Still have a question?
Call while we are open, 7 AM–7 PM daily. A person answers, not a menu.
Call (909) 510-0843Which spring type is better?
Torsion is common on modern doors and gives smooth balance. The right choice is what matches your door design.
Can I convert extension to torsion?
Sometimes, with hardware changes. We assess that on site.
Why replace springs in pairs?
Matched wear keeps the door level. We recommend it when both sides are tired.
Are extension springs safer?
No. Both types are hazardous without proper tools and training.

I reached out at midnight because I had a spring break on my garage door. I went to bed and woke up to see Adam reached out within 10 minutes. I had multiple companies reach out by the time I woke up, but Adam called me and told me he could complete the job the same day and he beat the price that the other companies quoted me. Adam called when he was on his way. He was very respectful the whole time he was here and knocked out the job in about 30 minutes time. He is a true professional and if I ever have any issues with my garage door in the future, I will definitely reach back out
