Garage Door Spring Repair in College Park, GA.
Garages built in the 1960s and 1970s may have extension springs beside the tracks. We handle College Park garage door spring repair for those and for torsion systems, check safety cables and put the price in writing before any work.
Older doors, older spring systems.
College Park's median home was built in 1972, so many garage doors here may still use extension springs, the long springs running along the side tracks. If one breaks without a safety cable, it can fly across the garage. We replace extension springs in pairs, add missing cables and size each spring to the door's weight.
Extension Spring Replacement
The long springs beside the side tracks wear out on older doors. We replace both together, check the cables and pulleys, and balance the door before we go.
- Springs replaced in pairs
- Pulleys and cables checked
- Balance tested
Safety Cable Fitting
A safety cable runs through each extension spring so a break can't whip across the garage. Many older doors have none, and we can fit them.
- Cable through each spring
- Brackets and pulleys checked
- Fitted with the repair
Balance and Reverse Test
After new springs go in, we balance the door so it holds partway up, then test the safety reverse. Extension springs are sized to the door's actual weight.
- Springs sized to door weight
- Balance checked partway up
- Safety reverse tested
Signs an old spring is near the end.
A Spring Has Let Go
If you hear a bang and see a stretched or separated spring, the door is no longer balanced. Keep everyone clear and don't run the opener or lift the door.
- Loud bang
- Spring hanging or separated
- Cable loose at the pulley
- Door won't rise
Rust or Stretched Springs
Old extension springs can rust, stretch or lose tension without breaking yet. If the door sags on one side, drops or slams down, stop using it: don't run the opener, don't lift or force it, keep everyone clear and call.
- Rust on the coils
- Coils spaced unevenly
- One side lifting faster
- Door sagging when stopped
From first call to balanced door.
