A loud bang from the garage in Huntsville is the unmistakable sound of a torsion spring snapping. The door will likely feel very heavy or refuse to open.

Why does this keep happening in Huntsville? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Heat and humidity takes its toll — humidity corrodes hardware, and falling limbs dent panels — so a loud bang from the garage is one of the more common calls our Huntsville crews run.
