Garage door spring replacement in Sandown: common questions
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.
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.
Which options are available in Sandown?

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