Smooth, secure, and hassle-free garage door repairs.
When your garage door’s extension springs fail, it can create a dangerous situation that requires immediate professional attention. At Garage Door Repair Fort Myers LLC, we specialize in comprehensive extension spring services that restore your garage door’s safe and reliable operation. Extension springs are critical components that work under extreme tension to counterbalance the weight of your garage door, making it possible to open and close smoothly with minimal effort. These high-tension springs are mounted horizontally above the horizontal tracks on both sides of your garage door opening, stretching and contracting with each door operation cycle.
Our expert technicians understand that extension spring failures are among the most common and potentially hazardous garage door issues homeowners face. When these springs break or lose tension, your garage door becomes extremely heavy and difficult to operate manually, potentially causing injury or further damage to other door components. We provide 24/7 emergency extension spring services because we recognize that spring failures often occur unexpectedly and can leave your home vulnerable to security breaches or prevent you from accessing your vehicle when you need it most.
Extension springs have a finite lifespan based on their cycle rating, typically ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 open-and-close cycles depending on the spring quality and door usage patterns. Environmental factors unique to Fort Myers, including high humidity, salt air exposure, and temperature fluctuations, can accelerate spring deterioration and reduce their operational lifespan. Our comprehensive extension spring services include thorough inspection, precise replacement, proper adjustment, and preventive maintenance to ensure optimal performance and maximum safety for your family and property.

Understanding extension spring systems and their maintenance requirements is essential for ensuring the safety and longevity of your garage door. Here are the most commonly asked questions about extension spring services, along with comprehensive answers to help you make informed decisions about your garage door maintenance and repair needs.
A: Several warning signs indicate that your extension springs may need professional attention, including difficulty opening the door manually, visible gaps or stretched areas in the springs, rust or corrosion on spring coils, uneven door movement, or loud noises during operation. If you notice your garage door opening unevenly, dropping quickly when closing, or requiring excessive force to lift manually, these are clear indicators of spring problems that require immediate professional evaluation. Additionally, if you see frayed or broken safety cables, loose mounting hardware, or notice that your automatic opener is struggling to lift the door, it’s time to schedule a professional inspection to prevent potential safety hazards and more expensive repairs.
A: Extension springs operate under extreme tension and can cause serious injury or death if handled improperly by untrained individuals. These springs store tremendous amounts of energy that can be released suddenly and violently if safety procedures aren’t followed correctly. Professional technicians have specialized tools, safety equipment, and extensive training required to work safely with high-tension springs, including proper tensioning techniques, safety cable installation, and emergency release procedures. Attempting DIY extension spring repairs puts you at risk of severe injury and can also void manufacturer warranties, create liability issues with insurance companies, and potentially cause additional damage to your garage door system that results in much more expensive repairs.
A: Extension springs are typically rated for 10,000 to 20,000 operational cycles, with each cycle representing one complete open-and-close sequence of your garage door. For average residential use (3-4 cycles per day), high-quality extension springs can last 7-12 years under normal conditions. However, several factors can significantly impact spring lifespan, including door usage frequency, environmental conditions like humidity and temperature fluctuations, quality of initial installation, regularity of maintenance and lubrication, and the overall weight and balance of your garage door system. In Fort Myers’ coastal environment, factors like salt air exposure and high humidity can accelerate spring deterioration, making regular professional maintenance even more important for maximizing spring performance and longevity.
A: We strongly recommend replacing both extension springs simultaneously, even if only one has failed, for several important safety and performance reasons. Extension springs are manufactured as matched pairs with identical specifications, and when one spring breaks, the remaining spring has been subjected to the same stress and environmental conditions, making it likely to fail soon after. Operating your garage door with mismatched springs creates dangerous imbalances that can cause the door to bind, jump off tracks, or operate unpredictably. Additionally, replacing both springs together ensures optimal door balance, extends the overall system lifespan, and is more cost-effective than paying for separate service calls when the second spring inevitably fails. This approach also allows us to upgrade both springs to higher-quality options with better cycle ratings and corrosion resistance.
A: While extension spring systems require professional service for major repairs and replacements, there are several maintenance tasks homeowners can safely perform to extend spring life and identify potential problems early. Monthly visual inspections should include checking for rust, corrosion, or visible damage to springs and hardware, ensuring safety cables are intact and properly positioned, and listening for unusual noises during door operation. Every three months, you can apply appropriate garage door lubricant to spring coils, pulleys, and pivot points, but avoid over-lubrication which can attract dirt and debris. However, never attempt to adjust spring tension, remove or install springs, or work on any high-tension components—these tasks require professional expertise and specialized tools to perform safely.
