No matter the type of torsion spring garage door (roller door, sectional door or tilt door) we’re here to deliver top-quality spring replacements with the friendly, reliable service you can count on.
Sectional garage door springs replacement in Brisbane is inevitable because they carry most of the door’s weight, making it easy to lift. Each time you open or close the door, the springs stretch and contract, gradually wearing out.
Typically, they last 10–15 years with normal use. Since all springs share the load evenly, when one breaks, the others are likely close to failing too. Replacing all springs together ensures the door stays balanced, reduces wear on the opener, and prevents sudden breakdowns that can cause safety risks or costly repairs.
A new or replacement roller garage door spring repair in Brisbane typically lasts 20–25 years with normal home use, though heavy usage can shorten their lifespan.
Unlike other types of door springs, torsion spring garage door systems for roller doors are hidden inside the drum during manufacturing, making them difficult and unsafe to replace. If you spot a broken spring by looking into the ends of your roller door, it’s often a sign that the entire door needs replacement. This ensures safe operation and prevents further issues with the door’s structure and performance.
Tilt door springs play a key role in balancing the entire weight of the door, making it easy and safe to lift. Each time the door opens or closes, the springs extend and contract, which causes gradual wear over time.
They typically last 25–30 years with normal home use, though heavy usage can reduce their lifespan. Since all springs work together, when one breaks, the others are usually close to failing too. Replacing all springs at once ensures the door remains balanced, reduces strain on the opener, and prevents unexpected breakdowns that could lead to safety risks or costly repairs.
Never attempt to perform garage door springs replacement in Brisbane yourself. Springs are under high tension and can cause serious injury or property damage if handled incorrectly. DIY repairs without proper tools and training can lead to costly mistakes and dangerous accidents.
For your safety, always hire a qualified professional with the right tools, materials, and protective gear. Do not operate the door manually or automatically if springs are broken, as this can cause further damage to the door and/or automatic system and additional expenses.

Operating your garage door with a broken garage door spring can cause significant damage to the automatic opener and other parts of the system.
It also poses a serious safety risk, as the door won’t hold itself open so it could drop suddenly or become stuck. To avoid extra repair costs and prevent accidents, stop using the door immediately and call a professional.
