Where to start

Think of this page as a map of the door. Start at the part that worries you, and follow it to the service page that describes the fix, the parts involved and how a door usually runs afterwards.

Springs

Springs & Hardware

The spring system is matched to the door's weight, and getting that match right is what makes a door balanced. These services replace worn springs and cables and set the tension correctly.

  1. Steel and nylon garage-door rollers with long stems lie beside a detached hinge on a workbench. — Garage Door Roller Replacement, Brampton
    Garage Door Roller ReplacementEvery morning the door announces itself: a rattle on the way up, a grinding squeal on the way down, loud enough that the neighbours know when you leave. A spray of lubricant settled it for a day or two, then the racket…
  2. Gloved hands holding two metal garage-door hinges side by side, one discolored with a visible crack and the other bright silver. — Garage Door Hinge Replacement, Brampton

    Torsion Spring ReplacementThe door starts to rise, gets about the height of your knee, then shudders and reverses. The opener sounds strained, and the top section flexes as the trolley pulls on it, because the motor is doing work the spring used…

    Extension Spring ReplacementOpen the door by hand and it drifts back down on its own, a little at first and then all at once. Nothing is broken that you can see, but the springs along the tracks look tired, rusty and slightly sagging.
  7. A person stands beside a closed sectional door beneath its overhead spring assembly. — Garage Door Balance Adjustment, Brampton
