The GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS on your garage door can be dangerous when replacing. Always replace your garage door springs with the garage door open. Have a 6' ladder under the garage door to catch the garage door incase it falls down and cut a 2" x 4" piece of wood about 7' tall to place under the door to hold it in the open position.

If you feel that replacing your garage door springs may be to difficult for you to do please call a professional such as myself with over 35 years of experience replacing all types of garage door springs. Torsion springs, extension springs, and Holmes one piece door springs.

A garage door spring that breaks or shatters even though it might have safety cables can send sharp shrapnel flying in any direction of the garage. Anyone inside the garage if that happens to hit is at serious risk of injury or death.

Steel or wood roll up sectional garage doors pose little risk in the event of a broken spring or a shattering spring. These kinds of springs are installed over a shaft that helps roll the door up to the open position. The shaft also acts as a retainer so that a broken spring is not allowed to go ballistic. Even though in my 35 years in the garage door industry I have on rare occasions seen sharp shrapnel break off a torsion garage door spring.

One piece garage doors also known as the flip up style of garage door can be a different situation. If they have the old style pivot hardware. These springs are not often sold anymore and some wholesalers don't stock them. In some cases where our customers didn't want to replace the hardware or door we had to order the springs.

Old un-safe springs can be identified quite easily, because unlike the newer springs that have a core rod that is retained inside the coil of the spring. This is a built-in safety feature, because the core rod will retain any chunks of spring in the event of breakage. Look at new springs in your local hardware store. You can easily see the core retaining rod running the length of the spring.

Your best bet is to just replace the garage door springs with modern self-retaining ones every 8 to 12 years depending on how often you use your garage door. Remember you can always call a professional like us to replace your garage door springs and make the adjustments to your garage door and garage door opener to make it a lot safer.

Broken Garage Door Torsion Springs
GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS for a one piece garage door, or a sectional garage door, on average last 6 to 12 years. BROKEN GARAGE DOOR SPRINGS are caused by a verity of factors. When pouring the steel to make the wire for the springs all air bubbles may not escape causing the garage door spring wire to fault at a later date under pressure. When heat treating the garage door spring wire, the wire as it cools if there is any inconsistence in its cooling can cause a fault under pressure over time. When a garage door spring breaks, if older then 5 years of age all springs should be replaced. Why? Because it is cheaper and more cost effective to replace the other springs then to pay for a second service call within a short period of time of the next spring breaking.
