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.

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.

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.

What Makes Professional Service So Important for Home Spring Repair in Westminster
Springs are wound under extreme tension. When one breaks, it releases that stored energy all at once, which makes it a genuine safety risk. Safe replacement calls for specialized tools, exact calculations, and proper training to handle high-tension components.
Use the wrong spring size, wind it incorrectly, or install it poorly, and you invite early failure, an unbalanced door, or dangerous operation. Certified technicians measure and calculate the correct wire gauge, length, and inside diameter based on how much your door weighs and how often it runs.
Professional repair protects the rest of the system too. Springs matched to the door take strain off the cables, drums, tracks, and opener motor, which extends the working life of the entire door assembly.

A broken spring is always replaced, not repaired. Once the steel fatigues and snaps, it cannot be safely rewound or welded back to its rated strength, so a new spring matched to your door is the only safe fix.
Torsion springs mount on a shaft above the door and use twisting tension to lift it, while extension springs run along the horizontal tracks and stretch as the door closes. Most doors use torsion springs because they handle heavier weights and higher cycle counts more reliably.
One cycle is a single full open and close of the door. Springs are rated in cycles rather than years, so a door that runs dozens of times a day wears through its rated life far faster than one that opens a few times a day.
No. Forcing the opener to move a door with a failing spring strains the motor, cables, and tracks and can turn a single spring replacement into a much larger repair. Stop using the door and have it inspected.
When a spring loses tension, the cables, drums, tracks, and opener take on the extra load they were never meant to carry. That added strain accelerates wear and often leads to multiple failures instead of one.
Yes. Our technicians measure the wire gauge, length, and inside diameter and calculate the correct replacement based on your door’s weight and cycle needs, even when the original springs are no longer labeled.
A door that opens or closes unevenly, drifts down on its own when stopped halfway, or feels heavier than usual is often signaling worn springs. Catching it early lets you replace the spring before it fails.
Regular lubrication of the springs and moving parts, periodic balance and tension checks, and keeping the tracks clean all reduce friction and even wear. Routine service is the most reliable way to get the full rated life out of a spring.
