About spring and cable replacement
Garage door springs carry the weight of the door and wear out after thousands of cycles, and a broken spring usually stops the door working and can be dangerous to handle. This is a job for a technician with the right tools, not a DIY fix. Replacing both springs at once is common since they wear together.
Quick answers
How much does garage door repair cost?+
Common garage door repairs run $150 to $400 depending on the part, with spring or cable replacement often at the higher end and simple adjustments at the lower end. A new opener is more. Ask for the fault to be diagnosed and quoted before any parts are replaced.
Why won't my garage door close?+
The most common causes are misaligned or dirty safety sensors, a broken spring or cable, an obstruction in the track, or an opener fault. Safety sensors are the usual culprit and are a quick fix. A technician can identify which it is rather than you replacing the wrong part.
Is a broken garage door spring dangerous to fix myself?+
Yes. Garage door springs are under high tension and can cause serious injury if they release suddenly, so spring replacement is a job for a technician with the correct tools and training. It is not a safe DIY repair. Both springs are often replaced together since they wear at a similar rate.
How long does a garage door opener last?+
A quality opener typically lasts 10 to 15 years, though remotes, gears and safety sensors may need attention sooner. If your opener is old, noisy and failing often, replacing it is usually better value than repeated repairs, and newer models add safety and smartphone features.
