Garage Door Springs— Frequently Asked Questions

What type of garage door spring do I need?
Most garage doors use either torsion springs mounted above the door or extension springs mounted alongside the tracks. Check your current setup and use the chart above to identify the correct replacement.
How do I identify the correct garage door torsion spring?
Measure the wire size, inside diameter, overall length, and wind direction of the existing spring. Matching these specifications ensures proper door balance and operation.
How often should garage door springs be replaced?
Most standard springs are rated for approximately 10,000 cycles. Springs should be replaced when they break, show signs of wear, or no longer properly balance the door.
Can I replace just one garage door spring?
If your door uses two springs, replacing both at the same time is generally recommended since both springs typically wear at a similar rate.
