Spring Replacement in Murfreesboro

Professional spring replacement for Murfreesboro homes & businesses

Springs do the heavy lifting on a garage door, not the opener. Torsion springs mounted above the door wind up as it closes and release that energy to lift it. Each spring is rated for a number of cycles, and when it reaches the end of its life it snaps, usually with a bang that sounds like a gunshot in the garage.

We measure the wire size, inside diameter and length, weigh the door, and install springs that match it exactly. On two-spring doors we recommend replacing both, since the second spring is the same age and close behind. Every job ends with a balance test, new spring safety cables on extension systems, and an opener force check.

Murfreesboro Garage Door Pros provides spring replacement throughout Murfreesboro, TN and nearby Rutherford County, with the full price quoted before any work starts. As your garage door company in Murfreesboro, we test the whole door, not just the broken part. Questions first? Read our garage door FAQs.

Local expertise

Spring Replacement for Rutherford County homes

Many homes in Murfreesboro's newer subdivisions were built with a single torsion spring sized for the lightest door the builder offered. When owners add insulation, windows or a heavier replacement door, that spring wears out early. In older homes around the Square and near Stones River, we still find extension springs without safety cables, which we always correct.

We serve these communities from our shop at 935 S Church St:

Reviews

What Murfreesboro customers say

Heard a loud bang early Monday morning and the garage door wouldn't lift at all. Called them and they figured out the torsion spring had broken. They had the right spring on the truck and got us back up and running that afternoon. Very straightforward.

The opener would hum but the door wasn't moving. They checked the opener, gears and the door itself before recommending anything. Turned out to be a stripped gear. Repair was done in one visit and the price was exactly what they quoted.

Our door came off the track while my wife was closing it. They got here later that day and found one of the tracks had been bent. They straightened things out, replaced a damaged roller and tested the door several times before leaving.

Had a section of our garage door damaged and wasn't looking forward to replacing the entire thing. They were able to match the existing panel pretty closely and replace just the damaged section. You can barely tell which one is new.

Our garage door had gotten extremely loud over the past few months. They did a full inspection, lubricated the moving parts and replaced several worn rollers. It opens much smoother now. The inspection was more thorough than I expected.

We were having trouble with the garage door opener remote and the door would sometimes stop halfway. They checked the opener, sensors and balance of the door and found more than one issue. Everything was fixed during the same appointment. Really good communication throughout.

Our garage door had started shaking badly when it opened and closed. I expected to be told we needed a whole new door, but the technician found worn rollers and a couple of loose parts. Everything was adjusted and replaced where needed. Much quieter now.

One of our garage door cables snapped and left the door crooked. I didn't want to try moving it myself. They came out, replaced the cables and drums, then checked the balance of the entire door. Good service and no unnecessary upselling.

We needed a new opener because our old one was becoming unreliable. They installed a belt-drive unit with Wi-Fi and battery backup and took the time to show me how to use the app. The new opener is so much quieter than the old one.

Garage door started reversing every time it got close to the floor. The technician checked the sensors and the opener settings instead of immediately replacing the opener. A sensor adjustment fixed it. Appreciate the honest diagnosis.

The bottom seal on our garage door was worn out and we were getting leaves and water underneath it. They replaced the seal and checked the sides of the door while they were there. Small job, but they treated it like it mattered.

We recently replaced our old garage door and opener. From measuring the opening to choosing the style and getting everything installed, the process was easy. We went with an insulated raised-panel door and couldn't be happier with how it looks.

Can I replace a garage door spring myself?

We don't recommend it. Torsion springs hold enough energy to cause serious injury, and the job needs winding bars, the right spring size and a balance test.

Should I replace both springs?

If your door has two springs, yes. They were installed together, so the second one usually fails soon after the first.

How long do new springs last?

Standard springs are rated for about 10,000 cycles. High-cycle springs rated for 25,000 cycles or more last much longer on busy doors.

Can the opener lift the door with a broken spring?

It shouldn't try. Running the opener with a broken spring can strip its gear or bend the top section. Disconnect the opener and book a repair.

Who provides spring replacement in Murfreesboro, TN?

Murfreesboro Garage Door Pros provides spring replacement in Murfreesboro, TN and nearby Rutherford County communities. We are a local garage door company with upfront pricing. Book online and we'll call or text to confirm a time.

How much does garage door spring replacement cost?

Price depends on spring size, whether you have one or two springs, and whether you choose standard or high-cycle springs. You get the full price before we start.

What is the difference between torsion and extension springs?

Torsion springs sit on a bar above the door and twist to lift it. Extension springs run along the horizontal tracks and stretch. Torsion systems are smoother and safer.

Can you convert extension springs to torsion springs?

Yes, on most doors with enough headroom. It's a common upgrade for smoother, quieter operation.

How do I know which spring size I need?

We measure wire size, inside diameter and length, and weigh the door. Guessing leads to a door that won't stay balanced.

Why did my spring break in cold weather?

Steel springs are more brittle when it's cold, so a worn spring often lets go on the first chilly morning of the season.
