Garage Door Springs

Springs are the most dangerous part of the door and the number one reason to hire a specialist for repairs. Broken garage door springs are our number one repair that we do.

There are two main types of springs: extension and torsion springs. Torsion springs are the most common type and are mounted over the top of the door opening, then wind back and forth as the door opens or closes. Extension springs are mounted along the garage door rails and extend and contract up and down when used. The purpose of the springs is to counterbalance the entire weight of your garage door.

Do not under any circumstances try to operate your garage door if the springs are broken. Without springs properly counterbalancing the weight of the door, the operator could burn out, the door could fall of the tracks or any other number of issues could occur.

Garage Door Maintenance

A tune-up will prolong your door's life. Garage doors are made up of different materials, including multiple metal moving parts, so having it maintained every six months is a good habit. Regular maintenance can help lengthen the lifespan of your garage door and prevent larger issues and more costly repairs down the line. Nowadays, garage doors are made of wood, metal and fiberglass and each has its own requirements for maintenance.

Modern Garage Door Features

The days of old, squeaking rusty garage doors are over with the latest in whisper-quiet garage doors. New rollers and belt-driven operators are a huge improvement over equipment from the past.

We also install smart garage door openers, which can be controlled by your phone.

The Ultimate Guide to Garage Door Openers

Did you know the garage door opener was invented all the way back in 1921? Over the years, the technology and mechanics of this device have evolved by leaps and bounds. As powerful as openers are, they're not designed to lift the entire weight of your garage door. Openers are built to simply guide your door along its properly aligned tracks.

Small vs. Large Garage Door Companies

Why choose a large, national garage door company when you can work with a local, family-owned business right here in the Denver area? There are numerous reasons!
  • Phones - You'll always speak to the same people when you call A1 Garage Door, not an out-of-state call center.
  • Sales Process - You'll know exactly what you're getting with A1 Garage Door, instead of surprise charges and an undertrained, overworked technician at your door.
  • Accessibility - We're available whenever you need us and you're always welcome to visit us in person and pick up any items.
  • Repair Services - We'll let you know exactly what we're working on and make sure you and your home are safe during the installation process.
  • Installation - LiftMaster openers are known as the best garage door openers on the market. It is backed by the best warranty and lasts longer. At A1 Garage Door, we only install LiftMaster brand products.
  • Follow-Up - Large national companies aren't designed to build a relationship with their customers. Locally owned businesses love creating relationships in their community.
Additionally, larger companies make more money by suggesting cheap repairs and offering just a few options. Small companies will consult with you to ensure you're fully informed and how to prevent any future breakdowns.
