The Most Common Garage Door Repair – Garage Door Spring Replacement
A broken garage door spring can stop your door from opening, create loud snapping noises, or put strain on your opener. When a spring fails, it becomes a safety risk and should only be handled by a trained professional. Merchantville Overhead Door provides fast and reliable garage door spring replacement in Camden, NJ so you can restore safe, smooth movement for your home or business.
Professional Garage Door Spring Replacement for Camden Homeowners
When your garage door spring breaks, you may notice the door feels unusually heavy, the opener struggles to lift it, or the door will not open at all. Spring failures often happen without warning and require immediate attention. Because springs hold large amounts of tension, they should never be adjusted or replaced by homeowners. With decades of experience serving Camden and South Jersey since 1936, we provide safe and professional spring replacement that protects both your home and your family.

Complete Garage Door Spring Replacement Services
Torsion Spring Replacement
Torsion springs control the lifting power of your garage door and often break due to age or wear. We replace them with high-quality, properly rated springs that match your door’s size and weight for smooth and dependable operation.
Extension Spring Replacement
Extension springs stretch and contract along the tracks, and when they weaken, the door may lift unevenly or stop working. We install new extension springs that restore balanced and safe movement.
Spring Balancing and Alignment
After replacing your springs, our technicians balance the door so it operates smoothly without strain. Proper balance protects your opener and helps extend the lifespan of other hardware.
Dual Spring Conversions
If your door uses a single spring, converting to a two-spring system can improve safety and durability. This setup distributes tension more evenly and reduces stress on the system.
Safety Inspection After Replacement
We inspect all related components such as cables, rollers, brackets, and bearings to confirm the system is safe. The opener is tested along with manual operation to ensure everything works correctly.

Frequently Asked Questions

You may hear a loud pop, notice the door will not open, or see the opener struggling to lift it.
Is it dangerous to replace springs myself
Yes. Springs hold heavy tension and should only be replaced by trained technicians.
How long do garage door springs last
Most springs last between seven and ten years depending on usage.
What is the cost of garage door spring replacement
Pricing depends on the type of spring and the style of door. We provide clear estimates before any work begins.

Why does my opener strain when the spring fails
Springs carry most of the lifting weight. When they break, the opener tries to lift the full weight of the door.
