Garage door spring repair in Boulder
A broken spring is the most common garage door repair. If you heard a loud bang and the door won't lift, or lifts a few inches and stops, a spring has almost certainly snapped.

Boulder sees strong chinook winds, spring hail and quick swings between warm days and freezing nights.
Chinook winds put real strain on garage doors, and cold snaps are when worn springs tend to snap. If you heard a loud bang and the door won't lift, it's almost always a spring.
Don't try to replace torsion springs yourself. They hold a lot of tension and cause serious injuries every year.
Common questions
Should both springs be replaced?
If there are two, replacing both is usually recommended. They wear at the same rate.
Can I replace a spring myself?
It isn't recommended. Torsion springs hold enough tension to cause serious injuries.
Can I open the door with a broken spring?
It's not safe to force it. The door can be very heavy without the spring. Leave it closed until it's fixed if you can.
