Torsion Springs vs. Extension Springs in Machesney Park

The most common call we get in Machesney Park is a door that won't open after the opener runs. That's almost always a broken torsion spring. We stock both spring types on every truck and can usually complete the repair in a single visit.

Torsion Springs

Mounted horizontally above the door opening. Most common on modern residential doors in Machesney Park. When a torsion spring breaks you'll hear a loud bang and the door will be stuck.

  • Single or double spring systems
  • Rated 10,000–50,000 cycles
  • We always replace in pairs
  • High-cycle upgrade available

$200–$280 installed

Extension Springs

Run along the horizontal tracks on each side of the door. Common on older single-car garages in Machesney Park. A broken extension spring causes the door to hang unevenly or fall.

  • One spring per side (two total)
  • Safety cables included
  • Both sides replaced together
  • Same-day parts on truck

$75–$200 per spring installed

Do not attempt DIY spring replacement

Torsion springs store hundreds of pounds of torque. A spring that releases unexpectedly can cause severe injury or death. Always call a licensed technician — we're 15–25 minutes from Machesney Park.
