 While occasionally springs can be repaired if they are only suffering from minor flaws and are relatively new, most of the time both torsion and extension springs will need to be completely replaced due to the nature of how they break.   

Torsion Springs

Torsion springs act to operate your garage door by relying on the force created by twisting them. Torsion Springs are stronger than extension springs and usually last longer, but the downside is that they cost more upfront. They are generally constructed from steel and coiled in a rounded shape. Torsion springs can also be found on some models of commercial and industrial garage doors, and we provide services for those as well at North Decatur Garage Door Pros.   

Extension Springs  

The other general type of garage door springs available are extension springs. Usually extension springs are smaller than torsion springs and are located on either side of your garage door. Depending on the size of the door, you may only have one spring. Extension springs operate the door by extending, just like their name implies, to open the door and then contracting when it is time for the door to close. Extension springs are an older style of garage door springs and are less expensive then torsion springs, however they carry more of a risk of danger, especially if not properly installed.
