Expert Garage Door Spring Replacement Services in Upland

Garage door springs are the most critical component of your garage door system, responsible for counterbalancing the weight of the door. When springs break or wear out, they can create dangerous situations and prevent your door from operating properly. At Overhead Garage Door & Gate Repair In Upland, we specialize in safe, professional spring replacement for all types of garage doors.

Our certified technicians have extensive experience working with both torsion and extension spring systems. We understand the extreme tension these components are under and follow strict safety protocols to ensure every spring replacement is completed safely and correctly.

Types of Garage Door Springs We Replace

Torsion Springs

Mounted above the door opening, torsion springs provide smooth, balanced operation. We replace both single and double spring systems.

Extension Springs

Located on either side of the door, extension springs stretch and contract. We replace with high-quality, long-lasting alternatives.

Spring Balancing

Proper spring tension is crucial for smooth operation. We ensure perfect balance for optimal performance.

Dual Spring Systems

For heavy doors, we install dual spring systems that provide better balance and longer life expectancy.

Custom Sizing

We measure and order springs specifically sized for your door to ensure perfect fit and operation.

Safety Testing

After replacement, we thoroughly test the door to ensure safe, smooth operation and proper balance.
