Spring repair

Builder springs, worn and noisy.

About half of Riverdale's homes were built in the 1990s and 2000s, so original springs may be old enough to squeal, stretch or break. We explain what is worn in plain terms, replace springs in pairs on two-spring doors and balance the door before we leave.

01 / TORSION

Torsion Spring Replacement

Builder-grade springs above the door wear out. We replace both, match them to the door and balance it, so the opener isn't doing the lifting.

  • Pair replaced together
  • Matched to door weight
  • Balance tested

02 / NOISE

Squealing and Banging Springs

A squeal or a pop can mean a spring is dry or worn. We find the cause and fix the part that needs it.

  • Spring and bearings checked
  • Hinges and rollers checked
  • Lubricated where needed

03 / HEAVIER DOORS

Insulated and Double Doors

Insulated and wood doors weigh more, and double doors can have spring systems of their own. We size each spring to the door it lifts and balance it afterward.

  • Spring sized to door weight
  • Each door side checked
  • Balance tested

Warning signs

What a failing spring sounds and looks like.

Stop now

Loud Bang, Door Stuck

A bang followed by a door that won't rise suggests a broken spring. Don't run the opener or lift the door, and keep children and pets clear.

  • Bang from the garage
  • Gap in the torsion spring coil
  • Door stuck down
  • Opener hums
Stop using it

Squeals, Sags or Jerks

Squealing or jerky lifting can mean a spring is wearing out. If the door sags at one side, stop using it: don't run the opener, don't lift or force it, keep everyone clear and call.

  • Squeal on every trip
  • Door crooked when lifting
  • Rust on the coils
  • Noise when closing

Often it's a dry spring, bearing or hinge, but a squeal can also come from a spring that is wearing. Follow the door maker's lubrication guide for hinges and roller bearings, skip nylon wheels and tracks, and don't touch the spring itself. If the squeal remains, book a check and we'll find the source.
Usually, yes. Springs are sized to the weight of the door, so a wide or insulated door needs a stronger setup than a light single door. We inspect the door you have, size the springs to its weight and balance it.
Many standard springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles, and one open-and-close is one cycle. How soon a spring reaches that depends on how often the door runs. We can tell you how worn yours look.
Stop using the door; don't run the opener, lift or force it. Keep everyone clear and arrange an inspection. The new spring may be the wrong size for the door, or the door may not have been rebalanced. A well-matched spring lets a door stay put halfway. Riverdale garage door spring repair from us ends with a balance check and a safety reverse test.
No. On a two-spring door, replace both. They have had similar use, so the other spring may also be worn. A single new spring beside an old one can leave the door unbalanced.
Tell us what you heard or saw, whether the door is open or closed, and whether it's one door or two. Don't lift the door or run the opener. We'll give you safety advice and book a visit, with the price in writing.
