Spring Replacement Process Lynbrook

Here's Exactly What We Do

We start by disconnecting your opener and checking which type of springs you have – torsion or extension. Most Lynbrook homes built in the 1940s and 50s have systems that need specific attention.

Next, we carefully remove the broken springs and measure everything to ensure perfect balance. We install new high-cycle springs that match your door’s weight exactly. Wrong springs damage your opener and create safety hazards.

Finally, we test the door balance and perform a complete safety inspection. Your door should lift easily by hand and stay open at any height. We adjust everything until it works perfectly, then reconnect your opener and test the full system.

How do I know if my garage door spring is broken?

You’ll usually hear a loud bang when a spring breaks – it sounds like something heavy fell in your garage. After that, your door either won’t open at all or only lifts a few inches before stopping. If you look at torsion springs above your door, you might see a visible gap where the spring separated. Extension springs along the sides might hang loose or appear stretched out. Try lifting your door manually with the opener disconnected. A working door should lift easily and stay open. If it feels extremely heavy or won’t stay up, your springs need replacement.

Can I replace garage door springs myself?

We strongly recommend against DIY spring replacement. These springs store tremendous energy – enough to lift a 200-pound door hundreds of times. When they fail, that energy releases instantly and can cause serious injury. Professional technicians have the right tools and training to handle spring tension safely. We see injuries every year from homeowners who tried to save money on spring replacement. The cost difference between professional installation and emergency room visits makes professional service the smart choice. Plus, improper installation can damage your door and opener, creating even bigger expenses.

How long do garage door springs typically last?

Standard springs last about 10,000 cycles, which equals 7-12 years for most families. If you use your garage door twice daily, that’s roughly 1,500 cycles per year. We install high-cycle springs rated for 25,000-50,000 cycles. These last significantly longer and often come with better warranties than basic springs. Springs in Lynbrook’s humid climate may wear faster due to rust and corrosion. Regular lubrication and maintenance can extend spring life, but eventually all springs need replacement as the metal fatigues from constant use.

Why do both springs need replacement when only one breaks?

Springs installed at the same time experience identical wear patterns. When one breaks, the other is usually close to failure. Replacing just one spring creates an imbalanced door that puts extra stress on the new spring. An unbalanced door can bind in the tracks, damage your opener motor, or cause the door to operate crooked. The remaining old spring will likely fail within weeks or months, requiring another service call. Replacing both springs together ensures proper balance, prevents additional damage, and saves you money in the long run. Most manufacturers recommend replacing springs in pairs for safety and performance reasons.

How much does garage spring repair cost in Lynbrook?

Garage spring repair in Lynbrook typically costs between $150-350 for standard springs, depending on your door size and spring type. Torsion springs generally cost more than extension springs due to their complexity. We provide upfront pricing before starting work, so you know exactly what to expect. Our high-cycle springs cost slightly more initially but last 2-3 times longer than standard springs, making them more economical over time. First-time customers receive a 10% discount on their repair. We also offer free safety inspections with every spring replacement to identify potential problems before they become expensive emergencies.

We stock the most common spring sizes on our service trucks, allowing us to complete most repairs during the first visit.
