05 Questions

How long does a garage door spring last?

A standard spring carries a 10,000-cycle rating, and one open plus one close is a cycle. At four cycles a day that is about seven years. When one breaks, Chen Garage Door replaces it in San Rafael and across Marin from $225, installed and balanced, with a 3-year written warranty.

Should I replace both springs?

If the door has two, yes. Both were installed together and have worked the same cycles, so the second one usually follows within months. The pair starts from $365, against from $225 for each spring done on its own.

Can I open the door with a broken spring?

Leave it closed if you can. The opener can't lift the door's full weight and can strip its gear trying. If a car you need is inside, call (510) 509-9998 any hour and we'll open the door safely first.
