To determine if your garage door requires expert attention, you'll have to find out if your garage door spring is working properly. Let's have a look at some of the top signs of a malfunctioning torsion spring.

Garage door cables look broken:

If the cables on your garage door fly all over the place, detached from the door or fall to the ground, this could be an indication of a bad torsion spring. It's not so rare for cables to break down or require replacement when an garage door spring breaks.

If your door has 2 torsion springs, one will keep the cables firm & fixed on the drums. You'll have to look up the spring to check if one is busted. A visual inspection would be sufficient.

You hear a loud noise from the garage:

When a torsion spring breaks on an overhead door, it releases a huge amount of energy. When springs break down, they unwind & emit a loud sound as a consequence of the coils spinning on the shaft.

Majority of the home owners assert that prior to discovering a broken spring, they heard a loud sound coming from the garage.

The top section of your Garage door is twisted:

Relying on the configuration & kind of garage door you own, your door opener might bend in the top part when it attempts to open your door with a busted spring. This is particularly true when the "open force" has turned up all the way on the openers circuit board.

You might not know that you've had a malfunctioning torsion spring until you try to leave your house. You try to open the garage door but the door only goes up 6 inches & then stops.
