Broken Garage Door Spring Replacement in South Orange County
A broken spring is the most common reason a garage door suddenly won’t open. Statesman Garage Door replaces torsion and extension springs for homeowners throughout South Orange County, with same-day service available and free estimates.
Broken Spring Replacement You Can Trust
Your garage door springs do the heavy lifting. They balance the weight of the door so you, or your opener, can raise it with very little effort. When a spring breaks, the door suddenly feels like it weighs hundreds of pounds, and the opener may strain or stop working.
Please don’t try to lift the door or replace the spring yourself. Garage door springs are under high tension and can cause serious injury. Leave the door where it is and call us at (714) 865-2606.

Broken Spring Replacement Questions
Can I replace a garage door spring myself?
We don’t recommend it. Springs are under high tension, and a slip can cause serious injury or damage. A trained technician has the right tools and parts to do it safely.
What is the difference between torsion and extension springs?
Torsion springs sit on a bar above the door and twist to lift it. Extension springs run along the tracks on each side and stretch. We service both.
Can I still use my opener with a broken spring?
No. Running the opener with a broken spring can damage the opener and leave the door unsafe. Leave it closed and call us.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes. Call or text (714) 865-2606 and we’ll give you a free estimate and the exact price before any work begins.
