Check Spring Condition
We identify the spring setup and inspect for breaks, fatigue, corrosion, spacing, and related wear.
Springs carry much of the lifting load in a garage door system. When a spring is worn, broken, or no longer balanced correctly, the door can become heavy, uneven, or difficult for the opener to move.
