Garage door spring replacement in Walton-on-Thames: 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 Walton-on-Thames?

  • 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.
