About this service in St. Jacobs
Springs do the lifting; the opener only guides the door. When a spring breaks you usually hear it — a single loud bang from the garage — and afterwards the door feels impossibly heavy or will not lift at all.
Spring work is the highest-tension job on a garage door and is not a DIY repair. We measure wire size, inside diameter and length, replace springs in matched pairs where appropriate, wind them to the actual weight of your door and re-check balance through the full travel.
In St. Jacobs we work carefully with legacy hardware and narrower openings, matching parts where we can and explaining plainly where a full section or track replacement is the better call.
Warning signs
- A loud bang from the garage, then a door that will not lift
- A visible gap in the coil of a torsion spring
- The door feels extremely heavy when lifted by hand
- The door drops quickly instead of holding position halfway

Safely de-tension
Remaining tension is released with winding bars and the old spring and hardware are removed.

New springs are installed, wound to the door weight and the drums and cables are reset evenly.
Balance and test
The door is tested off the opener to confirm it holds mid-travel, then opener force is reset.
