Garage Door Spring Repair
Garage door springs are the unsung heroes of your garage door system, bearing the brunt of the door’s weight and tension. These powerful components make lifting a 200-pound door feel effortless. However, over time, the constant stress takes its toll, leading to wear and potential breakage.
At Garage Door Repair Wellington, spring replacement is one of our most frequently requested services. Torsion springs, which typically last between 15,000 to 20,000 cycles, are the most common type we encounter. Extension springs, found in older systems, generally have a shorter lifespan. Recognizing the signs of a failing spring – such as a door that won’t open, closes too quickly, or hangs unevenly – is crucial for homeowner safety.
Professional spring repair is not just recommended; it’s essential. The high tension in these components makes DIY attempts extremely dangerous. Our certified technicians use specialized tools and techniques to safely remove old springs and install new ones, ensuring your garage door operates smoothly and safely for years to come.

Garage Door Cable Repair
Cables play a vital role in your garage door’s operation, working in tandem with the springs to lift and lower the door. These thin but strong steel wires run from the bottom bracket of the door to the drum at the top of the track. When functioning correctly, they distribute the door’s weight evenly and ensure smooth operation.
Over time, cables can fray, snap, or come off the drum. This wear is often due to normal use, but factors like rust, improper installation, or an unbalanced door can accelerate damage. A broken cable can cause the door to jam, hang crookedly, or even fall suddenly, posing a significant safety risk. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, garage door-related injuries account for thousands of emergency room visits annually.
Garage Door Repair Wellington’s expert technicians are equipped to handle all cable issues. We use high-quality galvanized steel cables that resist rust and corrosion, ensuring longevity. Our repair process includes a thorough inspection of the entire system, as cable problems often indicate other underlying issues. We’ll adjust the door’s balance, lubricate moving parts, and ensure all components are working harmoniously to prevent future cable strain.

Garage Door Opener Repair
The garage door opener is the mechanical heart of your garage door system, providing the power to lift and lower your door with the push of a button. Modern openers come in various types – chain drive, belt drive, and screw drive – each with its own benefits and potential issues. Brands like Chamberlain, LiftMaster, and Genie dominate the market, each offering unique features and reliability.
Common opener problems include worn gears, stripped motors, and electrical malfunctions. These issues can manifest as strange noises, intermittent operation, or complete failure. In some cases, the problem may not be with the opener itself but with the remote, wall switch, or safety sensors. A comprehensive diagnostic approach is crucial to pinpoint the exact issue.
At Garage Door Repair Wellington, our technicians are trained in repairing and replacing all major opener brands and models. We carry a wide range of replacement parts and can often repair your existing unit, saving you the cost of a full replacement. If a new opener is necessary, we offer energy-efficient models with advanced security features, such as rolling code technology that changes your opener’s access code after each use, preventing code theft.

Garage Door Sensor Repair
Garage door sensors are a critical safety feature, mandated by law since 1993. These small devices, typically mounted near the floor on both sides of the garage door opening, use an invisible beam to detect obstacles. If anything breaks this beam while the door is closing, the sensors signal the opener to reverse the door’s direction, preventing potential injury or damage.
Misaligned sensors are a common issue, often caused by accidental bumps or shifts over time. This can result in a door that won’t close or reverses unexpectedly. Other problems include dirty lenses, loose wiring, or sensor failure due to age or environmental factors. The Department of Consumer Affairs reports that properly functioning sensors can prevent hundreds of accidents each year.
Garage Door Repair Wellington’s sensor repair service begins with a thorough inspection and cleaning of the sensor units. We check for proper alignment, secure connections, and clear signal transmission. If replacement is necessary, we install top-quality sensors compatible with your opener model. Our technicians also educate homeowners on maintaining these crucial safety devices, including regular cleaning and testing to ensure continued protection.

Garage Door Roller Repair
Rollers are the small wheels that guide your garage door along its tracks, allowing for smooth, quiet operation. Most residential doors have 10-12 rollers, each bearing significant weight and stress with every open and close cycle. Quality rollers can last up to 10,000 cycles, but factors like humidity, temperature fluctuations, and frequency of use can impact their lifespan.
Signs of roller wear include squeaking, grinding noises, or visible damage such as cracks or flattened sections. Worn rollers can cause the door to vibrate excessively, potentially damaging other components. They can also increase the strain on your opener, leading to premature motor failure. The type of roller – steel, nylon, or sealed bearing – affects both performance and durability.
Garage Door Repair Wellington offers roller replacement using high-grade materials suited to your specific needs. Nylon rollers, for instance, operate more quietly and resist corrosion better than steel, making them ideal for humid climates. Our technicians replace rollers in sets to ensure even wear and optimal door balance. We also lubricate the new rollers and adjust the tracks if necessary, guaranteeing smooth, efficient operation that extends the life of your entire garage door system.

Garage Door Off-Track Repair
A garage door off its tracks is not just an inconvenience; it’s a serious safety hazard. This problem occurs when the door’s rollers jump out of the metal tracks that guide the door’s movement. Common causes include impact damage (like backing into a partially open door), worn rollers, loose hardware, or misaligned tracks. In some cases, an off-track door can be the result of a broken cable or spring.
An off-track door may hang at an angle, make grinding noises, or fail to open or close fully. Attempting to operate the door in this condition can cause further damage to the door panels, rollers, and tracks. The Consumer Product Safety Commission warns that a falling garage door can exert up to 400 pounds of pressure, emphasizing the importance of professional repair.
Garage Door Repair Wellington’s off-track repair service begins with a safety assessment to prevent further damage or injury. Our technicians carefully realign the door, often needing to partially disassemble it to reset the rollers in the tracks. We then inspect and repair any underlying issues, such as bent tracks, worn rollers, or loose hardware. Finally, we test the door’s balance and operation, making any necessary adjustments to prevent future derailments.
