Garage door springs carry the weight of your door, literally. When they wear down or break, your entire system becomes unsafe or unusable. If your garage door is suddenly heavy, won’t open all the way, or your opener is straining to lift it, it’s time for a professional garage door spring replacement. Our San Diego-based team is licensed, bonded, and ready to help.
We specialize in high-tension spring repair and replacement for all types of residential garage doors. With top-rated service and 700+ five-star Yelp reviews, we’ve earned a reputation for reliability and results.

Most garage doors use one of two spring types: torsion springs or extension springs. Torsion springs are mounted above the door and twist to generate lifting power. Extension springs stretch along the track to support door movement. Both carry extreme tension and require professional tools for safe handling.
At Precise Garage Doors, we install only premium-grade springs matched to your door’s weight and size. We also offer upgraded options designed for 20,000+ cycle lifespans for long-term durability. Our trained technicians will walk you through your best options so your replacement is not just safe, but built to last.
If your door won’t open, drops quickly, or feels unusually heavy, your springs may be failing. You might also hear a loud bang when a spring snaps. These warning signs often point to stretched, broken, or unbalanced springs that are no longer supporting your door’s weight properly.
Trying to operate your door in this condition risks further damage and injury. We recommend scheduling a spring inspection at the first sign of trouble so we can restore balance and protect your opener from additional strain.

Spring failure can leave you stuck at home or unable to secure your garage. That’s why our San Diego technicians offer same-day service and handle everything on-site, from diagnosis to installation. We arrive with all necessary tools and parts to get the job done safely, with minimal disruption to your day.
Our team is trained in high-tension spring removal and follows strict safety protocols. Each job is backed by our satisfaction guarantee, and our technicians are always happy to answer questions and explain the repair process.




Garage door springs wear out with use. Most are rated for 10,000 cycles, which goes quickly in busy households. Routine maintenance can catch issues before they turn into emergencies. We offer preventive spring tune-ups, where we inspect for signs of fatigue, lubricate moving parts, and test tension for safe operation. Keeping up with spring care helps protect your door, opener, and wallet. Ask about adding a spring checkup to your next service visit.
Most garage door springs last around 10,000 cycles, or 7–10 years with regular use. If your door sees frequent daily traffic, you may need spring replacement sooner. If you’re unsure, contact our team for an inspection and spring lifespan check.
No, it’s extremely dangerous. Springs are under high tension and can cause serious injury without the right tools and training. Our licensed San Diego technicians handle spring replacement safely and efficiently. Get in touch to schedule professional service.
We install high-grade torsion and extension springs rated for long life and matched to your door’s weight and usage. We also offer extended-life options for added value. Reach out to us if you’d like help choosing the right spring for your system.
If your door won’t open, closes too fast, or your opener is straining, a broken spring is a likely cause. You may also hear a loud snap when the spring breaks. To avoid further damage or injury, contact us for a fast diagnosis.
Yes. When springs fail, your opener carries the full weight of the door, something it’s not designed to do. This strain can cause motor failure or track damage. Let us help restore balance before your opener gets overworked.
We remove worn or broken springs, install new matched springs, test door balance, and check opener alignment. We also perform a full safety check before leaving. Schedule your appointment to keep your system running safely.

EXCELLENT Based on 948 reviews Posted on Yelp J H.Verified The Wayne Dalton spring system broke on my garage. After some research it was widely recommended for it to be converted to a standard torsion system. Contacted Precise Garage Door for an estimate. The price was great and service was better. They came out the next day and Eli was able to complete the conversion in one hour. Highly recommended !Posted on Yelp Jeff O.Verified Eli J. Was our technician today. He was prompt and curtious.

Thank you Ben and Precise Garage Door team!Posted on Yelp Jamie A.Verified My roll-up garage door spring broke. I called Precision and Ariel came out later that day. I told him I thought I needed to have my 25 year old door fully replaced. He took a look at it and said it just needed a new spring, othwise it was in good shape. The work was finished quickly and at a good price. Thanks for doing a great job and saving me $!Posted on Yelp Frank R.Verified I can see why this company is rated so high. It's a Sunday afternoon, and our 3 car garage had trouble on the 2 car side. One of the springs broke. We get a time frame of 6pm-8pm. Ben, the technician shows up around 630-645ish. He tells us what the problem is and we choose a course of action for the repair. After it was all said and done, he completed the repairs very quickly and extremely professional. And I'm certain that we got the best value for the repairs on a weekend. We would recommend this company for a garage repair anytime. Thanks so much Ben for your time and professional response to our problem.Posted on Yelp Kim M.Verified Ariel was awesome!!! He came less than 45 minutes from the time called. He analyzed the problem and fixed it pretty fast. His communication was great!!Posted on Yelp S D.Verified Another great job upgrading an opener on a large door. They also reinforced a mount on a different opener as Leo noticed it was moving during operation. Thank you guys!Posted on Yelp Cristi P.Verified The safety sensors of my garage door had gone out of alignment months ago and I could not get them back in alignment on my own; they were not installed correctly on the tracks so over time jostled off. I did my research and found Precise, called them in the morning, and they were able to get a technician, Ariel, out by the end of the day, who fixed the issue. Ariel was kind, considerate, and professional and got everything working again in less than an hour. Very happy with the outcome and the price was very fair, too.Posted on Yelp Dennis H.Verified Prompt service and great price They took very good care of us and I will be using him for my next garage project down in San Diego
