • Loud bang from the garage
  • Gap in the torsion spring coil
  • Door too heavy to lift
  • Cable loose or hanging

Door Slow or Noisy

If the door is slower to rise than it used to be, the opener works harder or you hear rubbing or squeaking, the springs may be losing strength. Have them checked before one breaks.

  • Door slow to rise
  • Opener working harder
  • Rubbing or squeaking while moving
  • Rust on the coils

Spring FAQs

Lilburn spring questions.

Straight answers on springs, cables and safe testing.

It depends on use. Many standard springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles, and each open and close is one. A garage opened four times a day would reach that count in roughly seven years. Lilburn garage door spring repair for a busy door may be needed around that point.
Only if the door is fully closed, undamaged and seated in its tracks, with no visible gap in a torsion spring or loose cable. Then release the opener as its manual describes and gently lift by hand. A balanced door stays about waist high. Stop if it feels heavy or binds, and call us.
With the door open, lay a 2x4 flat on the floor under the middle of the door, then close it with the opener. The door should reverse when it touches the board. If it doesn't, stop using the opener and book service. We run it after every spring repair.
They often seem to. Cold can make metal more brittle, and a worn spring gets one more stretch every time the door moves. Failure timing varies, and age and cycle count are the underlying causes.
No. A heavy door may mean the springs are tired, and extra force hides the problem and can stop the door reversing properly. Stop using the door; don't run the opener, lift or force it. Keep everyone clear and call.
Cables and springs work as a team. A frayed cable can slip or snap and drop one side of the door, so we look at it whenever springs are changed. If it's worn, we explain why and put the price in writing.
