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

In Tulsa, the weather is often part of the story behind a garage door feels too heavy. Months of wild temperature swings and hail mean hail dents panels and temp swings fatigue springs across Tulsa 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.
