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

There's a local angle to a loud bang from the garage in Saint Paul: the area's sub-zero cold is hard on garage doors — deep cold snaps springs, and freeze-thaw warps tracks. Our Saint Paul techs see these failures spike around every January cold snap, so they track down the real cause instead of masking the symptom.
