What Is a Garage Door Torsion Spring?
This spring might be small, but it plays a huge role if you want to keep your garage doors opening and closing smoothly. Mounted above the door, this tightly wound steel component counterbalances the heavy weight of the door so it lifts easily, no matter if it’s manually or with a garage door opener.
Unlike older-style extension springs that stretch out to do the job, garage door torsion springs use rotational force. When the door opens, the spring unwinds, releasing stored energy that lets the heavy door be lifted with not much effort.
Designed to last through tens of thousands of cycles, these springs are under constant tension and built to handle serious stress. But like any mechanical part, they don’t last forever.

Signs Your Torsion Spring Needs Replacing
Torsion springs usually give signs before they fail completely, if you know what to look for. If your garage door starts lifting unevenly, makes loud noises, or drops suddenly, it could be a sign your spring is worn out or broken. Corrosion, not lubricating it right, and overuse all contribute to early failure.
In many cases, if one spring breaks, the other isn’t far behind. Replacing both at once is often the best way to keep everything balanced and working as it should. But we DO NOT recommend a DIY replacement, as the springs are under high tension and puts your safety at risk.
At Berintek Garage Doors, we’ve helped countless Ottawa homeowners replace torsion springs safely and efficiently. We know how critical these parts are to your daily life and how quickly things can go sideways when they break. If you need professional garage door torsion spring replacement, reach out to us today!
