You're late for work, coffee in hand, and as you hit the garage door opener... nothing. Silence reigns except for a faint creaking sound above. The culprit? A broken spring that's turned your garage door into an immovable wall.
Springs are the unsung heroes of your garage system; they do all the heavy lifting so you don't have to hoist up that hefty door yourself. When they snap, it's not just an inconvenience—it can be a full-stop on your daily routine.
