Broken torsion or extension spring? Our certified technicians handle all types of garage door springs repair safely, with same-day service and transparent spring repair cost in Vancouver.
There are two main types of garage door springs. Our technicians repair both, using heavy-duty replacement springs rated for 25,000+ cycles.
Torsion springs are mounted horizontally above the garage door opening. They wind and unwind to counterbalance the door's weight. Most modern homes use torsion springs. Torsion spring repair is our most requested service — these are under enormous tension and must only be handled by a professional.
Extension springs run along the horizontal tracks on either side of the door. They stretch and contract as the door moves. Common in older Vancouver homes. When one extension spring breaks, we recommend replacing both sides to maintain balanced operation and prevent the other spring from snapping soon after.
Don't ignore these warning signs. A worn or broken spring can cause the door to fall, damage your vehicle, or injure someone. Call us right away if you notice any of these.
If your door won't move despite the opener running, a broken spring is the most likely cause. The opener cannot lift the full door weight without the spring's counterbalance — do not force it.
A broken garage door spring often snaps with a loud bang — sometimes mistaken for a gunshot. If you heard a loud noise and your door stopped working, call our garage door spring repair service immediately.
A worn spring no longer properly counterbalances the door. If the door closes too fast or feels unusually heavy when you lift it manually, your springs need attention before they fully break.
Look above the door — if you can see a visible separation or gap in the torsion spring coil, the spring has broken. This is a clear sign you need same-day garage door spring repair.
If one side of the door rises higher than the other, one extension spring may have broken. This uneven tension can also damage the cables and tracks if not addressed promptly.
