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

In Concord, the weather is often part of the story behind a garage door feels too heavy. Months of coastal salt air and inland heat mean salt air corrodes hardware and daily use wears rollers across Contra Costa County — exactly the kind of wear a local tech knows to check first.

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.
