Garage door spring replacement in Staines: common questions

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.

Which options are available in Staines?

  • 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.
  • Single or pairReplace one or both springs.

This is a chargeable visit, priced up front. If parts are needed, you get the price before any further work is done.

What should you do until the engineer arrives in Staines?

Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.
