More about this in Bridgeland

A dented garage door torsion spring is most often the result of something striking the overhead shaft or the plastic cone at either end of the spring — a tall ladder, a stored kayak, or shelving mounted too close to the door track. Even minor damage to the cone can throw off how evenly the coils wind under tension. This fault is one of several covered under Bridgeland garage door company.

Call (346) 220-4724 to have the shaft and spring checked before the door is run again.
