That loud bang from your garage is almost always a broken spring. Garage door springs are under enormous tension and do the heavy lifting every time your door goes up or down. When one breaks, the door becomes far too heavy for the opener to lift and can be dangerous to operate by hand. If you have a broken garage door spring anywhere in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area, David’s Urgent Garage Door provides fast, same-day repairs.
Signs Your Garage Door Spring Is Broken
Most homeowners know something is wrong the moment it happens. You might hear a sharp bang like a firecracker, find your door will not open, or notice it opens a few inches and stops. Sometimes you will see a visible gap in the coiled spring above the door, or the door slams down hard instead of lowering smoothly. If you spot any of these, stop using the door. Running the opener against a broken spring can damage the motor and the door itself.
Why You Should Never Replace a Spring Yourself
Garage door springs hold hundreds of pounds of stored energy. When they let go unexpectedly, they can cause serious injury. This is one repair that is genuinely worth leaving to a professional with the right tools and experience.
