Roll Up Garage Door Springs – Las Cruces

Toby’s Doors replaces both torsion springs and extension roll up garage door springs in Las Cruces. These springs are what allow you to open and shut your garage door either manually or automatically. Torsion springs, mounted on a bracket above the door, are the most common type. The service life of a torsion spring is typically six or seven years.

How Does a Torsion Spring Work?

Your garage door is held up by two torsion springs mounted on top of the garage door frame. The proper tension of the torsion springs is one of the elements that keep your garage door opening and closing smoothly. The force exerted by this tension can cause serious danger for a homeowner trying to replace the springs him or herself. Since torsion springs are repaired while the door is closed and the springs are under tension, there may be risk of bodily injury.

How about Extension Springs?

Extension springs are mounted on each side of the upper garage door track. They are sometimes recommended when overhead clearance is a problem. Extension springs lift doors through a stretching action. Eventually, the stress and fatigue of opening and closing gives out.
