The most common garage door failure — and the most dangerous to ignore

When a garage door suddenly refuses to open, slams shut, or feels impossibly heavy, a broken spring is the culprit nine times out of ten. Springs do all the heavy lifting: a standard double-car door weighs 150 to 250 pounds, and the springs counterbalance nearly every ounce of it so your opener — or your arm — only has to move a few pounds. When a spring snaps, that entire weight lands on components that were never designed to carry it. Running the opener with a broken spring can burn out the motor, bend the top panel, or snap the cables, turning a straightforward repair into a far more expensive one.

Torsion and extension springs, matched to your exact door

Kozmo technicians carry a full range of torsion and extension springs on every truck, so the right spring for your door's weight, height, and track configuration is almost always on hand for a same-day swap. We don't guess: each replacement spring is calculated from your door's measured weight and drum size, because an incorrectly matched spring wears out openers, throws doors off balance, and fails early. Where a door uses a pair of springs, we recommend replacing both together — the second spring has endured the same cycle count as the one that just failed, and replacing it now saves a second service call within months.

High-cycle upgrades that last for decades

Standard builder-grade springs are rated around 10,000 open/close cycles — roughly seven years of typical use, and far less for a busy household that treats the garage as the front door. We offer high-cycle springs rated at 25,000 to 50,000 cycles for a modest upcharge. For most families that's the difference between replacing springs every few years and never thinking about them again. Every spring replacement includes fresh safety cables where applicable, a full door balance, track alignment check, and lubrication of rollers and hinges before we leave.

Why spring repair is not a DIY job

Torsion springs are wound under extreme tension — enough stored energy to cause serious injury when released without the correct winding bars and technique. Emergency rooms see the results every year. Our background-checked technicians replace springs safely in under an hour in most cases, test the door through complete cycles, and back the work with a lifetime workmanship guarantee. If you suspect a broken spring, leave the door where it is, keep the opener unplugged, and call us — we'll take it from there.

Spring Repair FAQs

How do I know my garage door spring is broken?+

The most common signs: a loud bang from the garage, a door that won't lift more than a few inches, a visible gap in the coil above the door, cables hanging loose, or a door that feels extremely heavy to lift by hand. If you see any of these, stop using the opener and call us.

Should I replace both springs if only one broke?+

On two-spring doors, yes. Both springs have the same cycle count, so the surviving spring is typically weeks or months from failing. Replacing both in one visit costs far less than two separate service calls and keeps the door properly balanced.

How long does a spring replacement take?+

Most spring replacements are finished in 45 to 60 minutes because we carry the common torsion and extension spring sizes on every truck. That includes rebalancing the door, safety-checking the cables and rollers, and lubricating moving parts.

How long do garage door springs last?+

Standard springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles — roughly 7 years at 4 cycles a day. Our high-cycle upgrade springs are rated for 25,000 to 50,000 cycles and can last 20+ years under the same use.

Is it dangerous to replace a garage door spring myself?+

Yes. Torsion springs store enormous energy and injure DIYers every year. Professional winding bars, correct spring matching, and safe unloading technique are essential — this is one repair that genuinely belongs with a trained technician.
