Spring Repair FAQ
Answers about garage door spring repair and replacement in White House, TN.
Can I replace just one panel instead of the whole door?
Often, yes - if the rest of the door is structurally sound and we can source a matching panel. Single-panel replacement is meaningfully cheaper than a full new door. The tech checks panel availability and color match during the free inspection.
What is included in a garage door tune-up?
Lubrication of hinges, rollers, springs, and bearings; a balance check; spring-tension adjustment if needed; hardware tightening; safety-sensor verification; a reverse-on-obstruction test; and a cable inspection - about 45 minutes on a typical two-car door.
How often should I get a garage door tune-up?
Once a year is the standard, especially with temperature swings, dust, or coastal salt air. The garage door is the largest moving part on most homes and cycles 1,500+ times a year - an annual tune-up extends spring life, catches problems early, and keeps a new-install warranty valid.
My garage door spring just broke - is it safe to lift the door manually?
No. A broken torsion spring removes the counterweight, so the door becomes its full 150 to 200 pounds of dead weight on the cables and opener. Lifting manually is how people hurt their back, snap the other cable, or drop a panel. Leave the door where it is and call us - same-day dispatch is the norm.
My car is trapped inside and the door won't open - what do I do?
Don't force it open. If the spring or cable failed, forcing it can drop the door. If the spring is intact and only the opener is broken, the red emergency-release cord lets you lift the door manually; if the spring is broken, do not pull the release. Call us - car-trapped-inside is a true emergency and we dispatch within hours.
The door closes without reversing - is that a real safety issue?
Yes. Photo-eye reverse-on-obstruction sensors are federally required on every residential garage door made since 1993 - they make the door reverse if a person, pet, or object breaks the beam. A door that closes without reversing is genuinely dangerous around kids and pets. Same-day fix available.
