Should You Replace One Garage Door Spring or Both at the Same Time in Phoenix, AZ?

By Jessica Sanchez / September 20, 2026 / Comments Off on Should You Replace One Garage Door Spring or Both at the Same Time in Phoenix, AZ?

In most cases, replace both garage door springs when one breaks, even if the other looks fine.

Replacing both restores even tension and protects the opener.…

What Happens to a Garage Door’s Seal When the Spring Wears Out?

By Jessica Sanchez / August 20, 2026 / Comments Off on What Happens to a Garage Door’s Seal When the Spring Wears Out?

A worn garage door spring lets the door sag or hang unevenly instead of sitting flat in its frame. That unevenness pulls the weatherstripping away from the frame on one or more sides, creating small gaps where air moves in and out. The longer a weak spring goes unaddressed, the wider those gaps tend to…
