Garage Door Spring Repair
In Sherwood, AR
We replaced springs on 26 of our 54 Sherwood jobs in the last 12 months, and only a handful of those calls came in as “broken spring.” Most started as a crooked door, a door that wouldn’t close or a loud opener. Here’s how to tell when the spring is the real problem.
Quick Answer: Spring Repair In Sherwood
Call (501) 244-3667 and tell us what the door is doing. Someone answers 24/7. We come up from our Little Rock shop on West Markham, look at the springs, cables and drums together, and give you a flat-rate price before any work starts.
Our standard spring is the 30,000-cycle Ultra-Cycle torsion spring, rated for three times the cycles of a typical builder-grade spring, with a 3-year parts warranty. If you want the lowest price, we also stock a lower-priced 10,000-cycle spring and will quote both. A trip charge applies to every service call; weekend calls between 8 AM and 6 PM cost the same as weekdays.

Sherwood Spring Work, By The Numbers
Only 5 of last year’s Sherwood spring jobs were booked as broken springs; the rest turned up on calls for something else. Four of our seven Sherwood off-track calls also ended with new springs. About half of all Sherwood spring jobs were a spring and nothing else, and close to half also needed bearings.
Live counts come from completed, invoiced jobs at Sherwood addresses and refresh nightly. Breakdowns cover the 12 months through October 2026.
When A Crooked Door Is Really A Spring Problem
Off-track doors were a bigger share of our Sherwood work last year than in any other town where we did 20 or more jobs, and a broken spring is one of the ways a door ends up there. When a spring breaks, the tension that keeps the lift cables tight on their drums is suddenly gone. A cable can go slack and jump off its drum, and the door ends up hanging crooked or riding out of its track. What you see is a crooked door; what broke is a spring.
Signs it’s more than a roller or a bent track:
- A gap in one of the springs on the bar above the door
- A cable hanging loose or wrapped wrong on the drum at the top corner
- The door sits higher on one side than the other
- You heard a bang before the door went crooked
If you see any of those, stop using the door, unplug the opener, and keep everyone out from under it. Don’t try to lift it straight or put the cable back on yourself; the remaining spring is still under full tension. Our track repair and cable repair pages cover the other half of the job.
How We Fix It
Spring Replacement
New Ultra-Cycle torsion springs wound to your door’s weight, both springs on a two-spring door, a balance test and an opener reset. Covered by our 3-year parts warranty.
Spring Package
Springs and new drums, with the end bearings checked and replaced if worn. A good fit when the cable came off the drum or the drums show wear.
Premium Rebuild
Standard springs plus drums, cables, end bearings, center bearing and a full set of nylon rollers in one visit, backed by a 5-year warranty.
Elite Rebuild
The same full rebuild with our 30,000-cycle Ultra-Cycle springs, backed by a 10-year warranty. The longest-lasting fix for a door you plan to keep.
Want the lowest price on a straight spring swap? Ask for our 10,000-cycle spring and we’ll quote it next to the Ultra-Cycle. Full option details · spring cost guide.

Sherwood Spring Repair Questions
It can be either, and often both. On a two-spring door, one broken spring can pull the door unevenly and throw a cable off its drum. Four of our seven Sherwood off-track calls last year also needed springs. Stop running the door and call; we check the springs, cables and tracks together.
Usually, yes. We dispatch from Little Rock and Sherwood is part of our regular route along with North Little Rock and Jacksonville. Tell us if the door is stuck open, because a garage you can’t close gets moved up the list.
Not during the day. Weekend calls between 8 AM and 6 PM are priced the same as weekdays. Calls at 6 PM or later carry an after-hours emergency fee, weekends included.
Our standard is the 30,000-cycle Ultra-Cycle spring, about three times the rated life of a builder-grade 10,000-cycle spring. At around four opens and closes a day, that’s roughly 20 years versus 7. We also stock the 10,000-cycle spring at a lower price and quote both.
Both replace the springs, drums, cables, end bearings, center bearing and rollers 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.
Please don’t. The cable is connected to a spring system under heavy tension, and re-seating it safely means letting that tension down first. It’s one of the most common ways people get hurt working on a garage door.
