Garage door spring repair in Lantana, FL.
Broken spring? Our Lantana shop is 8 minutes from your driveway. We carry galvanized torsion and extension springs sized for every common 33462 door — coastal hardware standard, no upcharge.
Salt air, summer humidity, and 25-year-old hardware.
Lantana springs don't last as long as the national average. The salt spray off the Intracoastal and the Atlantic accelerates corrosion on the spring wire itself — and on the cables, brackets, and bearings that hold the spring in tension. A torsion spring rated for 10,000 cycles (about 7 years of average residential use) in Indiana might give you 4-5 years in 33462. East of US-1 it's even shorter.
The other factor is that a lot of Lantana housing stock dates from the 1970s and 1980s. Original springs from that era weren't galvanized. They look fine for 15 years, then fail without warning during a humid August afternoon — usually with that distinctive bang you can hear from inside the house.
We replace springs in Lantana more than any other single repair. Our shop carries 14 spring specs covering every common door size from the 7-foot single-car doors on Hypoluxo Island to the 18-foot dual-spring sectionals in Manor Forest. Both galvanized torsion and oil-tempered extension springs are stocked.
Symptoms of a broken spring.
Loud bang from the garage
The single most common signal. A torsion spring snaps with a noise like a small-caliber gunshot. If you heard one and the door now won't open, this is almost certainly it.
Door feels impossibly heavy
Without spring tension, a steel sectional door weighs 150-300 lbs. If you tried to lift it manually and couldn't, the spring is broken or severely fatigued.
Visible gap in the coil
Walk into the garage and look at the spring above the door. A gap of more than a quarter-inch in the coil means it's broken in two — even if the door still half-works.
