Spot the Warning Signs of aBroken Garage Door Spring
A broken garage door spring isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a safety hazard that demands immediate attention. With over 30 years of experience serving the Bay Area, our team at Bay Area Doors has seen it all and repaired it all. Springs are essential for the smooth and safe operation of your garage door, and when they fail, your door can become difficult to operate—or even dangerous to use.
Door Won’t Open or Feels Heavy
If your garage door refuses to open or feels extremely heavy to lift manually, it’s a strong indicator of a broken spring. Without a functional spring to counterbalance the weight, the door becomes almost impossible to move safely.
Loud Bang From the Garage
A sudden, loud noise—like a firecracker or gunshot—coming from your garage often signals a spring snapping under tension. This is a common sign of a broken spring, even if the door appears to be working afterward.
Gaps or Damage in the Spring
Inspect your garage door springs for gaps, stretched coils, or a complete break. A functioning spring will have tight, uniform coils, while a broken one may look visibly damaged or separated.
Door Opens Unevenly or Jerks
If your garage door moves unevenly or jerks while opening or closing, it may be due to a spring failure. Uneven operation places additional strain on the door’s other components and can lead to further damage.

Garage Door Spring Repair ServicesQuestions and Answers
Have questions about garage door spring repairs? Here are the answers to some of the most common concerns to help you make an informed decision.
Call Bay Area Doors first if your garage door no longer opens or closes. Usually garage door springs snap in the closed position, as this is the time when most tension is on the springs.
We will do the following work when replacing the springs:
Turn off power to the garage door so it doesn’t accidentally move up or down. This is also a safety precaution so that no fingers or hands get caught in the springs during replacement.
Don't touch the existing extension springs. Since the garage door will lower during this process, it’s important to make sure any hands, feet, tools, or other objects aren’t placed anywhere near it.
Hiring a professional to handle garage door spring repair and replacement tends to be a much easier and safer option for homeowners. Removing or repairing garage springs can be a dangerous job, but professionals have the experience and equipment to do it safely and efficiently. Unless your springs only need a minor repair, such as lubrication or fixing a minor balance issue, be sure to call Bay Area Doors!
