We have numerous types of springs for all openers to include torsion and extension types to replace should they break, like they do often at the worst times, like on a cold Columbus morning.

We can match most damaged panels and swap them out for you rather than replacing the entire door.
The springs on the door do most of the work of lifting it. So, when one fails, the door suddenly becomes very heavy. Most spring failures occur on the very coldest mornings of the year.Read more
Metal near the end of its rated life loses flexibility in such cold temperatures and breaks under the additional stress. Leave the door where it is and call a technician. We replace Torsion Springs (above door) and Extension Springs (side of tracks) on 2 spring doors. We will advise if both need replacing.
Once a spring is broken, do not run the opener. Leave the door exactly where it is and call a technician immediately.

We repair LiftMaster, Chamberlain, Genie, Craftsman and most other residential brands. We also offer Smart opener upgrades. We review all Safety Reversal Sensors for opener related requests for garage door repair Columbus OH. Many older openers do not meet current UL325 standards and we verify compliance on all opener related work. Spring and cable work belongs to a trained technician, never a homeowner. The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener.
Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Pull it only when the door is fully closed.
Cables come from the bottom bracket of the door up to the drum of the spring. A frayed cable is only one hard cycle from breaking.Read more
A broken cable means an unbalanced door that will fall to one side. Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. It’s not often you have to re-straighten, re-align or even replace the steel tracks for a garage door. As the primary structural component of the door, garage door steel tracks can bend from accidents (i.e. when a car collides with the track), from your home settling or shifting, or just from typical wear and tear as the years go by. For homes built in the Columbus, OH area in the 1960s and 1970s, many of the original steel tracks are even undersized. Garage door rollers are typically replaced with sealed steel bearing type rollers (as opposed to the typical stock nylon bearing type) on extremely heavy garage doors or those that get frequent use, such as a rental home or multi-family home with a property manager. These doors get used 8 to 10 times per day.
A door that comes off track can weigh 200 pounds or more, and it can drop without warning.Read more
Keep people and vehicles clear until a technician secures it. Panel damage is common after Columbus hail storms and after a car clips the bottom section backing out. We match the panel style and gauge before ordering, so the replacement sits flush and the insulation rating stays intact. Bottom seals and weatherstripping crack in the freeze-thaw cycles that hit Columbus hard between November and March, and a gap at the floor lets cold air and water into the garage fast.
⚠️ A door that comes off track can weigh 200+ pounds and can drop without warning. Keep people and vehicles clear.
