FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Garage Door Repair Insights

Key guidance on solving snapped springs, off-track doors, and motor automation issues.

Garage door torsion springs operate under extreme mechanical tension and have an engineered cycle rating (usually 10,000 cycles). Metal fatigue, lack of lubrication, and temperature fluctuations eventually cause the spring coil to snap with a loud bang. We replace snapped springs with oil-tempered, high-cycle rated torsion springs calibrated to your exact door weight.
No. Operating a door with a broken spring or slack cable places enormous strain on the opener motor and can cause the heavy door to crash down or jump the track, risking severe injury or vehicle damage. Disengage the motor and do not force the door until inspected by a technician.
This usually indicates either a stripped drive gear in the motor carriage, a snapped torsion spring (making the door too heavy for the motor's safety clutch to lift), or an accidentally pulled manual release cord.
We service and repair all leading certified South African garage door automation brands and high-torque motor systems, carrying spare receiver boards, batteries, and drive belts.
