Torsion springs and bars from Express Garage Door Parts arrived today. After watching this video 3 times and replacing my torsion bars by myself I'm still alive, my garage door works and I'm drinking a celebratory beer.
Same here!
The video was great as well as the service I got from the team there. I was able to get it all done and appreciated the clear instructions.
Thanks so I have
Thanks so I have have to do some some stuff with jthis tomorrow for a

Great video! Helped me save $300 by replacing my broken spring myself! I was able to successfully replace both springs by using the right tools, watching this video a few times and being very careful. I am a woman that’s 5,3’ and 140 pounds for reference. Thanks so much for an awesome and very detailed video!!
That's awesome!
wow great
Awesome ;great example for men!!!
wow! my cousin paid $400 you great woman to do this job! we let mexican guy do our garage work
This guy just saved me $400. This is an excellent video that clearly shows how to get the job done safely.
Please someone explain to me. If I buy a pair (2 pieces of Torsion springs) how do I know which one is left and which one is right. Thanks.
@@ilijanikolic They are marked on the package.
Where did you buy the springs?
“This is your new best friend… this is a file”. 😂 That’s awesome. Great video. No sales pitch, no fluff, just good old fashioned good advice. Thanks for treating us like adults.
I just replaced my springs, and even made an adjustment to lighten the pull, and here I am, living to type the tale. Thank you for the easy to follow video. Made the job easy peasy. The hardest part of the whole thing was finding my file in my very messy shed. ;)
if there were Oscars for CZcams vids, this guy would win. great video, right to the point, no BS...
I agree 100%. This guy knows his stuff and doesn't waste any time.
@@billruha4728 spot on. this dude's video is a lot better than most out there. u rock man! saved me a few hundred bucks!
@@lloydd1386 Ha, thanks! He saved me $$$ too!
I think they're called the "streamys"
Yeah man, this is an awesome video. Quit your job and start a home improvement channel.
I have learned and done a lot of things, but never a garage door. I was at a complete loss till I watched your videos. Thank you very much.
One of the best instructional videos I have seen. After viewing it a couple of times I was able to install new torsion springs and repair my garage door. Taking my time in the interest of safety the repair time from start to finish was 90 minutes. Complete, simple, and well presented video. My thanks and hats off to Express!
I just fixed the tension springs in my garage door because of this video. I'm only a month away from being 30 years old and this is the first time I've ever had to fix one of these things. This video made it possible for me to do so.
Thank you.
Thank you for all the vidio help, the job went smoothly. I'm 74 years old, and i think my wife could have done this job, and she's 79. thanks again.
Called in this morning for a little help and I can honestly say, it's some of the best customer service I've ever had.
I've watched your video twice. You have done an excellent job in showing how to change springs. I feel very confident to do the job on our broken spring. THANK YOU! Doug
so many people talk about how afraid they are to do these. if a person takes their time, is methodical and careful, and follows your directions, it's very straightforward. best how-to video, in terms of clarity, conciseness, etc that I think I've ever seen
Agree..
Excellent company! Order the springs by 1pm and get them the next day. Garage door was easily fixed in 24 hours!
If I ever see you at a bar, drinks are on me. I followed your video step by step, I experienced no issues or surprises m, and
Excellent! Presentation was clear & thorough. Presenter appeared experienced and relaxed.
Allowed me to be a hero twice and saved my money and possibly marriage. Also probably prevented me from seriously injuring myself. Great vid!
Thank you so much for the videos. I was able to order the correct springs and repair my garage door safely for much cheaper than having a company come out and do it. I was super impressed by the quick shipping I had a tracking number 15min after ordering! The springs arrived the next day. CZcams is amazing for the homeowner to accomplish so much DIY!
I’ve installed maybe 100 garage doors in the time that I was a garage door technician. However, after not doing it for years, I had to watch this video to remember how to do certain things to replace my grandparent’s spring. Thank you for uploading this video. It has brought my memory back.
So far the best breakdown on how to. Really great job.
One of the very best explanations of ANYTHING - EVER!!! ... no wasted time, no wasted intro, no stupid music ... just the facts and very nicely presented. Kudos ... I will buy my needed springs here due primarily to this video!
my thoughts precisely...!
This is the first video that came up after searching how to change a garage door spring...I don't even want to look at any more....Great Video!!
I just replaced my kid brothers broken garage door torsion spring at his home. It was easy. I just watched the video a few times, Made some notes. No problem. But you do need to be careful working with those springs. All you need is some basic tool's. I did very good doing it the first time. Everything works great no problems. This video was very very helpful . Thank you. It save my brother a lot of money. Know he owes me a dinner. Thanks again.
It's very obvious that this guy has installed a ton of these things. Great info, safety tips and no wasted time blabbering about unrelated garbage. Thank you!
Great informative video, and I'm a 40yr. General Contractor. Never too old to learn! Thank you
We just did a Torsion Spring video and made sure to give you a plug. You don't realize it, but Helen & I bought our springs from you and your service was EXCELLENT.
Love your video, Thank you!
Got my torsion springs from y’all yesterday and Installed them today, if it wasn’t for you I woulda have been stumped, also didn’t help the home owner before installed them backwards to begin with 😂. Thanks again all the way from South Carolina!
I came, I saw, I conquered, I now can park in my garage again. Thank you so much for the video.
Of all the torsion spring install videos I’ve watched this morning, this one is the best. Very clearly informative and no steps were fast forwarded. His safety tips are concise and nothing appears to be overlooked. Great job dude. And thanks a bundle
Best "How to" video I've watched. Covered all aspects of the job and stressed the safety element. Ordered my springs from them on Wednesday at 11:30 a.m. and received them on Thursday at noon. Couldn't have been more satisfied.
So happy to help! As always let us know if we can help in any other way.
My husband and I just fixed our 8ft garage door spring and did 35 quarter turns but the door wouldn’t close. We loosened it to 31 turns and it worked. We just saved a lot of
money. Thank you so much!!!
You Sir, are a legend! Excellent video that just saved me over $500 AUD. I had this booked in for repair at $700, but after watching your video I cancelled and installed myself. Thank You!
Best video I have seen on torsion springs. Thank you.
This is a great video instruction. We followed another video and tried multiple times but couldn't get it right. We followed this video and it worked the first time! Thank you!
Just replaced my springs that I was able to measure and order from Express Garage Door Parts. I am a handy guy, but the videos are essential to making sure you don't hurt yourself when applying or removing tension from the springs. Thanks for providing, great tutorial!
Received my springs this past Monday with the bars I purchased to install it, my garage door works again, I previously found this video while searching if I could repair the problem and went straight to their website to purchase the springs I needed.
Thank you. This worked perfectly for me....saved me at least $215.
Thank you so much. Very straight and to the point. Everyone told me to get a pro. I watched your video and replaced both of my springs in about 1 1/2 hours. It's working great. Thanks again!!
A million Thanks.... Placed order, fast shipping, quick to reply tech support.
Followed the video step by step. Successful installation.
Thanks again.
Thank you for posting a clear "How To" video...I fixed my door and saved about $200!
Saved me 1,800 for simple repair video thanks
20 out of 10 I recommend! Parts were delivered next day and when we were installing the springs we noticed my current springs were opposite we called and he called us back and talked us through it and let us know why it was set up that way and that we should install the new springs that way so we would have to wind the opposite way. Great customer service! Glad my friend recommended you guys and I will now continue to recommend you to others.
Ordered all the springs and parts from this guy, watched his videos, and everything was perfect. Thanks!
Thanks for the great instructions. My garage door has been out of commission for two weeks. I ordered the springs and bars; they came in two days and 45 minutes later my door is back in service...thanks again!!!
Excellent. I don’t even need to change springs but your presentation skills and details ensured my interest watching the whole thing. Thx.
Took me 48 minutes to replace my springs. Fantastic tutorial! Thanks so much.
Use customer service to help get a spring and watched the video while I did it. It took me around an hour to start up and breakdown. Great video appreciate the well documented process and explanation.
This Gentleman is an excellent instructor. He should be at a university. Or at least a quality trade school. Thank you sir.
Excellent tutorial. I ordered the parts needed off your website. They arrived in three days. The total repair took me me less than an hour. Thank you.
Just fixed my mother in laws springs! Second time you have helped me! God bless 😊
YOU ARE THE MAN! just ordered my bars and torsion spring set... your video made me CONFIDENT I can repair my set up BY MY SELF! kudos to u brotha! u deserve a RAISE!
I watched several DIY pieces in fixing my door and this one was THE best.... Loved the line: The File "is your new best friend". lol
Excellent tutorial!
I'm mechanically inclined and have my own welding shop, but this removed any apprehension about doing this procedure.
Thank you!
As a matter of fact, I ordered the springs, then searched for a video and realized I ordered them from your company!!
I'm in great hands 👍
Excellent video. Bought springs from your company and received them fast. With the help of this video, install was a breeze!
Excellent video, helped me out of a jam!! Note guys, if you don't fully adjust the springs 30 1/4 turns the cables will keep falling off the drums and tangling each time you open the door beyond a certain point, causing you to start all over - don't be afraid, the resistance becomes extreme after about 20+ but keep going to 30 regardless!!!
If you’ve been watching videos on how to deal with torsion springs, this is is, stop watching. This guy is all you need. Even before this video, watch his measurements video on torsion springs, best one I’ve found. He makes it so easy but you have to have all your senses, don’t get distracted and you’ll be fine.
Mr. Miller was able to do this today because of your very specific step-by-step video. He figures we saved over $500 .. which we didn’t have. But it was your particular video that guided him through the process. Thank you so very much. Well done!
Excellent video! Luckily first and only video I watched! I've never worked on a garage door or spring before. Easy to do watching video prior and during install! Thank you!
Great illustration and education of how to install broken springs. watched your video and bought the replacement springs by sending a pic to you guys.installed it as recommended and it worked great.thank you for the knowledge.
Thanks, excellent video. Removed all fear from this diy project. Felt confident after viewing.
Great video to install the high cycle springs Express Door Parts designed and shipped quickly. A great experience overall and hundreds of $$ saved. Thanks!
Thanks to your video, I saved money by replacing myself my broken garage door spring. Thank you very much.
great video! sent you a picture and you identified the proper spring, ordered, installed, Saved many hundreds of dollars. Thanks!!
The best garage door spring video on CZcams! Express Garage Door Parts came to the rescue. Thanks so much, guys. Good price and excellent support.
Just replaced my springs on my door after watching this video. Saved me so much time and was perfect. Thank you for this video for saving me time and money.
After seeing how great this guy's videos are - from sizing to installing - I bought a torsion spring kit from his company. Arrived today, installed it in an hour. Saved me money, time (appointment), and I learned some useful knowledge. Thanks!
I have rebuilt a few garage door motors and replaced gears, this will be the first time to do the springs, thank you for the video awsome easy direct to the point.
This helped me every step of the way. Did not want to pay someone and take off work. Took it apart, ordered parts, installed after work. All done and working.
I wish I would have watched your vidio first before attempting to replace my springs. Unfortunately I watched another one and they skipped an important step that cost me hours of frustration. I eventually watched your video and redid the entire process and it only took me 20 minutes to get it done right. Thanks.
So glad I watched this video. On my rental's garage, the bracket between the two springs that attaches to the wall decided to rip itself free. I spent $20 on some winding rods and longer lag bolts and repaired it myself. After worrying half the day about making the repair, it turned out to be super easy.
I followed his instructions and now my garage door works 😊 great video thanks
Thanks for the video. I'm mostly handy and replaced my torsion springs in about 90 mins from start (getting tools, removing old springs) to finish (testing and putting tools away). Laptop and your video at my side - pause/do/play/repeat. My center bracket wasn't like yours so it didn't hold the bar in place very as I removed/replaced items. Also, I watched the left cable instructions about 10 times until I let it play to see your right side instructions were much clearer (verbally and visually). I wish they were reversed. Overall, fantastic job. And thank you for saving me several hundred dollars and a few days wait for a tech to arrive.
Wanted to thank you for the video. Yours was so good l didn’t watch any of the others. I went to your website telling me how to measure spring wire diameter, length and coil ID ordered both springs and draw bars. Had them replaced in no time! Thank you guys, you are appreciated!
I did it! And only thanks to this video. I bought my spring from those guys, too. It was here the next day. I am very happy with how this all went.
This video was perfect! Our garage door is now fully up and running. Thank you very much!
Perfect video. Put in an order for springs on Sunday and was able to complete the work in 1hr30m using this video as a guide.
You are a life saver, my friend 💜💜👏👏🙏🙏
Thank you for your video. We followed it to a 'T" and it made changing our springs a breeze. Saved us money too!
Replaced my broken torsion spring after watching this video. Works perfectly. Thank you!
I agree, this is the best video I have seen to date on the replacement of garage door springs.
Excellent job my friend!!!
Great video. Had to hurry up and get the door working again as we have a handicapped person who can only get out thru the garage in a wheelchair. Appreciate it!
This video saved me $$$. I just replaced my mismatched (and 1 broken) torsion springs with the kit I bought from EGDP. a giant thank you!!!
Well, now I have a garage door guy. Found this video which was perfect - called Avery at Express Garage Door Parts, order placed within 5 minutes; replacement springs and cables at my doorstep in less than 48 hours. Took me less than 2 hours to change out cables and springs; door works flawlessly and I have Avery to thank. WIsh most tutorials were as detailed and explanatory as this!
I want to thank you for this video. It was all I needed for my son and I to replace our spring and cables.
Get a File. This was the magic I found here, almost impossible to slide the main tube before I filed the bumps down. I'm grateful!
Ive done this in years past ..you just made my replacement tan=his time the easiest ever.. safest as well.. great video.
Thank you! You really made an intimidating job easy. No fluff, just how to do it quick and safely.
Just replaced 2 springs on a 16x7 garage door. Followed your video step by step. Worked out great. Thank you!
Excellent video. Replaced my springs and rollers in a few hours and saved over 200$. Buy the parts from thier website! Everything in the big kit is what I needed and even replaced a few other parts included in the kit. Went so smooth. Thanks.
Thanks, Express Garage Door Parts. Very clear and easy to understand.
Thanks so much! just finished my springs today. I could not have done it without you and done right and I was safe!
Amazing video. I was able to replace my garage spring without any help. Thank you and stay blessed. Love from Texas.
Hi young fella. That is the best video on how to change the springs and adjust a door I’ve seen so far. You’ve very clear and straight on to it. Well done mate. 🦘🇦🇺
This is the best video I've seen. Took a little longer for me but these instructions are fantastic. Door was a little hot so I backed each spring back a half a turn and my garage sounds quieter now.
you just saved me so much hassle and now I know how my garage door works.... your a legend
Called to get the right spring, Avery was very friendly and helpful. Got my door fixed with no issues. Thank you!
One of the most helpful video on how to do this
This was probably the BEST "how to" video I have ever watched. You definitely adhered to the KISS principle and made it so that someone who has never done this before was able to change the springs with no issue what-so-ever. Thank you so much!!!
Agree, best how to video i've seen on youtube ever
Best so far…agree
Great video. As previous commenters have said: you're really knowledgable and right to the point. Thanks for the A+ tutorial.
