Frequently asked in Houston

What causes a garage door torsion spring to break?

In Houston, garage door torsion springs can break due to metal fatigue over time. Each time you open or close your door, the spring coils and uncoils, putting stress on the metal. Eventually, this stress leads to cracks and eventual breakage. While some springs are designed for tens of thousands of cycles, they don't last forever. Factors like excessive use or improper installation can also shorten their lifespan. When a torsion spring breaks, it can make your garage door very heavy or impossible to lift manually.
