Garage Door Spring Repair Nipomo CA

Safe, Professional Repair for Broken Springs and Cables

Your garage door’s springs and cables do the heavy lifting every time the door opens or closes. When one of these parts breaks, your system becomes unsafe to operate—and forcing it can cause major damage. At RAD Garage Door Services, we specialize in garage door spring repair and cable replacement in Nipomo, CA, restoring balance, reliability, and safety to your entire system.



As a family-owned business, we take pride in providing local homeowners with honest assessments, precision repairs, and top-quality parts. Whether you’ve heard a loud bang from a snapped spring or noticed your door lifting unevenly, our experienced technicians will diagnose the issue and perform the repair correctly the first time.

Why Springs and Cables Are So Important

Garage door springs and cables work together to counterbalance the door’s weight, allowing it to lift smoothly and safely. Without properly functioning components, the door can become too heavy for the opener or impossible to move manually.

Torsion springs are mounted above the door and wind tightly to lift it evenly.

Extension springs stretch along the sides of the door and expand under tension.

Lift cables connect the springs to the bottom of the door, transferring force for balanced movement.

When a spring or cable breaks, it puts stress on other parts of the door system, increasing wear and the risk of failure. Prompt professional service prevents costly damage and protects your safety.

If a spring or cable breaks, do not attempt to lift or force the door open. Garage doors weigh hundreds of pounds, and the tension in these components can cause serious injury. Contact our trained technicians for safe, immediate service.

Why Professional Spring Repair Is Essential

Garage door springs are under extreme tension—often hundreds of pounds of stored force. DIY repairs can be extremely dangerous and frequently cause further damage or injury. Our technicians are trained to handle high-tension systems safely, using precise measurements and industry-grade tools to prevent accidents.



Professional repairs also ensure your system stays balanced. Installing the wrong type or size of spring can cause uneven lifting, premature wear on your opener, and potential failure. At RAD, we calculate the exact spring specifications needed for your door’s weight and track type, ensuring optimal performance.

Preventing Future Spring and Cable Failures

While normal wear is inevitable, you can extend the lifespan of your springs and cables with regular maintenance. Our preventive services include:
