Picture this: it's a brisk morning, and you're running late for work. You hop in your car, press the button to open your garage door, but instead of smoothly gliding upwards as usual... nothing happens. You try again – still no luck. After a quick inspection, you realize that one or both springs on your garage door are broken. This is where Ortega Garage Door Repair can lend a hand with our reliable broken spring repair services.
A properly functioning garage door may seem like magic to some, but it’s really down to physics and some hard-working components - especially the springs.The springs do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to moving your garage door up and down because they store mechanical energy when they get wound tight as the door closes.This energy gets released when you want to open the door again; however if those crucial parts are damaged or worn out over time from constant use or due environmental factors such as extreme temperatures - well let's just say that their 'spring' isn't so sprightly anymore.
Identifying problems early will save you stress (and possibly money) later on. Look out for these signs:
Why You Shouldn't DIY Broken Spring Repair
Replacing a broken spring may appear to be an easy task, yet it is more complex than changing a light bulb or fixing a dripping faucet. Though it may look easy, fixing a broken spring isn't as straightforward as other repairs like replacing a light bulb or stopping up a dripping faucet.The springs on your garage door are under high tension and if mishandled can cause serious injury. This is why we strongly recommend against attempting to DIY garage door spring repairs.
