Garage door springs are responsible for lifting and lowering the full weight of your door, which can range from 100 to over 250 pounds depending on size and material. When one snaps, you’ll hear a loud bang, the door will refuse to move, and your home is left vulnerable until it’s fixed.
Select Garage Doors specializes in torsion and extension spring repair and replacement for homeowners in Parker, Colorado. Our certified technicians arrive with the most common spring sizes already on the truck, so most jobs are completed in a single visit within 60 to 90 minutes.
Every repair includes a full system inspection covering cables, drums, rollers, and opener calibration to make sure nothing else is compromised. As a veteran-owned company, we hold ourselves to a standard of service built on accountability, precision, and doing the job right the first time.

Why Timely Spring Repair Matters for Your Home
A broken garage door spring isn’t just an inconvenience. It’s a safety hazard. Springs store enough tension to lift a door weighing 100 to 300 pounds, and when one snaps, the door becomes dead weight that can drop without warning.
Attempting a repair without proper training and tools risks serious injury, especially with torsion springs that require calibrated winding bars and precise adjustments.
By working with a certified technician, you protect your home, your family, and the rest of your garage door system. A broken spring left unaddressed can burn out your opener motor, snap cables, or bend tracks, turning a simple fix into a costly multi-part repair.
Routine professional inspections help extend the overall lifespan of your springs and reduce the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns.

Signs Your Garage Door Springs Need Immediate Repair
Catching spring problems early helps you avoid a full failure that leaves your door stuck. While some signs are sudden, others develop gradually.
-
A Loud Bang From the Garage
A Loud Bang From the Garage
A spring snapping under tension produces a sharp crack. If you hear this and the door won't open, a broken spring is almost certainly the cause.
-
The Door Feels Extremely Heavy
The Door Feels Extremely Heavy
Disconnect the opener and lift by hand. A properly sprung door lifts with minimal effort and holds at the halfway point. Dead weight means failed springs.
-
Uneven or Crooked Movement
Uneven or Crooked Movement
One spring failing while the other holds causes the door to tilt or rise unevenly, damaging tracks, cables, and the remaining spring.
-
Visible Gap in the Coils
Visible Gap in the Coils
A torsion spring should have tightly wound, evenly spaced coils. A visible separation means it has already snapped.
-
The Opener Strains or Reverses
The Opener Strains or Reverses
Weak springs force the opener to compensate. Louder motor noise, sluggish movement, or mid-cycle reversals all point to impending burnout.
-
Jerky, Stuttering Movement
Jerky, Stuttering Movement
A door that hesitates or lurches has worn springs. This is the ideal window to repair before the problem escalates.

Benefits of Keeping Your Garage Door Springs in Good Shape
Staying ahead of spring wear protects your home, your wallet, and your routine. With proactive spring care, you’ll enjoy:
-
Safe, Reliable Operation: No unexpected door drops, no surprise failures, and no risk of injury from a spring giving out while someone is near the door.
-
Opener Motor Protection: Healthy springs carry the door's weight so your opener doesn't have to. This prevents premature motor burnout and extends your opener's lifespan.
-
Lower Total Repair Costs: Fixing a worn spring before it snaps prevents expensive secondary damage to cables, drums, and panels.
-
Fewer Emergency Calls: Regular inspections catch fatigue early, reducing the need for after-hours service and the premium pricing that comes with it.
-
Longer Spring Lifespan: Routine lubrication and tension checks counteract the stress that temperature swings place on the metal, helping your springs last well beyond their expected cycle rating.

Don't Take Our Word For It — Hear From 1,900+ Five-Star Reviews
Had a garage door put in in February it broke down in August. But they came and fixed it up all nice now it works great and they didn’t charge me for the repair service. So I think they did great on the fixer upper. And I would recommend them for garage door services they were nice and super professional about the whole thing. They let me know they stand by there products which is always a good motto to have and fixed me up nicely

I scheduled an appointment for an estimate. They were able to install right then. It didn’t take long and they cleaned everything up after themselves. The install went very well and they were meticulous about where the wires were placed coming out of the ceiling and kept it organized. The door opener is very quiet which is really nice.
Brandy Heitzenrater
I am so glad I called Select Garage doors. My spring broke on my garage door and locked me out of access to my house. They responded same day and were fast and efficient making sure we were aware of all things needed to keep the garage working. Technician was super informative and friendly as well. 100% recommend.
Lauren Dobyns
I called on a Saturday because my garage opener stopped working. Shaun came out the same day. Provided an estimate and he was back Sunday morning to replace it. Highly recommend!
Eric Peck
I had a very noisy garage door repair issue that was waking up my kids every morning. The technician replaced the rollers and checked the Genie opener repair needs. It’s now whisper-quiet! I am so happy with the price and the same-day garage door service.
Elliott Denisse

We strongly advise against it. Springs are under extreme tension, enough to cause serious injury if mishandled. Professional technicians use specialized winding bars and safety protocols designed specifically for this work.
Yes. Both springs endure the same number of cycles, so when one breaks, the other is close behind. Replacing both at once avoids a second service call and prevents the remaining spring from failing and causing additional damage.
Call us at (720) 339-2442 or use our online booking form. We offer same-day service for broken springs and flexible scheduling for planned repairs.
Torsion spring replacement typically ranges from $150 to $350 for a pair, including parts and labor. Extension springs run $100 to $200. The final cost depends on your door size and whether additional components need attention. We provide a detailed estimate before starting any work.
Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the coils every three to four months and schedule annual professional maintenance for tension checks and balance testing. For even longer life, ask about high-cycle springs rated for 20,000 or more cycles.
Spring life is measured in cycles, not years. Most are rated for about 10,000 cycles, or roughly 7 to 10 years of normal use. Temperature swings, rust, and lack of lubrication are common contributors to early failure. Homes where the garage door opens and closes more than four times a day will reach that cycle limit faster.
Most replacements are completed in 60 to 90 minutes. If both springs need replacing or there is secondary damage to cables or drums, the visit may extend to about two hours. We carry common spring sizes on our trucks, so parts delays are rare.
