Broken garage door spring? We can help.

Garage door springs play a vital role in lifting and balancing your garage door. When a spring becomes weak or breaks, the door can suddenly become very heavy or difficult to open.

Common signs include the motor lifting the door only part of the way, difficulty opening or closing the door, an uneven door or a visibly broken spring.

Rodney Garage Door Services supplies and replaces garage door springs for a wide range of sectional and tilt garage doors. We can assess the door, identify the correct spring and make sure the door is properly balanced after the replacement.

We can often quote from a photo or over the phone, making it easy to get started.

Maintenance

Why spring replacement should be done professionally

Garage door springs can be under significant tension. The correct spring must be selected and installed properly, and the door needs to be balanced after the work.

Using the wrong spring or attempting to adjust a tensioned spring without the right equipment can damage the door or cause serious injury.

Safety warning: Do not attempt to remove, adjust or replace a tensioned garage door spring yourself. Contact a qualified garage door technician.

Spring replacement can protect your motor

A garage door opener is designed to operate a correctly balanced door. When a spring breaks, the door becomes much heavier and the opener may struggle to lift it.

Continuing to operate a door with a broken spring can place unnecessary load on the motor and other components. If your spring has failed, it is usually best to have the complete system checked before continuing to use the opener.

Repair the cause, not just the symptom

Springs eventually wear out, but other parts of the garage door can also contribute to premature spring or motor problems. During a repair we can identify obvious wear in cables, rollers, hinges, tracks and brackets.

If the motor has also developed a fault, see our Garage Door Motors & Remotes page for more information.
