1. Why Garage Door Springs Break. Check 4
Primary Reasons

2. The torsion spring of your garage door literally does all the heavy
lifting. As a garage door owner you should have adequate knowledge
on how Torsion spring work and what make them to malfunction. Let’s
find out some of the main reasons why torsion springs break:
Wear & tear:
Simple wear & tear are probably the biggest reason why torsion springs
malfunction. Most appropriately fitted torsion springs are rated for
nearly 10,000 cycles—one cycle being the overhead door going up &
coming down to close. That mayn’t look like a lot, but take into account
that you go through a minimum of 2 cycles a day just getting the vehicle
out & back into the garage. Those daily cycles can add up very quickly
than you think and you could easily burn 10,000 cycles in one year.

3. Rust:
Unfortunately, ruse can cause havoc on the torsion sprig of your garage door. As rust
builds on your garage door springs, friction increases, material weakens, and breaks
become inevitable. To add salt to the wound, cold weather does the same. However,
the great thing is, taking some very simple precautionary steps will extend its life a
little bit and hardly cost you any time or effort. Al you need is a spray of WD-40 along
the spring coils about every 2–3 months. It prevents corrosion from accumulating on
the spring, which prompts corrosive damage & can eventually ruin the spring over
time.
Improper maintenance:
Although rust, wear& tear, and weakening are unavoidable, inappropriate upkeep
only snowball these unconstructive effects. And what’s the typical reason for
inappropriate upkeep? Laziness probably! With some simple maintenance done by a
professional garage door service you can considerably improve the lifespan of your
torsion spring and eventually reduce the possibilities of severe injury and expensive
replacement.

4. Ill-advised cost saving:
To operate at their best, garage door need two torsion springs on both
side of the door. However, some builders to cut cost use one spring
across the whole door. Though it is okay for smaller or light doors, but
heavy garage doors will perform better with 2 separate springs
sharing the load. Single springs have a considerably shortened lifetime
which can cause severe injury if not repaired or replaced on time.
