Broken Garage Door Spring Replacement — Roslyn, NY

Torsion Springs in Roslyn, NY Homes

Torsion springs are mounted above the garage door opening and do the heavy lifting every time the door moves. When a torsion spring breaks, you'll hear a loud bang — then the door becomes dangerously heavy. Do not attempt to use or manually open the door.

Roslyn Heights and East Hills have a mix of larger colonial and split-level homes with heavier custom doors, which place extra demand on springs. Choosing the correct spring based on door weight is essential — undersized springs fail early and can damage the opener.

Standard torsion springs are rated for around 10,000 cycles. We offer High-Cycle Springs at 25,000 cycles and Ultra-Cycle Springs at 50,000 cycles for homeowners who want long-term reliability without frequent replacement.

Extension Springs

Older Roslyn homes — particularly in the historic village area with low ceiling heights — may use extension springs rather than torsion springs. Extension springs require spring safety cables, which are mandatory for safe operation and prevent injury if a spring snaps. We always install safety cables with every extension spring replacement.
