*Here is a pretty good guide as to why garage door springs break. It is on the overhead blog.
Garage Door Tensions Springs are a vital part of garage doors opening and closing operating system. It is within the tension or kinetic energy in these springs that provides most of the lift on a garage door. Although garage door springs are pretty heavy duty and very effective they do wear over time and actually snap when they have opened or closed one too many times.
Many people wonder how many uses they should get out of a normal residential garage door tension spring.
10,000 cycles is the average number a normal residential garage door tension spring has it it. What constitutes a complete cycle for garage doors?
A garage door cycle is one open and one close. That means that if you are like most Americans you go through 730 cycles per calendar year. For families that have more than one car and driver parked in their garage they will generally go through 4 – 6 cycles a day. But if you are a 730 cycle type of family your tension springs should last 13 years if they are properly maintained.
Proper maintenance on a garage door doesn’t have to be extensive. Some ways to maintain are by keeping the system well oiled. You can use some WD-40 a few times a year to make sure it is properly oiled. If the system isn’t running smoothly or with too much friction, it will cause more wear and tear and work for the door. This will reduce the life span of the door drastically.
Another basic maintenance procedure is to make sure the door is properly balanced. Oh and if your door gets off track don’t let it keep going up and down. The track help the door and the opener work better and for longer.
