A loud bang from the garage in Layton 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 Layton? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Freezing cold and heavy snow takes its toll — cold snaps brittle springs, and high-altitude sun cracks seals — so a loud bang from the garage is one of the more common calls our Layton crews run.
