Springs for Lithonia doors.

In townhome rows, a single-car door may open and close many times a day, and every trip uses up part of its spring life. Many standard springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles. Older houses may still have original springs, and spring wear can be a reason a Lithonia door stops working.

01 / HIGH USE

Springs for Busy Townhome Doors

A one-car townhome door can be cycled far more than a house door. We replace the springs as a pair, balance the door and check the opener is not carrying the load.

  • Springs replaced in pairs
  • Balance and opener load check
  • 3-year written warranty on torsion

  • Cable and drum check
  • 5-year written warranty on extension

03 / BALANCE

Cables, Drums and Balance

New springs depend on sound cables and drums to transmit lifting force. We check both, balance the door once the springs are in and test the safety reverse.

  • Door balanced after repair
  • Safety reverse tested

Broken Spring or Door Won't Rise

A torsion coil gap is a suspected broken spring. A bang or a stuck-down door can mean a broken spring or another lift-system problem. Don't run the opener or lift the door, and keep children and pets clear.

  • Loud bang from the garage
  • Gap in the torsion spring coil
  • Door slams down or stays down
  • Opener hums but nothing lifts
Look closer

Door Is Noisy or Slow

A door that groans, squeals or shakes may be wearing out its springs. Don't adjust them yourself. A technician can check for damage, corrosion and balance.

  • Door groans or shakes
  • Squeal while moving
  • Opener sounds strained
  • Door slow to rise

Spring FAQs

Lithonia spring questions.

Cycles, original springs, pairs and balance.

Ask about your springs(678) 271-8918
A spring is sized to the weight and height of the door. A heavier insulated or wood door needs a different spring than a light steel one. A spring that is too weak leaves the door heavy, and one that is too strong makes it rise on its own.
They can. A door used by one household several times a day racks up cycles quickly, and many standard springs are rated for about 10,000. Wear also depends on the spring's size and how well the door is balanced.
It happens, though it's hard to know without looking. If the springs are still original, they have done decades of work and may be near the end. A technician can inspect them and identify visible damage, corrosion and balance problems. Remaining life cannot be predicted reliably.
A door that slams down can mean weak or broken springs, or another lift-system problem. Stop using the opener, do not test the door manually, and keep everyone clear. Then call for a check.
It can. Bent panels or worn hinges can make the door bind, which strains the whole lift system. We look at the panels and hinges along with the springs, and tell you plainly what we find.
For Lithonia garage door spring repair, we balance the door so it stays put when lifted partway, then test the safety reverse. We check the cables and drums too. The door should move smoothly and reverse when it meets an obstruction.
