A snapped spring is the most common garage door failure, and it leaves your door too heavy to lift safely. Dunwoody Garage Door Pros handles garage door spring repair in Dunwoody the same day, from Dunwoody Village to Perimeter Center. Your technician arrives with torsion and extension springs on the truck, replaces them in a matched pair, and gives you a written price before any work starts.
Call before mid-afternoon and you can usually get your spring replaced at your Dunwoody home the same day.
Common torsion and extension springs ride on every truck, so most spring jobs finish in one visit.
You approve a written, itemized quote before work starts. No surprise charges and no call-center markup.
We replace both springs together so they wear evenly, which prevents a second failure weeks later.
Call (470) 558-1427 and tell us the door will not lift or you heard a loud bang. We book a same-day visit when one is open.
Your technician confirms the spring type and size, checks the cables and drums, and hands you an itemized quote before any work begins.
We install new springs of the correct wire size and length, in a matched pair, so both sides carry the load evenly.
We wind the springs to the right tension, cycle-test the door, and balance it so the opener is not left straining.
Your garage door springs do the real lifting, not the opener, so when a spring breaks the door becomes a heavy, unbalanced slab that the opener cannot raise. We replace both torsion springs, the type mounted on a tube above the door, and extension springs, the long springs that run along the tracks on older or lighter doors.
If your current springs keep failing, we can move you up to high-cycle springs rated for 20,000 cycles, which last far longer on a busy family door. We also replace the lift cables, drums, and center bearing while the door is apart, because those parts wear on the same schedule as the springs.
Wayne Dalton doors with an enclosed TorqueMaster system get the correct proprietary parts, not a generic substitute. Every job ends with a full balance and safety check before we leave.
A broken spring stores dangerous tension, so this is not a job to guess at or rush. You get a technician who sizes the spring correctly and balances the door, so the repair lasts and the opener is not left straining.
You call a real local line, not a national call center. Same-day spring appointments open across Dunwoody most days.
Background-checked, IDEA-certified technicians who size and wind springs correctly the first time.
We stock standard and high-cycle springs, so you can choose a longer-lasting spring for a busy door.
Locally operated in Dunwoody, from Dunwoody Village to Perimeter Center. Not a franchise call center.
Nearly every spring call in Dunwoody is one of these, and each is a same-day fix with springs on the truck.
Problem: You heard a loud bang from the garage, and now the door will not open at all or the opener strains and stops. A torsion spring almost always breaks with that bang.
Our Solution: We replace both torsion springs in a matched pair, wind them to the correct tension, then cycle-test and balance the door before we leave.
Problem: The door still moves, but it feels far too heavy to raise, or it slams down instead of holding. The spring has lost tension and is close to failing outright.
Our Solution: We measure the door and install correctly sized springs so the door counterbalances again and lifts with light effort.
Problem: You can see a two-inch gap in the coil of the spring above the door. That gap is a spring that has already snapped, even if the door still moves for now.
Our Solution: We replace the spring before it strands your car inside, and check the second spring and the cables while we are there.
Spring pricing depends on the spring type and size and whether the cables need replacing at the same time. These are the typical ranges in the Dunwoody area.
Your exact price is confirmed in writing on-site before any work begins, so there is no guessing.
Torsion springs mount on a metal tube above the door and do the lifting by twisting. Most Dunwoody homes have them, and they last longer and run more smoothly.
Extension springs are the long springs that stretch along the horizontal tracks on either side, usually on older or lighter doors. We replace torsion springs in matched pairs so both wind down together, and a cycle rating tells you the lifespan: a standard spring is rated near 10,000 open-and-close cycles, while a high-cycle spring is rated near 20,000, which is worth it on a door your family uses many times a day.
Both springs have the same age and cycle count, so when one breaks the other is close behind. Replacing them as a matched pair keeps the door balanced and saves you a second service call within weeks. It is the standard we recommend on every torsion door.
A single torsion spring runs about $150 to $350 installed, and a matched pair about $250 to $450. Extension springs cost less. Your exact price is confirmed in writing on-site before any work begins, so there are no surprises.
No. A torsion spring holds hundreds of pounds of tension, and a slip during winding causes serious injury. It needs the right tools, the right size spring, and training. Leave the door down and call a technician to handle it safely.
A standard spring is rated near 10,000 open-and-close cycles, roughly seven to twelve years for an average home. A busy family door reaches that sooner, which is why we offer high-cycle springs rated near 20,000 cycles.
Yes. The work is backed by a workmanship warranty, and the springs we install carry their manufacturer warranty. Your technician confirms the coverage on your itemized quote before starting the job.
