Garage door springs are essential components that counterbalance the weight of the door, allowing it to open and close safely. A broken spring can render your garage door inoperable and pose serious safety risks. At Mike's Garage Door Repair Center, we provide professional broken garage door spring repair services in Tarrant County, TX, ensuring that your door operates safely, reliably, and smoothly. A malfunctioning spring is not just inconvenient. It's dangerous. Attempting DIY repairs can result in serious injury due to the high tension these springs carry. Our trained technicians handle all spring repairs with the tools, expertise, and safety protocols required for precise, long-lasting results.
Professional broken garage door spring repair services are essential for homeowners and businesses throughout Tarrant County. Our comprehensive service ensures your door operates safely and reliably.
Garage door springs are under constant tension and can fail without warning. Common signs of a broken or failing spring include:
If you notice any of these symptoms, it's crucial to contact a professional immediately. Delaying repairs can lead to further damage to your door, opener, or hardware, and creates a serious safety hazard.
We service both main types of residential and commercial garage door springs:
Torsion Springs: Mounted above the door, these springs rotate to lift the door. They are common on residential doors and require precise tension adjustments.
Extension Springs: Located along the sides of the door, these springs extend and contract to counterbalance the door weight. They are frequently found in lighter doors and commercial applications.
Our team has the experience and tools to repair or replace both torsion and extension springs safely and efficiently, restoring full door functionality.
Repairing a broken garage door spring is a high-risk task that requires skill, precision, and specialized equipment. Our professional process includes:
Comprehensive Safety Assessment: Inspect the door, spring system, cables, and hardware for damage and safety hazards.
Secure Stabilization: The door is stabilized to prevent sudden movement during repair.
Spring Replacement or Repair: Broken springs are replaced with high-quality components, calibrated for proper tension and balanced operation.
Cable and Hardware Check: All related cables, pulleys, and mounting hardware are inspected and replaced if necessary.
Operational Testing: The door is tested for smooth, balanced operation, and opener integration is verified.
Safety Verification: Sensors, auto-reverse features, and emergency release functions are checked to ensure full compliance with safety standards.
This structured approach guarantees that the repair is safe, precise, and long-lasting.
Garage door springs store a significant amount of tension. DIY repair attempts can lead to:
Professional repair ensures the correct springs are installed, tension is accurately calibrated, and the door operates safely and reliably for years.
Regular maintenance can extend the lifespan of your garage door springs:
Combining preventive maintenance with professional repairs helps avoid unexpected breakdowns and enhances overall door safety.
Spring replacement isn't DIY territory, it requires specialized tools and training. We replace hundreds of springs annually throughout Tarrant County, understanding exactly which spring type, size, and cycle rating your door needs. We also know that when one spring breaks, its mate is likely near failure too, so we recommend replacing both springs together to prevent another breakdown weeks later.

Garage door springs have a finite lifespan measured in cycles (one open/close = one cycle). Standard springs are rated for 10,000 cycles (about 7-10 years for typical use). Springs break due to normal wear, metal fatigue, rust and corrosion, extreme temperature changes, or lack of lubrication. If your door is 7+ years old and has never had springs replaced, it's within expected lifespan.
Never attempt to open a garage door with a broken spring manually or with the opener. The door becomes extremely heavy (150-400+ lbs) without spring assistance and can fall suddenly, causing injury or property damage. If your spring breaks with the door closed, leave it closed and call for service. If it's open when the spring breaks, don't close it, we can secure it in place during repair.
Yes, strongly recommended. When one spring breaks, the other has experienced the same cycles and stress and will likely break soon, often within weeks or months. Replacing both springs together saves you the inconvenience and cost of a second service call soon after. It also ensures balanced door operation since both springs are equally tensioned and new.
High-cycle springs are rated for 25,000-30,000 cycles (compared to standard 10,000-cycle springs), lasting 2-3 times longer. They cost about 30-50% more but provide significantly better value over time. We recommend high-cycle springs for frequently-used doors (multiple family members, home businesses) or doors in hard-to-reach garages. For most homeowners, they're an excellent long-term investment.
For experienced professionals, typical spring replacement takes 1-2 hours including removal of old springs, installation of new springs, precise tension adjustment, balance testing, and safety checks. Unusual door configurations or additional issues discovered during service may extend this time. We'll provide an accurate estimate when we assess your specific situation.
