Inspect the system
Daniel checks the spring setup, door balance and related hardware—not only the visibly broken piece.
Garage door spring service
When a broken spring stops the whole door.
A broken spring can leave the door too heavy to lift and trap a vehicle inside. Alpine checks the full spring system and explains what needs to happen next.
Common signs
A loud bang, a visible gap or a door that suddenly feels far too heavy.
Stop using the opener if the door is unusually heavy or a spring is broken. Garage door springs are under high tension and should be adjusted or replaced by a trained technician.
Match the door
The correct spring depends on the door’s size, weight and configuration.
Restore safe operation
The finished door should be balanced and work as a system before normal opener use resumes.

“They educated us on the springs and why you should have professionals replace them. They were professional and had great pricing.”Judy L. • Google review
