Garage Door Spring Repairs

Garage door springs are crucial components that support the weight of the door, allowing it to open and close smoothly. However, due to the tension they operate under, springs are prone to wear and tear, necessitating regular maintenance and timely repairs. At Doors Direct, we specialise in garage door spring repair services across Brisbane, ensuring your door operates safely and efficiently.

The Importance of Spring Maintenance

Regular maintenance of garage door springs is essential to prevent unexpected breakdowns and potential safety hazards. Springs bear the brunt of your door’s weight, completing numerous cycles over time. Without proper care, they can become a source of inconvenience and danger.

Common Issues and Safety Concerns

Broken or malfunctioning springs are a common issue with sectional and panel lift garage doors. When a spring breaks, the door becomes extremely heavy and challenging to lift, posing a significant safety risk. Continuing to use the door with broken springs can lead to further damage or cause the door to crash unexpectedly.

How to Identify Spring Problems

• Difficulty in Operation: If you notice your garage door struggling to open or close, it may indicate a spring issue.
• Visible Wear: Frayed cables, rust, or gaps in the springs can signal the need for replacement.
• Unusual Noises: Loud creaking or snapping sounds during operation often point to spring problems.

Attempting to repair garage door springs without professional expertise can be dangerous. Here are some reasons to opt for professional services:
