## Understanding Garage Door Springs

## SECTIONAL DOOR SPRINGS

Sectional garage door springs carry most of the weight every time you open or close your door. Over time, this constant strain causes them to wear out, which is why sectional garage door spring replacement in Brisbane is such a common repair. On average, these springs last 10–15 years. When one breaks, the rest are usually close behind – so replacing them together keeps your door balanced, protects your opener, and helps you avoid costly breakdowns.

## ROLLER DOOR SPRINGS

Roller garage door springs are built to last, usually 20–25 years with normal use. These torsion spring garage door systems sit hidden inside the door drum, which makes them difficult and unsafe to replace yourself. If you notice a broken roller garage door spring, it’s often a sign the entire door may need replacement to ensure safety and reliable operation. That’s why professional roller garage door spring repair in Brisbane is essential.

## TILT DOOR SPRINGS

Tilt door springs support the full weight of your door, making it possible to lift and lower safely. With regular use, they last about 15–20 years. Once one spring breaks, the others are usually not far behind. Replacing tilt door springs together keeps your door balanced, reduces strain on the opener, and helps prevent unexpected safety risks or expensive repairs down the track.

## *SAFETY WARNING*

Never attempt garage door spring replacement in Brisbane yourself. Springs are under extreme tension
and can cause serious injury or property damage if handled incorrectly. DIY repairs without the right tools
or training often lead to dangerous accidents and expensive mistakes.

For your safety, always hire a qualified technician with the correct tools and protective gear. And if your
springs are broken, avoid operating the door – manual or automatic use can cause further damage to the
door, opener, and your budget.

## ANSWERS TO SOME COMMON FAQ'S

What happens if I use my garage door with a broken spring?

Operating your garage door with a broken garage door spring can cause significant damage to the automatic opener and other parts of the system.

It also poses a serious safety risk, as the door won’t hold itself open so it could drop suddenly or become stuck. To avoid extra repair costs and prevent accidents, stop using the door immediately and call a professional.

If you suspect you have a spring issue, call +61 7 3063 0727 or submit an Online Enquiry – we’ll get it sorted safely and efficiently.

Are all garage door springs the same?

No. Not only do different door types require different springs but springs come in different widths, lengths and coil thicknesses to suit your individual doors size and weight.

Choosing the correct spring is essential for balancing and safe operation. Fitting the wrong springs will result in automatic opener and door damage.

How do I know if my garage door springs need replacing?

Common signs that they need replacing include a door that feels heavier than usual, won’t stay open, or made a loud bang/snapping sound.

You may also notice gaps in the springs or uneven door movement. Ignoring these signs can lead to further damage and safety risks. Check out the images above for examples of broken springs.

Can I replace garage door springs myself?

Garage door springs are wound under high tension, making DIY replacement extremely dangerous without the right tools and experience.

Attempting repairs without proper knowledge can result in serious injury or damage to your door.

Why should all springs be replaced at once?

Garage door springs work together, sharing the load equally. When one spring breaks, the others are usually close to failure due to equal wear.

Replacing all springs at once ensures the door stays balanced, reduces stress on the opener, and prevents further breakdowns, saving you time and additional repair costs.

How long do garage door springs last?

The lifespan of your garage door springs depends on the door type and usage:

- Sectional door springs: 10–15 years

- Tilt door springs: 25–30 years

- Roller door springs: 20–25 years

Frequent daily use can shorten these timelines. Regular servicing can extend spring life by identifying wear early and preventing unexpected breakdowns.
