What’s your garage used for? Most people will say the same thing, to
hold my car, storage or a work area. All of these things can become a
hostage of your garage if your garage door spring breaks.
You see, the springs are what make opening and closing your garage an
easy process, when one of them snaps or stretches out the use of your
garage can come to a screeching halt. Now this may not seem like a big
deal if you do not use your garage but if you do keep your vehicle
inside the garage what are you going to do? Imagine it’s Monday morning
and you are already running late for work when you go to open your door
and nothing happens because a spring is damaged. Now what? Guess you
will have to call your boss to let them know you will not be coming in
today. And who likes to do that, not me and I’m sure not you either. So
what do you do? The answer is simpler than you would think, with a quick
phone call into our office we can have a skilled garage door technician
at your home within a hour to fix whatever the issue may be. Since all
of our garage door repair
technicians carry a wide selection of various sized springs in stock in
their mobile service unit you can be sure we will have the part you
need to get your garage door working like it should. Since we have the
ability to perform most garage door repairs with our same day service
within a few short hours we can have you back on your way to work before
lunch. The garage door can weigh close to 300 pounds and the springs
contain enough tension to shatter a wall when they come unwound. This is
why it is extremely important to only hire a professional garage door technician
to repair your broken springs. Many people think it will be a quick do
it yourself type of job, this is where they are mistaken. In the last
year there were countless injuries caused to DIYers trying to replace a broken garage door spring
themselves, and after they got home from the hospital they still had a
broken garage door which they needed to call in the pros for. a common
mistake we see almost every day is when a customer has a friend or they
do it themselves and change the spring the only change the one that was
causing the problem, this is a big no-no, when you change the springs
you need to change both of them if you only do one you will be leaving
the one open for the chance of breaking as well. when they are not
changed together the older spring cannot perform as well as the newer
one making it work harder to perform the same task and after a while it
will snap under the pressure which will either cause your garage door to
come crashing down to the ground or stay stuck shut until both springs
are replaced. If the door is open when the spring breaks you will have a
much bigger issue to deal with than a spring. Since the door weighs
close to 300 pounds when it comes crashing down with that much force
anyone or thing under it will become destroyed and so will the door. The
simplest way to avoid this type of situation is to let the skilled
professional technicians at Philadelphia Garage Door take care of your garage door problems.
