After a garage door spring failed after two years in Rocky Hill, CT, we weighed the door and installed a stronger, custom high-cycle torsion spring.

When a garage door spring fails only two years after being replaced, it often indicates that the previous spring was not correctly matched to the actual weight of the door. That was the situation on a recent service call in Rocky Hill, CT.

To ensure this issue would not happen again, we weighed the garage door to calculate the precise tension and spring capacity required. Using those exact measurements, we provided and installed a bigger, stronger, custom-sized high-cycle torsion spring.

High-cycle torsion springs are built to handle significantly more daily operations over time compared to standard springs. After completing the installation, we verified the balance and operation of the door to make sure it runs smoothly and safely.
