Garage Door Spring Repair and Replacement for Hanover homes and businesses
Torsion and extension springs carry the entire weight of the door, so when one snaps the door becomes dangerous to move by hand. Springs are wound under extreme tension and are not a do-it-yourself part. We replace them in matched pairs, size the new set to your door's actual weight and cycle life, and rebalance the door before we leave.
The most common call we get from Hanover is a homeowner who heard a bang from the garage overnight and now finds the door far too heavy to lift. That is a broken torsion spring, and it is the single most frequent garage door failure there is. It is also the one part you should not attempt yourself, because those springs hold enough stored energy to break bones.

Paul V.Spring repair & replacement questions, answered
How do I know if my garage door spring is broken?
The clearest sign is a loud bang from the garage, often overnight, followed by a door that is suddenly far too heavy to lift by hand. Look at the torsion spring on the bar above the door: a broken one has a visible two to three inch gap. The opener may also hum and strain without moving the door, or move it a few inches then stop.
Should both springs be replaced if only one broke?
Yes, on a two-spring door. They are installed at the same time and wear at the same rate, so the surviving spring is typically within weeks or months of failing too. Replacing the pair costs far less than paying a second callout, and a mismatched pair puts the door out of balance.
How long do garage door springs last?
Springs are rated in cycles, one cycle being one open and one close. A standard 10,000-cycle spring lasts roughly seven years on a door used four times a day. High-cycle springs rated at 20,000 or more cost modestly more and can double that lifespan, which is usually worth it on a door that is the main entrance to the house.
Why is my garage door so loud?
Nine times out of ten it is the rollers. Builder-grade steel rollers run on exposed bearings that dry out, flat-spot and then grind in the track. Swapping to sealed nylon rollers is inexpensive and makes an immediate difference. Loose hinges, a dry torsion bar and an unbalanced door also contribute.
What areas around Hanover do you cover?
We cover Hanover and the surrounding communities, and we service all of Michigan. If you are on the edge of our usual patch, call and ask. We will tell you honestly whether we can get to you quickly or whether you are better served by someone closer.
How much does garage door repair cost in Hanover?
Small repairs such as sensor realignment, a roller swap or a limit adjustment are usually the minimum service charge. A torsion spring replacement on a standard double door is the most common job and sits in the low hundreds for a matched pair fitted. Opener repairs depend on whether it is a gear kit or a logic board. You get a flat number before we start, not an hourly rate.
