What is your door doing?
Pick the closest match. You'll see what it usually means, what to do right now, and what to tell the contractor when you call.
Heard a loud bang
Stop using the doorWhat it usually means
- A torsion spring has most likely snapped
- Look above the door: a spring with a visible gap in the coil is broken
Do this now
- Stop using the opener. It can strain or break with a dead spring
- Do not try to lift the door by hand. It can weigh 150 lbs or more
- Keep children and pets away from the door
Tell the contractor
- One spring or two above the door?
- Door width (single about 8–9 ft, double about 16 ft)
- A photo of the spring helps the contractor bring the right parts
Door stuck open or a spring just broke
Do these five things first
Garage door springs and cables hold a lot of tension. Most injuries happen when someone tries to fix or force the door themselves.

- 01
Stop using the opener
Running an opener against a broken spring or a jammed door can break the opener too.
- 02
Don't lift the door by hand
Without a working spring you are lifting the full weight of the door.
- 03
Keep hands off springs and cables
Torsion springs above the door and cables at the bottom corners are under high tension.
- 04
Unplug the opener if the door is off track
That prevents someone from pressing the remote while the door is unstable.
- 05
Clear the area and take a photo
Keep kids, pets and cars away, then text a photo with your town.

FAQ
Questions homeowners ask
What is SureLift?
SureLift is a referral service for garage door repair and installation in Cherry Hill and nearby South Jersey towns. You tell us what's wrong and where you are. We pass your request to an independent garage door contractor who serves your area, and that contractor contacts you, quotes the job and does the work.
Who actually comes to my house?
An independent garage door contractor, not a SureLift employee. Before any work starts, ask for the contractor's business name and New Jersey Home Improvement Contractor registration number (it starts with 13VH). You can check that number with the NJ Division of Consumer Affairs.
How much does a garage door repair cost?
It depends on the problem, the parts and the size of your door. The contractor looks at the door and gives you a price before starting. Ask for it in writing. In New Jersey, home improvement work over $500 requires a written contract.
Do I pay SureLift anything?
No. You pay the contractor directly for the work, and there is no separate SureLift bill. SureLift may receive a referral fee from the contractor.
Which towns do you cover?
Cherry Hill, Voorhees, Haddonfield, Collingswood and Pennsauken in Camden County, and Marlton, Mount Laurel, Moorestown, Maple Shade and Medford in Burlington County. If you're nearby, call and ask.
Can I send a photo or video of the problem?
Yes, and it helps. Text it to (609) 250-9806 with your town and a short description. A photo of the spring area or the side tracks often tells the contractor which parts to bring.
Is it safe to open a garage door with a broken spring?
No. The springs carry most of the door's weight, and a typical two-car door can weigh well over 150 pounds. Don't lift it by hand and don't run the opener. Leave the door where it is and call.
