When a garage door spring breaks, you may notice several signs. The main indicator is a loud noise, which does not necessarily only happen while the door is operating. In addition, the coil will also be physically separated, the door will be extremely heavy, and there will be loose cables.
A garage door's lifespan can vary greatly depending on the material, quality of installation, maintenance, and local weather conditions. On average, a garage door can last between 15 to 30 years. Regular maintenance, such as lubrication and balance checks, can extend the door's lifespan.
