The National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (NEISS) reports more than 7,500 people each year are pinched by their garage doors, often due to spring replacement. It's best to leave this job to the professionals!
Spring Repair & Replacement
Maintaining your garage door’s performance starts with selecting high-quality springs suited to your door’s weight and size. Using the right springs reduces wear on the opener, extends its lifespan, and improves the door's overall operation.
At Precision Garage Door Service of Toledo, we service both torsion and extension springs, though torsion springs are typically preferred for their durability and smooth functionality. Torsion springs are installed above the door and use a controlled twisting motion to lift the door evenly, making them an ideal choice for both residential and commercial applications. Extension springs, which stretch along the sides of the door, are less commonly used in this area but can be converted to the more dependable torsion system. Upgrading to torsion springs can provide improved safety and longer-lasting performance for your door.
To ensure balanced performance, we recommend replacing both springs at the same time, even if only one has broken, as springs generally wear out together. Replacing both simultaneously can save you from the cost and hassle of a second service call down the line.
In addition to spring replacement, each visit includes a comprehensive 25-point safety inspection. This inspection checks for any other potential issues, allowing you to address them proactively. With fully stocked trucks, our technicians are prepared to handle any additional repairs on-site, ensuring your garage door is safe and dependable after each visit.
