The Critical Role of Garage Door Springs
Garage door springs absorb and balance the weight of the door, making every lift and close effortless for homeowners. When your springs are worn or broken, the door becomes heavy, unsafe, and can stop working altogether—making timely repair and professional service essential.
Torsion vs. Extension Springs: Safety and Longevity
In Altadena homes, torsion springs (mounted above the door) are favored for their enhanced safety and longer lifespan, especially for double or heavy garage doors. Extension springs (mounted along the door tracks) are common on lighter, single-car doors and are more affordable up front, though they require more parts and regular maintenance. Both types should be inspected and serviced by professionals due to the high tension and risk of injury.
