Snapped torsion springs are probably the most common broken part that we encounter on a garage door repair New Britain CT call.Read more
A torsion spring can last for thousands of cycles before it decides to break. However, in New Britain’s cold weather, springs are put through a lot of stress and when they do break, the door loses its counterbalance, leaving the opener a load it was never designed to lift. Leave the door where it is and call a technician. We have the most common sizes of replacement torsion springs in stock on our service trucks. After removing the old broken torsion spring(s) we install the new ones. We also check the cables for wear and make sure the drum is aligned properly before we leave your premises. If a cable needs to be replaced and the spring is in good shape, we will let you know.
Once a spring is broken, do not run the opener. Leave the door exactly where it is and call a technician immediately.
Most garage door repair New Britain CT opener calls are dead remotes, stripped drive gears, photo eyes knocked out of place by bikes or trash cans, and logic boards that stop talking to the wall button. Spring and cable work belongs to a trained technician, never a homeowner.Read more
The same goes for the drive gear and wiring inside the opener. For property managers, we can fit smart openers and keypads across a building's units.
Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Pull it only when the door is fully closed.
Fraying cables can break often at the cable drum end as this is the area where the cable is subjected to the greatest flex.Read more
A door forced open against ice can bend a track, and a bent track stops the rollers from running freely. Never pull the red release cord while the door is open or jammed. Our technicians straighten or replace damaged track sections and re-thread cables as needed, then test the complete travel of the door before leaving.
Some minor dents or cracks to panels may be cosmetic, but a buckled panel can cause a door to mis-align which in turn can affect the seal and operation of the door.Read more
We will establish whether the rest of the door is in good condition and if the damaged panel is currently in production before advising on a replacement. A door that comes off track can weigh 200 pounds or more, and it can drop without warning. Keep people and vehicles clear until a technician secures it. The bottom of the door has a seal which can split in freeze/thaw cycles. This allows cold air and moisture to enter under the door. As a garage door company New Britain homeowners call for seal work, we carry common widths on the truck and cut them to size on site.
⚠️ A door that comes off track can weigh 200+ pounds and can drop without warning. Keep people and vehicles clear.

Many garage door repair New Britain CT calls come from the older single-car garages of the city's two-family homes and triple-deckers, much of that stock dating back to the 1920s and 1930s.
