Garage Door Springs

Your garage doors springs work exceptionally hard to keep the door safe to use and correctly aligned at all times. They are typically installed in pairs on opposite ends of the door and work together to perform their crucial tasks in this regard. Yet the nature of their job, and the conditions under which they operate can make the task of keeping them in good health a challenging one. So when you need assistance with your springs, it is best to call for the help of a qualified technician from your local garage door company.

Why your springs may need repairs

As strong as they are, garage door springs can take damage from a range of sources. Wear and tear is always a possibility thanks to the stress of a spring’s job. They work under immense pressure to store torque for leveraging the weight of your door even when it is not in operation. This stress may eventually lead to their weakening or breakdown when cracks and distortions start to show. When this happens, you should ensure that you have two perfectly functioning springs by having the troublesome one, or both of them replaced.

Rust and galvanic corrosion

The onset of rust, which is caused by a consistently damp or coastal climate will spread quickly throughout the spring and will weaken its structure in a short amount of time. When this happens, they should always be replaced before they fail. Having an oil tempered spring installed is also a good way to ensure that this doesn’t happen. Galvanic corrosion which is caused by contact with electrified metals will have a similar effect on your springs, and so should always be looked out for.
