Torsion and extension springs store a lot of force and have to be wound with proper tools, winding bars among them. If the wrong wire gauge, wrong wind count, or wrong anchor point is used, the spring can fly across the garage in an instant. That work belongs to experienced technicians, not a one-time attempt from a ladder.
Our tech works through the likely causes in order: a broken spring, a snapped cable, a blocked or misaligned photo eye, a stripped drive gear, or a dead remote control.

Yes, there is a pattern. Cold steel is less forgiving than hot steel. Thus an older spring that is near the end of its life is more likely to fail on a cold day than on a mild day. Garage door repair Sandy UT calls spike with the first hard freeze of the year, especially in the higher east-side ZIP codes. Original spring hardware from the 1980s and 1990s would benefit from an inspection prior to winter.
Yes, often. We can first have our technician check if the door model is currently in production for the required panel(s). We provide a written quote prior to any work being carried out. Provided the rest of the door is sound then replacing the required single panel(s) is generally the best solution as opposed to a full door replacement. However should the required panel have been discontinued or there is additional damage to other parts surrounding the required panel then a full door replacement would be the more honest solution and we would advise you of this.
