Garage Door Spring Repair in Kannapolis, NC
A broken spring is one of the most common — and most dangerous — garage door problems. Springs are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury if handled without the right tools and training.
If your door won't open, sounds like it's straining, or you heard a loud bang followed by the door not moving, it's almost always the spring.
Signs Your Spring Is Broken
A loud “bang” from the garage followed by the door not opening
The door feels unusually heavy when lifted manually
A visible gap in the spring above the door
The door opens a few inches then stops
Torsion vs. Extension Springs
We repair and replace both torsion springs (mounted horizontally above the door) and extension springs (mounted along the upper tracks) — common on homes throughout Kannapolis and Cabarrus County built across the last several decades.
Why Not DIY This One
Garage door springs store enough tension to cause severe injury. This is the one garage door repair we always recommend against attempting yourself — even experienced DIYers.
