Need garage door spring repair in Boston? Broken torsion or extension springs are one of the most common garage door problems in Massachusetts homes. When a spring breaks, your door becomes inoperable—and dangerous to use. AB Garage Door provides same-day spring replacement service across Greater Boston, with high-quality parts that last. We stand behind our work with industry-leading warranties.
Watch for these warning signs that indicate it's time to call for professional service.
A sudden loud bang typically means a spring has snapped. The door may still open with the opener, but it's unsafe to use.
If your door suddenly feels much heavier than normal, the springs are likely broken or failing and not providing proper counterbalance.
One side rising faster than the other indicates a spring imbalance—one spring may be broken while the other is intact.
Torsion springs develop a visible gap when broken. Extension springs may hang loosely or show separation.
If your door drifts down when you try to leave it open, the springs can't hold the weight—a sign of failure or wear.
Uneven, jerky movement when opening/closing indicates springs are worn and providing inconsistent tension.
Oil-tempered springs rated for 10,000 cycles. The most common residential option.
Rust-resistant springs ideal for humid New England climate.
Premium springs rated for 25,000-50,000 cycles for high-use doors.
Springs mounted on either side of the door, common on older homes.
What to Expect
