Garage door spring replacement – example of the door type

What does a spring replacement involve in Stoke-on-Trent?

How long do springs last?

Springs are rated in cycles, one open and one close. Several manufacturers rate their springs at about 25,000 cycles, while some standard springs are rated lower. In everyday use many springs need replacing after something like eight to twelve years, sooner on a door that opens many times a day.

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 Stoke-on-Trent garage?

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

What should you do until the engineer arrives in Stoke-on-Trent?
