Garage door spring replacement in Battersea: common questions

Why is spring work not DIY?

Springs store a lot of energy. Winding a torsion spring needs proper winding bars, and releasing tension carelessly can cause serious injury or let the door fall. Please do not attempt it.

Should both springs be replaced?

Where a door has two springs, they have done the same number of cycles, so when one breaks the other is often close behind. Replacing both together, and checking the cables at the same time, is usually better value than a second visit.

What can you choose for your Battersea garage?

  • Torsion or tensionBoth spring systems covered.
  • Single or pairReplace one or both springs.
  • Rebalance and cable checkDoor set to stay part-open; cables checked at the same time.
  • Correct sizingMatched to door weight.
