Do Not Try to Repair Springs Yourself

Garage door springs are under extreme tension and can cause severe injury if handled incorrectly. Please call a professional.

Torsion vs. Extension Springs

Torsion Springs

Mounted horizontally above the door. Stronger, longer-lasting, and safer. Common on modern and heavier doors.

We stock a full range of torsion springs for same-day replacement across Michiana.

Extension Springs

Run along the sides of the door, parallel to the horizontal tracks. Older and less common.

We replace extension springs and can often upgrade you to torsion springs at the same time.
