Some Things To Think About

Does your garage door stop when it is going up? Did you hear a loud bang, similar to a gun shot? If so, you might just have a broken garage door spring.

What do you do if your garage door springs break?
More often than not, springs break after the door has closed. In more dangerous instances, a spring can suddenly snap as the door is coming down, causing it to drop quickly. Your garage door is heavy and can be hazardous if not handled correctly. In these cases, call American Overhead Door as soon as possible and keep a safe distance until your door is repaired.

How can you know what kind of garage door torsion springs you’ll need?
The type of springs you need depend on the type of garage door you have – details like the size and weight of your door would play a factor. Our certified technicians can easily determine which springs are best for your garage door and will install them to get your door working again.

Broken Torsion Springs
Torsion springs are located above the garage door and they are what lift the actual weight of the garage door. Most doors weigh between 150 to 250 pounds and without working springs, the garage door opener cannot lift the door. Attempting to use a garage door opener to lift a garage door with a broken spring can cause numerous parts on the opener to break. We recommend that you call a professional immediately.

Why You Should Hire a Professional to Repair or Install Your Garage Door

Installing, repairing, or servicing your garage door without the proper knowledge, tools, and equipment can be dangerous and you may not even be able to complete the task. Regardless of your needs, hiring a professional garage door contractor can be extremely beneficial in a variety of ways, including:

Increased Safety
When it comes to installing or servicing a garage door, there are many dangers and safety concerns involved. Not only is the spring compression and door size dangerous, but working with electricity requires a skilled hand. A professional technician has the knowledge and experience necessary for a safe and effective job.

Proper Tools & Parts
It goes without saying that a professional garage door contractor will show up with all of the right tools and parts for the job. If you're replacing any mechanical parts, a professional will ensure the new parts can handle the weight and functionality of your garage door. By using all the best tools and parts for the particular job at hand, a professional can ensure your door is installed or repaired correctly and functionality is restored.

Experience & Efficiency
Though it may seem like garage door installation or repair will be a breeze, often times that is not the case. A professional team has the experience needed to expertly and efficiently complete the task at hand. Before you know it, your door will be attractive and functioning properly!

Warranties Available
Most garage doors and their machinery come with warranties. However, there is a catch - your garage door must be installed by a professional in order for the warranty to be valid. If you attempt to do the job yourself, you may void the warranty and cost yourself money.
