Do you have a Broken a Torsion Spring on your Garage Door?
What is a Torsion Spring and Can you Fix it yourself?
A Torsion Spring is located at the top of your garage door and is normally Black. The Torsion Springs play a vital role every time the garage door is opened. Here is an explanation of how they work and what to do if you need to repair them.
First, How do Torsion Springs Work?
The Torsion spring works by a twisting motion, which stores mechanical energy and are made of dense metal. It stores energy and that energy is used to help pull up the garage door when you open it.
What does a Torsion Spring Do?
The Torsion springs are installed horizontally about the garage door opening, from the inside. Pulling the door down, there are cables attached in the corner of the track. Pulling the door open, it then will wind the spring, causing it to energize, which then transfers the energy to the door and thus making it easier to lift the garage door open, with ease.
How long does Torsion Springs last?
When you open and close the garage door, the steel in the Torsion spring will weaken over time and the door will become too heavy. Eventually the Torsion spring is going to break. Normally the spring breaks in the closed position, leaving your car stuck in the garage.
Keep in mind, living in Pensacola, Florida, the Torsion spring will be affected by the salt in our air and it will corrode and rust much faster than if you lived elsewhere. The Torsion Spring will last normally 7 years in the Pensacola, Florida area.

1. What do you hear when you operate your Garage Door?
Observe your door in action and listen. Is it running smoothly? Dragging on the sides? are the (springs, pulleys and cables) look symmetrical?

What is the Difference between a Torsion Spring and an Extension Spring?
A Garage Door has 2 types of Springs.
1) The Torsion Spring is located in a shaft above your garage door.
2) The Extension spring are small springs attached to the sides of the garage door.
When you open and close your garage door, the top Torsion spring winds and unwinds in order to lift the garage door.
The Extension spring will expand when the door opens and closes.
Both springs are under a lot of pressure and this repair should be handled by a professional, such as Overhead Door & Operator in Pensacola.
We offer a $68 service call to come out to your home, inspect and provide maintenance to your door. If anything is broken while we are out, you will only pay for the parts needed.

How long do Garage Doors Last?
Most typically last 15-30 years with proper care however, there may come a time when you need a new garage door.
Getting a new door could be due to damage or just wanting to add curb appeal.
DESIGN:
First, you want your new door to be attractive and functional as possible.
MATERIALS:
Garage doors are available in a variety of high-quality materials. The most popular residential garage door materials include vinyl, aluminum, galvanized steel, fiberglass, and wood. The good thing about galvanized steel or aluminum garage doors is that they are very durable — they do not wrap, crack, or de-laminate.
They are less likely to rust. Different materials withstand weather conditions differently, so it’s important to choose a garage door material that will be able to stand up to our hurricane prone weather in Pensacola.
Durability
Durability is definitely something you want to look for in your new garage door. Even though garage doors can last 15 to 30 years with regular garage door maintenance, there likely will come a time when they require repair due to an accident, heavy usage, old age, or a heavy storm. Choosing a well-made, high-quality garage door that is known for its durability will help it last longer.

We all love vintage things. The nostalgia that can go along with a vintage item may make us hang onto things that have outlived their purpose or have even become unsafe.
Old, rusty and faulty garage doors aren’t only an eyesore, but a safety issue as well.
