Why Garage Door Springs Break Faster in Laguna Niguel
Laguna Niguel sits 3–6 miles from the Pacific. Salt-laden marine air accelerates metal fatigue — torsion springs here typically last 20,000–25,000 cycles before failure, compared to 25,000–35,000 cycles inland. If your door stopped mid-lift or slammed down without warning, a broken spring is almost always the cause.
We stock galvanized torsion springs and oil-tempered extension springs in every size. No waiting for parts — most repairs completed in 60–90 minutes.
Torsion vs Extension Springs
Torsion springs mount horizontally above the door on a metal shaft. Most Laguna Niguel homes with double 16×7 doors use a pair. They store extreme energy — never attempt DIY replacement. Extension springs run parallel to the horizontal tracks. Common on single-car doors in Salt Creek Ranch and older Rancho Niguel homes.
