Extention Springs
Extension springs are a common and affordable option found in many older Philadelphia homes. Installed on both sides of the garage door, these springs work by extending and contracting as the door opens and closes—unlike torsion springs, which twist. The system relies on cables and pulleys attached to the bottom brackets and horizontal tracks, helping to lift the weight of the door. While widely used, extension springs can be dangerous to handle without the right tools and training. That’s why homeowners in Philadelphia and nearby areas trust Overhead Garage Doors for safe, professional extension spring replacement and repair.


Extension Spring Replacement
Garage door extension springs help counterbalance the weight of the door, making it easier to open and reducing strain on your garage door opener. These springs are engineered to match the specific height and weight of your garage door, which is why proper sizing and tension are critical. While there may be multiple spring length options for a given door height, taller garage doors in Philadelphia homes or commercial spaces often require longer, heavier-duty springs. Installing the wrong spring can lead to operational damage or serious injury. That’s why property owners throughout Philadelphia and surrounding areas trust Overhead Garage Doors for expert extension spring replacement and tension calibration.
