Extension Springs in New Orleans, LA

Extension springs stretch along the horizontal tracks above the door. When one breaks, it can whip through the garage with dangerous force — which is why we always install safety cables through the new springs. Our technicians carry replacement extension springs for same-day service.We match the new spring to your door's weight, stretch it to the correct length, and install a safety cable through the center so that if the spring ever breaks again, the cable holds it in place.
