Broken Garage Door Spring? We Can Fix It Today.

A broken garage door spring makes the door too heavy to lift and unsafe to operate. At Aura Garage Door Repair Houston, we provide fast and reliable garage door spring repair for residential homes across Houston and the surrounding areas. Our technicians replace torsion springs and extension springs, calibrate the system for proper balance, and ensure the door opens smoothly and safely. ⚙️

Common Garage Door Spring Problems

Garage door will not open at all
This is the most obvious sign of a broken torsion or extension spring. The opener cannot lift the weight of the door without working springs.

Door opens a few inches and stops
Many openers have safety features that prevent lifting when springs are broken. This protects the motor from burning out.

Loud bang from the garage
A spring snapping can sound like a gunshot. This indicates an immediate need for replacement.

Door is crooked or uneven when lifting
This can happen if one spring breaks or loses tension. Uneven lifting strains the tracks, cables, and opener.

Springs look stretched or separated
Visible gaps in a torsion spring coil indicate breakage. Extension springs may look stretched or elongated.

Opener is struggling or vibrating heavily
When springs fail, the opener takes on the full weight of the door. This can cause shaking, slow movement, or motor overheating. For opener issues, visit the opener repair page.

Frayed or loose cables
Cables unwind incorrectly when springs break. This can cause the door to tilt, jam, or get stuck.

Door falls quickly when closing
Weak or broken springs cannot support door weight, creating a safety hazard.

High-cycle spring fatigue
Springs weaken over time due to daily use. We replace worn springs with the correct size and tension for your specific door.

Difficulty lifting the door manually
A properly functioning spring allows you to lift the door with one hand. If it feels extremely heavy, the spring system is failing.

Reviews

I called Aura Garage Door Repair Houston when my spring snapped in the middle of the evening. They showed up the same day in West University and had the door working again in under an hour. The technician explained everything clearly and the price was fair. I could not ask for better service.

Our garage door opener in Katy stopped responding and we could not get the door to move at all. Aura Garage Door Repair Houston came out the next morning, replaced the opener, programmed our remotes, and made sure everything was working smoothly before leaving. Honest, fast, and very clean work.

A car bumped into our garage door and bent two of the panels. I was worried we would need a whole new door, but Aura Garage Door Repair Houston matched the panels and replaced only what was needed. The door looks brand new again. I really appreciate the honesty and the quality of the repair.

Garage Door Spring Repair FAQ

How do I know if my garage door spring is broken?

If your garage door will not open, feels extremely heavy, or you see a visible gap in the torsion spring, the spring is broken. You may also hear a loud bang when the spring snaps. Never try to lift the door manually when the spring is broken. For safe repair, call us at (713) 581-6335.

Can I open my garage door with a broken spring?

No. Opening a door with a broken spring is unsafe and can damage the opener. The opener is not designed to lift the full weight of the door. If you attempted this and the opener is now unresponsive, visit our opener repair page.

How long do garage door springs last?

Most springs last between 7 and 15 years depending on daily use, spring quality, and door weight. High-cycle springs last longer. If your springs are older or showing signs of fatigue, replacement is recommended before they break. ⚙️

Should both springs be replaced at the same time?

Yes. If your system uses two springs, they work together and wear out at the same rate. Replacing only one spring causes imbalance and additional stress on the door and opener. We always recommend replacing both for safety and performance.

Do you offer same-day spring repair in Houston?

Yes. We offer same-day spring replacement throughout Houston and surrounding areas. Our technicians arrive with the correct spring sizes for most doors and complete the repair on the first visit. To schedule service, call us at (713) 581-6335. 📞
