If your garage door has suddenly become a heavyweight champion, refusing to budge without a Herculean effort, you might be dealing with a broken spring. The springs play the role of lifting buddies for your garage door, making it light enough to lift with just one hand. When they break, it's like losing half the team – everything becomes heavier and harder.
(508) 594-3317Garage doors typically use one of two types of springs: torsion or extension. Torsion springs are mounted above the door opening and twist to provide lifting power. Extension springs run along the tracks on either side of the door and stretch when the door is moved. Both types do heavy lifting but in different ways.A broken spring can turn your garage into an impromptu storage unit faster than you can say "trapped." It's not just about inconvenience; a non-functional garage door poses security risks and could potentially harm if attempted to operate under this condition.
Catching signs early can save you from bigger headaches down the road. Look out for these telltale symptoms:
