Visibly broken springs? This is obviously the #1 sign that you need to replace garage door springs. But doing a simple visual inspection each month could help you spot trouble before it happens. Then, you can reduce the risk of the springs failing and can replace them before they get to their breaking points. Here are some things to look for during those monthly inspections:

• Failing the Balance Test. When springs are near the end of their lifespans, they lift less and less. See if your garage door spring’s muscle is slipping or holding strong by disconnecting the door from the opener and manually evaluating the door’s balance. You can tell an unbalanced door if it looks uneven or slanted while opening or closing; if it makes a strange sound when traveling up or down the tracks; if it takes longer than usual to open or close; if it won’t open or close at all.
• Apparent Rust. Rust is never a good sign, and that’s certainly true for your garage door’s springs. Significant rust not only means that the springs are deteriorating at a rapid rate, but your door’s system as a whole probably hasn’t gotten the proper care it needs in quite some time.
• Straight Stretches in Spring Coils. Extension springs are literally on their last coil when you see fewer and fewer coils present. A straight piece in the spring is a surefire sign of spring failure that requires immediate attention.

Garage door won’t open? If you press the button on your garage door opener and it doesn’t open, this is a sign that one of your garage door springs is broken. The function of the springs is to lift the garage door, so if you press the button and it doesn’t open or if you attempt to open it manually and it won’t go up, there’s a good chance one or both of the springs are broken.

Door making loud noises? A certain level of noise is to be expected when you open and close your garage door. But a sudden increase in noise could be an indication that it may be time to replace your garage door springs. And if the sound you hear is a loud thumping, the problem may be more serious: it could be a broken spring. Remember, if you see a broken spring, contact professionals to replace it. If it’s not done properly, it could lead to harm.

Springs do the heavy lifting for your garage door. But like most mechanical parts, they wear down over time and regular use and won’t work as well. Here are the two types of springs:

Torsion Springs: These are the most common type and are installed on modern door systems. This type of spring runs parallel to the door on the inside wall of the garage and uses a coiling motion to store and release energy.

Extension Springs: These are positioned perpendicular to the door above each door’s tracks. This type of spring uses the door’s motion to extend and collect energy each time the door closes. Then, the springs release that energy by contracting when the door opens.
