Every figure in this table comes from our published pricing page, and the line that fits your door is confirmed on site before any work starts.
| Spring job | 2026 range | What sets the final number |
|---|---|---|
| Torsion spring, single door | $150 - $350 | Door weight, wire size and the cycle rating you choose |
| Torsion pair, two-spring door | Above the single-door range, named on the quote | Both springs replaced together so the door stays balanced |
| Extension springs | $120 - $200 | Plus safety cables if the door is missing them |
| After-hours call | +$50 - $250 premium | Only when the door cannot wait for morning |
Because doors differ: weight, spring cycles, track condition and access change the job. That is why the number on your door is named after it is measured, not before. As Ryan puts it to callers: "We provide free on-site estimates. I can get to you and give you a free on-site estimate, no obligation, before we do anything."
A spring job is mostly skilled labor and stored-energy handling: safe unwinding of whatever tension remains, correct sizing against door weight, winding to specification and a balance test. The steel itself is a minority of the invoice. That is also why bargain-basement spring quotes deserve suspicion; the corner being cut is usually sizing, cycle rating or the balance work that protects your opener.

One spring or two: doubles carry pairs, replaced together, so the job sits above the single-door range (the published list names the single-door figure, the pair is priced on the quote). Cycle rating: 10,000-cycle standard versus 25,000-plus high-cycle steel that costs modestly more and lasts multiples longer, the best quiet upgrade in the trade. Access and condition: seized shafts, rusted set screws and corrosion on the shaft or drums add legitimate time. Timing: after-hours emergency work carries the market premium of +$50 - $250, which is why a door that failed shut can profitably wait for morning. Because doors differ: weight, spring cycles, track condition and access change the job.

A spring price is only as good as the measurement behind it, so we weigh the door and measure the old spring before naming a number. If you want to check the spring yourself first, the spring measuring guide shows the four numbers that matter, and torsion versus extension springs tells you which kind your door has. Comparing a lower quote? Ryan asks for the other company's specifications, not its price: "Will you send me the specifications of the door or whatever item it is from the other company? You don't have to send me the prices, just the specifications, so I can try to match or beat that price for you."
A defensible spring quote names wire size, inside diameter, length and cycle rating, or at minimum states the door weight it sized against. It includes both springs on a two-spring door, a balance test, and a warranty in writing, ours is 1 year parts and labor. Our exact price is agreed before work starts, and these market figures exist so you can judge it; the how-to background lives in the measuring guide and spring types guide.

Different spring specs, different labor accounting, different warranty depth. Two quotes only compare when both name the spring; make each one do so.
Cheaper today, dearer this year: the survivor shares age and cycles with the corpse and usually follows within months, buying a second service call. Pairs exist for balance.
At three or more daily cycles, unambiguously. The premium is small against doubling or quadrupling the years between failures.
Yes. The published 2026 range is the same in every city we serve, $150 - $350 for a single torsion spring, and the exact number is agreed on site before any work starts.
Ask exactly that. Ours covers parts and labor for a year; some warranties quietly cover only the coil.
