A garage door that feels too heavy in Broken Arrow almost always means the springs are worn or broken. A properly balanced door should lift with one hand.

Why does this keep happening in Broken Arrow? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Wild temperature swings and hail takes its toll — hail dents panels, and temp swings fatigue springs — so a garage door feels too heavy is one of the more common calls our Broken Arrow crews run.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door feels too heavy

Here's what our local techs check first — and what each one usually means.

Worn or broken springs
Tired springs no longer counterbalance the door's weight.
An undersized spring
A spring not matched to the door makes it heavy and wears fast.
Binding rollers or tracks
Friction adds to the felt weight.
How we fix it

Fixed fast by a local Broken Arrow pro

We measure the door, install the correct springs, service the rollers, and balance-test so it lifts effortlessly.
