The Impact Of Garage Door Springs
One important part of your garage door that’s often forgotten about, is the spring. Many people don’t realize how important these springs are if you want a door that actually works. They bear a lot of weight, and when they wear out or break, your garage door will not work anymore.
Your garage door springs are responsible for balancing the weight of the door, making it easy for the opener to lift and lower it. If you have a door without working springs, it’ll suddenly feel a lot heavier than normal, and can even come crashing down unexpectedly.
Regular spring maintenance can prevent these issues, saving you from having to deal with a broken spring at an inconvenient time.

If your door springs are working like they should, then your door won’t get stuck halfway up. A door that works smoothly keeps water, dirt, and debris from slipping through. If your springs are worn out, your garage door is going to struggle when moving, which can lead to leaks or damage. If you replace those old or broken springs, then everything should be fine.
Prevent Unwanted Noise and Damage
Broken or worn-out springs can cause the garage door to make loud, annoying noises when moving. This is not only loud but can also cause jerky movements that strain the opener or cables. By replacing those springs, you can stop those sounds and protect the rest of your garage door system.
Smoothe Door Movement
A good set of springs ensures your door operates smoothly without the sudden stops and starts. Over time, worn springs can cause the door to move unevenly or slowly, leading to wear on other parts of your system. When your springs are replaced, your garage door will move with consistent speed, making it less stressful on the whole system.
Protect Other Garage Door Parts
The springs of your garage door bear most of the door’s weight. When they’re in good shape, they make it so the motor and tracks aren’t strained. Worn springs force the opener to work harder, which can cause more wear on the entire system.
Maintain Curb Appeal
When your garage door springs start to fail, it can cause uneven lifting, making your door look crooked or uneven. This can be a big visual problem, as it affects the curb appeal of your home. Replacing your springs makes your garage door look aligned, keeping your home looking neat and attractive.
Help Keep the Garage Clean
Old springs that are no longer working properly may cause gaps in the door when it closes, which can let in dust, dirt, and other allergens. New springs help keep your garage door sealed tightly, making sure the elements and allergens stay out. This is especially important if you use your garage as a workspace or storage area for sensitive materials.

Is It Time For Garage Door Spring Replacements
If you’re using your garage door and it feels unusually heavy, that probably means you need some new springs. Broken or worn-out springs are one of the most common reasons for a malfunctioning door, and they can put unnecessary stress on everything else, leading to more problems.
Another sign that it’s time to replace your garage door springs is a door that won’t stay open. If you’re trying to open your garage door, but find that it doesn’t stay up or it can’t go all the way up, then you’ll need to get some new springs.

Got Questions?
We’ve Got Answers!
Can I replace the garage door spring myself?
We highly recommend leaving it to the professionals. Garage door springs are under immense tension, and attempting to replace them without the proper tools and experience can be dangerous. At Berintek, we have the expertise to handle the replacement safely and efficiently, ensuring that your door operates smoothly afterward.
How often should I replace my garage door spring?
Garage door springs typically last between 7,000 to 10,000 cycles, which is roughly 7-10 years for an average household. However, if your door is used more frequently, the springs may wear out sooner.
Can you lift a garage door with a broken spring?
It’s not advisable to attempt lifting your garage door with a broken spring. A broken spring will significantly reduce the door’s lifting power, and trying to force the door open can damage other components, such as the opener, cables, and tracks. If you have a broken spring, contact us at Berintek for a quick and safe replacement.
Will garage door work with one broken spring?
No, a garage door will not function properly with one broken spring. If one spring breaks, the entire system becomes imbalanced, making it difficult or impossible for the door to open and close correctly. Continuing to operate the door with a broken spring can lead to further damage, so it’s best to replace the spring as soon as possible.
What would cause a garage door spring to break?
Several factors can cause a garage door spring to break, including wear and tear from regular use, rust due to moisture exposure, or an improperly balanced door. Poor installation or faulty components can also contribute to early spring failure. It’s important to have your springs inspected regularly to ensure that they’re in good working condition.
Should you replace both garage door springs at the same time?
Yes, it’s generally recommended to replace both garage door springs at the same time, even if only one appears to be broken. If one spring has worn out, the other is likely to fail soon, as both springs are under equal strain. Replacing them together ensures that your door is properly balanced and that the springs will wear evenly over time.
