How this differs from a roller door spring

A roller door's spring fades. A torsion spring on a sectional door snaps, usually with a bang loud enough to wake the house, and the door is unusable from that moment.

So the diagnostic is easier but the situation is worse. There is no gradual warning to ignore.

Confirming it

Pull the emergency release and lift by hand. A sound door lifts easily and stays put. A door with a broken spring is 80 to 150 kilos of dead weight that drops if you let go.

If that's what you have, leave it closed and keep people clear of the opening.

Doing both at once

Where a door has two springs and one has gone, the other has the same age and the same cycle count. Replacing the pair costs marginally more now and avoids a second callout inside a year.

Cables are usually done at the same time for the same reason.

Indicative pricing

Where this job typically sits. Access is usually a bigger cost driver than size.

Torsion spring replacement$250 – $600Sectional door springs, replaced in pairs where the door has two.

Motor / opener repair$150 – $450Boards, capacitors and gear sets on an opener still supported by parts.
New opener supplied and fitted$450 – $1,200Depends on door weight and whether you want app control or a keypad.
Off-track correction$150 – $400Re-seating the door and replacing whatever let go. More if a panel or slat is bent.
Full service$120 – $250Tension, cables, rollers, tracks, opener limits and safety reverse.
Door replacement, existing openingfrom $1,400Roller doors sit at the lower end here; wide insulated sectionals at the upper.

Prices are indicative only. What a job costs depends on the door type, the width of the opening, the part, and whether it can be repaired or has to be replaced. You get a firm price before any work starts.
