We at Prime Craft Garage Doors can assist with garage door spring repair and replacement services in Monroe and surrounding Fairfield County, CT. Garage door springs support the garage door and work under a lot of tension, and as a result, they are an important and sometimes dangerous component of the garage door system. When garage door springs fail, the garage door will not function and can be a safety hazard. We can assist with garage door spring repair and replacement services to make sure that the garage door is functioning safely and effectively.
A Brief Overview of Garage Door Spring Types
Residential garage doors have one of two types of garage door spring systems. Torsion springs are mounted on a steel rod above the garage door and use torsional force to counterbalance the garage door weight. Extension springs are mounted on both sides of the garage door track and stretch to open the garage door. We at Prime Craft Garage Doors repair and replace all types of garage door springs and will make sure to use the correct type and size of garage door spring to match your garage door.
Warning Signs That Garage Door Springs Need Repair
Garage door springs have a limited number of open and close cycles, about 10000 on average, before they fail and require repair or replacement. Warning signs that garage door spring repair is necessary include a loud bang or snapping sound coming from the garage door, the garage door feeling unusually heavy when opening and closing manually, the garage door opening unevenly or at an angle, and the garage door opener working hard to open the garage door. These are all signs that garage door spring repair is necessary and should be done as quickly as possible by a professional garage door repair technician at Prime Craft Garage Doors. Garage door spring repair is a very high tension repair and should never be attempted as a DIY project.

Premium Quality Springs for Maximum Performance
At Prime Craft Garage Doors, we use premium quality springs from reliable sources. We also carry high cycle springs rated at 25000 cycles, 50000 cycles, and more than 50000 cycles, these high cycle springs may be more expensive but they last much longer than standard 10000 cycle springs and can save you money in the long run, it is also important to replace both springs at once, even if only one is broken, since the other is likely near the end of its life cycle.

Regular maintenance will help extend the life of our springs and prevent them from failing, we can lube our springs, check them for rust and metal fatigue, and examine their balance and safety devices. We recommend at least one professional session per year.
