Q: What would make my garage door springs break?

A: Broken garage door springs are a common repair and are caused by metal fatigue. A spring cycles the door hundreds of times over the course of a year and eventually it wears out. On average, a garage door spring will last around 10,000 door cycles. Replacing a spring is extremely dangerous due to the high tension and should always be done by a trained professional garage door technician.
