Understanding Garage Door Springs
Garage door springs play a critical role in the functionality of your garage door by counterbalancing the weight of the door, making it easy to lift and lower. There are two main types of springs used in garage doors: torsion springs and extension springs. Torsion springs are located above the door, while extension springs are found on either side of the door. Both types absorb energy when the door is closed, and release it when the door opens. Because they are under extreme tension, proper functioning is essential for safety and convenience.
Signs You Need Springs Replacement
Recognizing the signs that your garage door springs may need replacement is key to avoiding further issues. Here are some common indicators:
- Inconsistent Door Movement: If your garage door is inconsistency moving, it could be a sign of weakening springs.
- Loud Noises During Operation: If you hear loud pops, cracks, or bangs when your door operates, this may indicate that springs are about to fail.
- Door Won't Open: If your garage door is stuck in a closed position and the opener runs without opening it, there could be an issue with the springs.
- Visible Damage: Inspect the springs for physical damage, such as rust, gaps, or any visible wear and tear.
Addressing these signs early can save you time, money, and potential injury.
