Understanding Common Garage Door Issues

As a technician, I've encountered a variety of garage door problems. Here are some common issues homeowners face:

Broken Springs

Garage door springs bear the weight of the door, making them susceptible to wear and tear. A broken spring can render the door inoperable and poses safety risks. Signs of a broken spring include a loud bang, the door being heavy to lift, or the door not opening at all.

Misaligned or Damaged Tracks

The tracks guide the door as it opens and closes. If they become misaligned or damaged, the door may not operate smoothly or could become stuck. Regular inspection and maintenance can prevent this issue.

Worn or Damaged Rollers

Rollers facilitate the smooth movement of the garage door along the tracks. Over time, they can wear out or become damaged, leading to noisy or jerky door operations. Replacing worn rollers can enhance the door's performance.

Faulty Garage Door Opener

Issues with the garage door opener can range from dead batteries in the remote to more complex electrical problems. If your opener is unresponsive or operates intermittently, it's essential to have it inspected by a professional.

Noisy OperationUnusual noises during the door's operation can indicate underlying issues such as loose hardware, worn rollers, or the need for lubrication. Addressing these noises promptly can prevent more significant problems.

Should your garage have two springs or one?

Typical residential garage doors have 1-2 torsion springs. You can use both, and both are good options. However two springs might be a better option

Benefits of two springs

The primary benefit of having two garage door springs is that if one breaks, you still have one on there. Most of the time if one springs breaks, you can still lift the door with your garage door opener and your strength if it's an emergency. Sometimes you still won't be able to lift it depending on the door weight, but most of the time you can. We don't recommend you running your garage door if you have one broken spring because it can put wear and tear on your garage door opener. Your best action is to call a garage door repair company to come out and fix it.

Another benefit of having two springs is that if one spring breaks while you are using your garage door, the door won't come crashing down. With one spring on there still working, that will keep the garage door from slamming to the ground. If your garage door has one torsion spring, and that spring breaks mid lift, there will be nothing holding your garage door. This can cause massive damage to your garage door opener, and also cause damage to your garage door when it slams on the ground.

Lastly, two garage door springs allow the springs to distribute the weight evenly, providing some benefit of longevity to your springs.

What is the price difference?

The price difference is about 100$ more if you want to upgrade to two springs instead of just one.
