Chapter 01

Why one broken spring stops the whole door

A garage door is heavy, and the springs carry that weight. The opener and your hand only guide the door along the tracks. Every trip up and down is one cycle on the spring, and the steel wears with each one until a torsion spring snaps, usually without any warning.

You will know it when it happens. There is a loud bang from the garage, the door lifts a few inches and stops, the opener motor hums without moving anything, or the door sits crooked in its tracks. A gap in the coil of the torsion spring above the opening is the giveaway.

Homeowners in Springdale, Rogers, Bentonville and Fayetteville call the office at (479) 238-2493 with exactly this story. If a car is parked inside, leave the door where it is and call before anyone tries to force it.

Why spring work is not a weekend project

Garage doors are heavy and under significant tension from springs and cables. A torsion spring is wound tight on its shaft with bars made for the job, and the cables run to drums that have to be set to match. One slip with a winding bar can send the bar through a wall or a hand.

That is why the technicians treat the spring, the cables and the drums as one repair. They replace the spring, check the cables for fraying, set the tension and test the balance so the door stays put when it is half open. Brett, a Residential Installer with over 30 years of industry experience, is one of the people who does this work.

Until someone arrives, do not operate the door. Keep people and pets clear of it and stay out from underneath.

Chapter 03

Call the office first, and say a spring has broken

Dan Freitas left a Google review that reads, "Service tech repaired my broken garage door spring the same day I contacted them." Same-day service is what a broken spring calls for, though it depends on the schedule and where the technicians are that day, so we do not promise a time.

The office is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, and closed Saturday and Sunday. If the spring lets go outside those hours, Integrity Overhead Door is available 24/7 for emergencies. After-hours calls incur an additional fee, and dispatch depends on a technician being in or around your area.
