Garage Door Garage Door Spring Replacement Evergreen, CO

We tailor garage door spring replacement to Evergreen's housing and climate. With mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes and a high-elevation mountain climate — cold, snowy winters, dry, mild summers, and large elevation-driven temperature swings, the durable choice is rarely the cheapest part — and we'll explain why.

Our Evergreen recommendations are climate-driven. With a high-elevation mountain climate — cold, snowy winters, dry, mild summers, and large elevation-driven temperature swings, your door contends with heavy snow load and ice on doors and tracks, warm, dry summers that fatigue springs, and freeze-thaw that cracks seals and loosens hardware — which is why galvanized hardware and quality weatherstripping pay off here.

There's a familiar rhythm to Evergreen breakdowns — cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter, pine-needle debris fouling rollers and tracks, debris-blinded safety sensors, and rusted hardware from repeated snowmelt. We've fixed each a thousand times across Jefferson County.

Spring replacement is the most common high-stakes garage door repair and the one we strongly recommend professional service for. The torque stored in a wound torsion spring can release a winding bar at velocities that send it across a garage; the cost of a professional spring replacement is a fraction of the cost of an ER visit. We replace torsion and extension springs in a single visit, with springs sized by measured door weight rather than guessed by appearance.

The default upgrade we offer is from builder-grade 10,000-cycle springs to 30,000-cycle high-cycle springs. The price difference is small — usually $40-$60 — and the lifespan triples, which means a typical homeowner replaces springs once during the door's life instead of three times. We back 30,000-cycle springs with a lifetime warranty for the original homeowner.

Every spring replacement includes a balance test, opener force/travel calibration to match the new spring tension, a cable and drum inspection (cables wear at a similar rate to springs and often need replacement at the same time), and a quick photo-eye verification. The complete service is one flat-rate visit with no hidden add-ons.

Signs you need garage door spring replacement

• Visible coil gap or break

  A snapped torsion spring shows a clear 2-inch gap between coils where the spring separated. Extension springs that have failed often hang slack.

• Door won't open with the remote

  Modern openers refuse to lift a door without spring assistance — the motor would burn out. Spring failure is the most common cause of 'opener won't lift the door'.

• Door heavy as concrete to lift manually

  With the opener disconnected, a balanced door should lift with one hand. If you need both hands and full effort, the spring tension is wrong.

• Door drops fast and slams

  When you let the door go partway up and it crashes down, the counter-weight system has failed. Stop using the door — manual operation is unsafe.

• Door 7+ years old, never replaced springs

  Builder springs hit 10,000-cycle end-of-life around 7–10 years of typical use. Replacing proactively avoids the crack-of-dawn emergency call.

Common causes & what we fix

• Cycle fatigue

  Springs are rated by cycle count, not years. The clock starts at install and runs every time the door cycles. End-of-life is a predictable event.

• Under-sizing at original install

  Builders frequently spec the cheapest spring that meets minimum requirements. Under-sized springs run at higher stress per cycle and fail earlier than rated.

• Coastal corrosion

  Salt-air pitting weakens spring wire from the outside in. Uncoated springs in coastal zones can fail at 60% of their cycle rating.

• Single-spring on a heavy door

  Builders sometimes use a single torsion spring on doors that should run dual-spring. Single-spring on a heavy door fails roughly twice as fast.

• Lack of lubrication

  Torsion springs need a light annual lubrication to prevent inter-coil friction wear. Dry springs fail noticeably faster than maintained ones.
