Don’t Risk Serious Injury — Leave It to the Pros
Garage door spring repair is one of the most hazardous home repairs. Every year, thousands of DIYers are injured attempting to fix their own torsion or extension springs. Here’s why it’s better — and safer — to call a pro.
Why Are Springs So Dangerous?
Garage door springs are wound tightly to counterbalance the weight of the door — sometimes over 200 pounds. Releasing or adjusting them without proper tools and training can result in:
- Sudden recoil and snapping
- Broken fingers or wrists
- Lacerations from spring whip
- Falls from ladders or step stools
- Damage to the door or opener
Signs Your Spring Is Broken
- Garage door won’t lift or slams shut
- You hear a loud “bang” in the garage
- One side of the door is higher than the other
- The opener struggles or won’t work
