On our workmanship

Galvanised, high-cycle springs that last

We fit galvanised torsion and extension springs rated for 25,000+ cycles — roughly double the life of the budget springs most doors come with — and we replace springs in pairs so the door is balanced and the second one doesn't go next month. Sydney's coastal air is hard on steel; galvanised springs are what it needs.

Balanced, tested, and safe

A spring swap isn't finished when the new spring is on. We wind it to the door's exact weight, check the cables and drums, test the balance by hand, then run the opener's safety reverse. You get a door that lifts with one finger and an opener that isn't straining.

Spring replacement from $249

Spring replacement starts from $249 fitted, with no call-out fee. The technician confirms the exact price once he's seen the door, before any work begins, and every spring is covered by our written warranty.

The most common garage door failure

Springs do the heavy lifting — the motor only guides the door. After 10,000 to 15,000 cycles (seven to ten years for most Sydney — inner city, east, inner west and North Shore homes) they fatigue and snap, usually with a bang that sounds like something fell. The door then weighs 80 to 150 kilos dead, the opener can't lift it, and forcing it risks the motor and the cables. Ironclad Garage Door Repair replaces springs every day, usually within hours of your call.

FAQ

Questions people ask us

How do I know it's the spring?+

A loud bang, a visible gap in the coil above the door, or a door that's suddenly very heavy or stops a few centimetres up. Any of those almost always means a snapped spring.

Can I use the door until you arrive?+

Please don't. With a broken spring the opener is lifting dead weight and the door can drop. Leave it and ring us.

Do you replace both springs?+

Yes, on two-spring doors we replace them as a pair so the door stays balanced and you're not calling us back for the other one.

Will the new springs last?+

Our galvanised high-cycle springs are rated for 25,000+ cycles, around twice the life of standard springs.

Heard a bang, or is the door hanging crooked? Don't force it. A snapped spring or cable leaves the door under tension and it can drop. Keep people and cars clear and ring Ironclad Garage Door Repair — we make it safe first.
