What’s the difference between a torsion spring and a regular spring?
Torsion springs are mounted horizontally above your garage door. They twist and release tension to lift the door. They’re more durable, reliable, and smoother than old-school extension springs that stretch along the sides.
Can I replace a torsion spring myself?
We’re gonna be blunt: don’t even think about it. Torsion springs are tightly wound under extreme pressure—one wrong move could lead to serious injury. Leave this job to trained pros with the right tools and experience.
How long do torsion springs last?
Most torsion springs are rated for 10,000 cycles (that’s one open and one close). For a typical household, that’s around 7 to 10 years. High-cycle springs can last longer if you’re opening and closing the garage multiple times a day.
What are the signs of a broken torsion spring?
The biggest red flag is a loud bang in your garage, like something exploded. After that, the door may not open at all, or it might lift unevenly or slowly, with the opener straining. You might also spot a visible break in the coil.
Should I replace both springs at the same time?
Yes. If one’s gone, the other is likely worn down too. Replacing both ensures even tension and keeps your door from going lopsided. Plus, it saves you from calling us again in a few weeks when the second one breaks.
Do you offer emergency torsion spring repair?
Absolutely. We’re available 24/7 for emergency service anywhere in Colorado. Call us any time, and we’ll get your door back in action—fast.

Signs Your Torsion Spring Needs Repair
Loud “gunshot” noise from the garage
Door won’t open, or opens a few inches then stops
Door is uneven or shakes during movement
You suddenly need major muscle to lift it manually
Visible gap in the spring coil
If you notice any of these, stop using the door and call Apex immediately. Torsion springs are under intense tension and attempting a DIY repair is risky business.
What is a Torsion Spring Anyway?
It’s the tightly wound coil mounted above your garage door that stores mechanical energy. Every time you open the door, that spring unwinds in a controlled release of power. It’s what keeps the door balanced and prevents a 200-pound slab of metal from crushing your car.
And when it fails? You’ll hear it—a loud snap—followed by your door becoming a stubborn, stuck, or dangerously lopsided mess.
