In December 2025 our team was called to a home in Stamford, CT after the customer experienced a complete spring failure that left the garage door unsafe to operate. The homeowner had already gathered several quotes, and ultimately chose Ben Garage Doors LLC thanks to our fast response time and fair pricing.
Upon arrival, our technicians confirmed that the torsion spring had reached the end of its life cycle and could no longer support the door’s weight. We installed a new torsion spring rated for 10,000 cycles, size 234-2-30, ensuring reliable lifting strength and smooth door performance. Spring replacement is one of the most sensitive and dangerous garage door repairs, and it is never recommended for homeowners to attempt this type of repair on their own. A licensed professional is essential for both safety and proper calibration.
After installing the new spring, we completed a full door balance test and performed all necessary safety checks to make sure the door operated properly under tension. This type of service typically takes around one hour, and in this case the customer was extremely satisfied with both the result and the quick turnaround.
This project is part of our standard garage door repair and garage door spring repair services offered throughout Stamford, CT and the surrounding area.
