Forest Lake Garage Door Company Warns Residents to Get Springs Checked

FOREST LAKE, Minn. - March 7, 2014 - PRLog -- Premium Garage Door Service, Forest Lake garage door company, reminds locals to keep an eye on their garage door springs.

Garage door springs play a vital role in raising and lowering your doors. The motor of the garage door could not lift the weight independently, so the springs assist.

Garage door springs typically last for 5 to 10 years, depending on frequency of use. It may not be something you keep track of, but when they break, you'll know it.

It is possible for garage door springs to break due to exposure to the elements over time. They can also simply snap due to old age and wear.

Avoid a situation where you're without a working garage door. Be proactive and maintain your garage doors properly.

"When your garage door springs wear out, have a professional replace them," said Steve Jacobsen, owner of Premium Garage Door Service. "Garage doors repair can be dangerous, and without proper training someone could really injure themselves."

Without working garage door springs, you will have to operate the door manually until the springs are replaced. It is important to do so as soon as possible.

Do a little preventative maintenance annually, so you know the conditions of your garage door springs before it's too late.

If you are in need of new springs, contact your local Forest Lake garage doors experts today.
