Torsion spring pair + cables
- Found
- Left spring snapped, right spring at the same cycle count, both lift cables frayed at the drum.
- Did
- Replaced both springs sized to the door weight, new cables and drums, rebalanced and reset opener limits.
Garage door springs do the heavy lifting. When one breaks, the opener cannot safely lift the door and the door cannot be trusted to stay up. We replace springs matched to your door's exact weight and balance, and we replace them in pairs when the door was built for pairs.



“He showed me the snapped spring on his phone before he said a word about price. Three options, all written down. I picked the middle one and the door was running in under an hour.”
“Two other companies told me I needed a new door. Garage Door Corps found a frayed cable and a bent track bracket. Fixed both. The photos made it obvious they were right.”
“I got a written report with pictures of every part they checked, including the ones that were fine. Nobody has ever done that for me on any home repair.”
“The opener was the problem, but he tested the door balance first to prove it. New belt-drive is silent and the app works. Clean truck, clean uniform, on time.”
“Said 'not today' on the second spring and he was completely fine with it. No pressure at all. Called back a month later and had him do it.”
We do not quote a repair we have not looked at, and we do not start a repair you have not approved in writing. Ask us how the service call works when you book and we will explain it up front.
If your door uses two torsion springs, they were installed at the same time and have the same cycle wear. Replacing both avoids a second service call soon after. We will show you the wear on the second spring and let you decide.
We recommend you do not. The opener is not designed to lift the full weight of the door and can be damaged, and a door with a broken spring can drop unexpectedly.
Most spring replacements are complete in about an hour, including the full-system inspection and rebalancing.

A door with a broken spring weighs a few hundred pounds with nothing holding it. Leave it, pull the emergency release only if you know how, and call. We will tell you honestly when we can be there and what the visit will cost before we roll.
