Garage door spring replacement in Salford: common questions
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.
Does the spring need to match the door?
Yes. The spring is sized to the door weight, the drum or pulley and the track layout, so wire size, length and diameter matter. We identify the right spring before fitting.
Which options are available in Salford?
- Single or pairReplace one or both springs.
- Correct sizingMatched to door weight.
- Torsion or tensionBoth spring systems covered.
- Rebalance and cable checkDoor set to stay part-open; cables checked at the same time.
