Why a broken spring stops everything

Your garage door is the heaviest moving object in the house — a typical double door weighs 150 to 300 pounds — and the springs carry almost all of it. When one lets go, usually with a bang that sounds like a gunshot, the opener is suddenly asked to lift the full weight. It can't. The door either refuses to move, lifts a few inches and drops, or rises crooked and jams. Running the opener against a dead spring is how a $189 repair turns into a stripped gear, bent top section, or snapped cable, so the right move is to stop, leave the door where it is, and call.

Matched to your door, not pulled off a shelf

Apollo technicians weigh the door and measure the drum, shaft, and track before choosing a spring, because a spring that is even slightly off throws the whole system out of balance: the opener strains, the door drifts, and the new spring fails early. Our vans carry a full range of torsion and extension springs so the correct one is almost always on board for a same-day swap, and on doors with two springs we replace both — the survivor has the same cycle count as the one that just broke.

High-cycle springs for doors that work hard

Standard springs are rated for around 10,000 cycles, which a family that uses the garage as the front door burns through in five to seven years. We fit oil-tempered, high-cycle springs rated for 25,000 cycles or more as our default, galvanized against the humidity and salt air that corrode ordinary steel in coastal markets. The cost difference is small; the difference in years is not.

Balanced, tested, and safe before we leave

A spring replacement isn't finished when the spring is on. We wind it to the correct tension, balance the door so it holds at waist height on its own, reset the opener's force and travel limits, check the cables, rollers, and bearings that were stressed when the spring failed, and run the safety reversal test. You get a written report of what we found, and every Apollo repair carries a lifetime workmanship guarantee.

Spring Replacement FAQs

Can I use my garage door while the spring is broken?+

Please don't. With a broken spring the opener is lifting the full weight of the door and can burn out or bend the top panel. If you must get a car out, two adults can lift the door manually with care — but the safest option is to leave it closed and book a same-day repair.

Should I replace both springs or just the broken one?+

Both, if the door has two. They were installed together and have the same wear; replacing only one almost always means a second call-out within months, and a mismatched pair unbalances the door.

How long does spring replacement take?+

Most spring replacements take 45 to 90 minutes including balancing and the safety check. The springs for standard residential doors are on the van, so there's no waiting on parts.

Is replacing a garage door spring dangerous?+

Yes. Torsion springs are under hundreds of pounds of tension and cause serious injuries every year when homeowners attempt them with the wrong tools. Our technicians use proper winding bars and the job is covered by our insurance and guarantee.

How much does it cost?+

Spring replacement starts at $189 for a single spring on a standard door. You'll get the exact price in writing after the technician measures your door and before any work begins.
