Garage Door Spring Repair
In Benton, AR
Springs were part of 41 of our 80 Benton jobs in the last 12 months, and half of those spring jobs also involved the opener. If your opener is humming and the door won’t budge, stop pressing the button and call us.
Quick Answer: Broken Garage Door Spring In Benton
Unplug the opener, leave the door where it is, and call (501) 244-3667. Someone answers 24/7. We come down I-30 from our Little Rock shop with 30,000-cycle Ultra-Cycle torsion springs on the truck, check the door, the bearings, the rollers and the opener, and give you one flat-rate price before we start.
The Ultra-Cycle spring is our standard because it’s rated for three times the cycles of a typical builder-grade spring, and spring repairs are covered by our 3-year parts warranty. We also keep a lower-priced 10,000-cycle spring for anyone who wants the lowest price today; just ask and we’ll quote both. A trip charge applies to every service call.

Don’t Let A Broken Spring Take The Opener With It
Your opener is built to guide a balanced door, not to lift one. The spring does the lifting. When the spring breaks, the opener suddenly has the door’s full weight on it, and every press of the button strains the motor and the gear inside. That’s how a spring repair turns into a spring repair plus an opener repair.
What to do the moment you hear the bang or see the door stall:
- Stop pressing the wall button and the remotes, and ask everyone in the house to do the same.
- Unplug the opener or switch off its breaker.
- Leave the door where it is. Don’t pull the red release cord if the door is open.
- Call (501) 244-3667 and tell us how many times the opener was run after the spring went. It helps us know what to check.
After any spring repair we reset the opener’s force and travel limits so it matches the new spring. If the opener was damaged, we tell you what we found and price it separately. Nothing gets replaced without your OK. More on openers is on our garage door opener repair page.
Benton Spring Jobs, By The Numbers
Nearly 3 in 4 of last year’s Benton spring jobs were in 72019, the rest in 72015. Besides the opener, the most common extras were bearings, replaced on more than half of spring jobs, and new rollers, on about 4 in 10.
Live counts come from completed, invoiced jobs at Benton addresses and refresh nightly. Percentages and the ZIP split cover the 12 months through October 2026.
Pick The Fix That Fits Your Door
- Spring Replacement. New Ultra-Cycle torsion springs, both springs on a two-spring door, wound to your door’s weight, then a balance test and opener reset. Choose this when the springs are the only thing that failed.
- Spring Package. Springs and new drums, with the end bearings checked and replaced if they’re worn. Choose this when the bearings or drums are part of the problem, which they often are in Benton.
- The Rebuild. Springs, drums, cables, end bearings, the center bearing and a full set of nylon rollers, all in one visit. The Premium Rebuild uses standard springs with a 5-year warranty; the Elite Rebuild uses Ultra-Cycle springs with a 10-year warranty. Choose this when the door is solid but everything that moves it is worn out.
- Lowest-price spring. A 10,000-cycle spring instead of the Ultra-Cycle. Choose this when up-front price is what matters most.
Each one is quoted at a flat rate on site. See what each option includes or read our spring replacement cost guide.
The Other Thing We Keep Finding In Benton
About 4 in 10 Benton spring jobs last year also got new rollers. Rollers ride in the tracks on each side of the door, and worn ones make the door harder to move, which puts extra load on the spring and the opener. Old steel rollers are also the main reason a door sounds like a freight train.
When we replace rollers we use 13-ball-bearing nylon rollers rated for 200,000 cycles. They’re quieter, they don’t need the same lubrication, and they come standard in our Rebuild. If your rollers are wobbling, cracked or grinding, we’ll point it out and price it; if they’re fine, we leave them. Our roller replacement page has more detail.

Benton Spring Repair Questions
In most cases, yes. Benton is a straight run down I-30 from our Little Rock shop, and we dispatch the same day whenever the schedule allows. Tell us whether the door is stuck open or closed when you call, because a door that won’t close goes to the front of the line.
Usually not. A humming opener and a door that won’t lift, or lifts a few inches and stops, is the classic sign of a broken spring. Unplug the opener so it doesn’t keep straining, and look for a gap in the spring above the door.
Not by itself. Most door noise comes from worn rollers, dry or worn end bearings and loose hardware. If the door was loud before the spring broke, ask us to look at the rollers and bearings while we’re there.
The 13-ball-bearing nylon rollers we install are rated for 200,000 cycles, run much quieter than old steel rollers, and are easier on the tracks. They’re part of our Rebuild and available on any repair.
Our standard Ultra-Cycle spring is rated for 30,000 cycles. At about four opens and closes a day, that’s roughly 20 years of rated life; heavier use, heat, rust and worn bearings shorten it. The lower-priced 10,000-cycle spring works out to about seven years at the same use.
Yes. Besides Benton we work in Bryant, Alexander, Shannon Hills, Bauxite and Malvern. Our Bryant and Alexander pages cover those areas.
