With a whirring sound and a click, the garage door swings open on its track, coming to rest with a clanking noise at the top. The area is dark, but your headlights break through the darkness and illuminate an empty space — your car is still in the driveway. It was so nice of you to come home early! You jog up to the garage door opener and reach for it, stopping dead in your tracks when you realize it's not there.
Sometimes a garage door doesn't open or close properly because the springs, tension wheels, or even electric opener don't work. If you are having trouble with your garage door, it's important that you get in touch with a professional to address the issue as soon as possible.
There are several common culprits for problems like these including an improperly wound up spring section and frayed cables. Those who have had these issues know how frustrating it can be to repair their own garage door when things break down unexpectedly.
Garage door springs are worn down over time and need to be replaced to function properly again. Below is a quick overview on how garage door springs work and how you can replace them yourself. Without having the springs in your garage, it is impossible for your garage door to stay shut when it's closed. This can pose dangers for both the people inside of your home and for any vehicles that may be parked within the garage area.
