Ordered a spring after watching this video and received everything needed for way less than anywhere else. The customer service is also top-notch.
Thanks
All instructional videos should be like this one. No blabbing, bad jokes, etc. Concise and to the point. Thank you!!
CZcams is almost unbearably draining with useless information and uneducated humor. These are the videos I enjoy most. Not useless music intro with like share subscribe blah blah blah. Quality informative period
Spot on with your comment 👍😀👍
And nopolitics
AND no politics.please.
@@charliebright8027 Absolutely!
These guys are excellent. Ordered my springs on a Tuesday night (watch the video on spring measurement as well), and had them sent overnight as I had a car stuck in the garage and I didn’t want to risk injury manhandling the door. Shipping label was created by 6AM the next morning and the springs were on my doorstep Thursday. Watched the video three or four times, then played it back in sections as I did it. Took about an hour and I know nothing about these doors except they open and close. Saved me at least $200. My kit came with both springs, the winding bar, and a new steel center bearing. I will recommend these guys to everyone!
Thanks Rich, glad we could help out
10 years later and the video is still relevant, thank you!
Thank You
That vice grip to prevent the torsión shaft from falling is top notch 👌
Thanks it does really help out
I never comment on You Tube videos, but this one was great. Saved me time, frustration, and $$. Saved my wife from hearing a lot of cussing too. Thanks!!!!
Thank you! Ten year old video still helping people like me. Way easier than I thought
Thanks and yes that is the goal to explain it so it is easy. Glad I could help
Kyle
So glad to hear that our videos help out so many people. Obviously we hope that the youtube community appreciate us sharing the info enough to decide to purchase from us, but at the end of the day it is really great to think that we helped someone be able to help themselves out of a pickle. Let us know if we can help you again in the future.
9years later and still helping!
@@virgilcol thanks for that brother.
Great video. I was able to watch it and repair my garage door. No distracting music. Straight to the point. Thank you. You are a life saver...
With your help I fixed my own garage torsion springs !! 🙏 a 350+ dollar job came out to 70 out of my own pocket & work. 👏 THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
You are welcome and so glad we could help
Kyle
This video is invaluable when it comes to replacing garage door tension springs, picked up springs from Menards and completed this job on double springs in about an hour. I went back and forth to the video and did exactly what was stated and now our garage door is easy to lift manually and works great with the electric opener. Can't say enough on how happy our family is for doing this DIY job. Thank you for your professionalism and great instructions in helping me get this job done in 1 hr!
Thank you sir, I appreciate it!
I am wandering why the spring which is not broken has to taken from torsion bar.
Only one spring is broken, should both be changed?
@@kartarbaweja5264 Since they are likely same age - best to replace both at once. Otherwise the other spring could break next month and you would be doing the job again.
Please DO NOT stand and wind like this guy is doing it PLEASE for your own good stand off to the side.
The only dislikes are the repairmen. Watching the very informative walkthrough helped me save hundreds of dollars, try something I’ve never done before and fix my garage. While I was at it I replaced some other parts from another walkthrough. Thanks for the video!
Ya it's because people can seriously hurt themselves doing this. It's dangerous.
@@andrewm8063 People hurt themselves doing the most mundane of things, so your point is moot. This isn't dangerous if you have more than a couple of brain cells to rub together.
God bless you brother and your team! Thank you very much for teaching me how the odds and ins of fixing my door and saving me bunches of my hard earn bucks to go back to my house and kids❤
I hope youtube is monetizing this video, you deserve it
Kyle. You saved me $200 by doing it myself. Shipped fast and videos are very informative. Would buy from again! Thank you!
Thanks Edward!
So many kind comments! Trying to keep my feet on the ground and my head from swelling. :)
Hahaha... whats it like being famous Kyle? Great advice, my wife just broke one of ours. We got a quote to fix it for $450.00, so thankyou you've just saved my bacon.
Hey man they'll put ya on a pedestal today in the pit next week keep crushing
@@oletom6970 true! I just go do my thing and try to help people and it all seems to work out. Thanks
@@diygaragedoorparts
Yes sir and I appreciate that help saved a bundle replacing my own springs
You should try to answer the phone if this is you on the video or if its your company.
Done! You just saved me about 350 bucks. 30 minute job. I owe you a beer.
I will gladly take you up on it lol
Thanks!
I loved this How To Video Save Money Replacing Your Garage Door Springs - 2023 tutorial, it was a very useful learning!
I'll pile on with most of the other posters here, and let you know that if is the first video you were fortunate enough to watch, STOP looking around now. This video is incredible clear, concise, and to the point. GREAT VIDEO!
Great service. Kyle walked me through sizing my springs by responding immediately to my email on a weekend. I also liked the free package of winding bars, cables and center bushing. Parts arrived quickly and exact to order. Real value in doing business with Kyle at DIY garage door parts.
My garage door broke, so I tracked down this video. I ordered the parts from the website (at a relative bargain, might I add), and awaited the parts. I watched tracking, and the parts almost made it here, then mysteriously went back (Fed Ex's fault...not Kyle's). When I notified Kyle of the issue, he immediately shipped me the parts again. I received them and successfully (and easily) replaced the parts and the door is working better than it ever has. Kyle and his company are awesome! This is such a rarity today, and I can't thank him enough. Customer service at its finest! Thanks Kyle!
Thanks Kelly I appreciate that the compliments and your understanding! I am glad we could help out with the situation and help out with your garage door. Let us know if there is anything we can help with in the future.
@@diygaragedoorparts who sells these springs?? Where do i get them? Please answer
@@rocioperez8241 we do at www.diy-garage-door-parts.com
@@diygaragedoorparts8206 oh ok thanks for your prompt reply
Very informative. Not quite sure who those 115 people who disliked this video unless they were garage door repairmen
My spring broke. Found this. I'm now a youtube expert.
I sure wish all DIY videos followed your format. I'd be King of All Trades, not just a Jack! 2 thumbs up.
Thanks
Very informative. Not quite sure who those 115 people who disliked this video unless they were garage door repairmen. LOL
BIGPOPRL haha true, one of our competitors purchased a bunch of thumbs down on us and one other competitor that we are friends with. some people want to take cheap short cuts instead of just doing things right and with any ethics. thanks for the compliments and let us know if we can help out with anything.
Probably were, mostly because you shouldn't be touching torsion springs. In 20 years, I've never seen a homeowner do this right, and 2 lost use of their hand. And with the way this jackass is showing you how to do it, you'll be at it for hours just trying to get the door to go up straight. Goodluck with that lol.
SammyM00782 goes up very straight bro. Just put the same tension on each cable when locking down your drums. Have been doing multiple spring repairs per day and same with all of our techs for more than 13 years. Never have a problem if you follow the steps.
Yeah I guess you are right. I'm going to head back out to the garage and take those springs back off. When can you come over and install them for me. I can pay with tacos.
Yeah, right. I've watched a bunch of these videos and it's pretty straight-forward. I'm guessing that, even at 70 years old, I can do it correctly and safely the first time.
Hands down the BEST DIY Garage Door Spring Repair ANYWHERE!! Kyle is the MAN!
Thanks, I really appreciate it
Kyle
Great video, with the help of your other video, "How To Measure a Garage Door Torsion Spring to Order Replacement', I was able to replace both of my springs and get my garage back up and running!
Thank you!
We really appreciate it and we are glad we could help out.
I found this about 8 years ago and it taught me to do it myself. I saved hundreds replacing my own springs!
Thanks Mike
I just finished repairing my garage door spring. Followed everything in this video and had no problems repairing it. Used the website for parts. Followed instructions for figuring out what spring I needed. Everything came out perfect. Thank you guys for saving me hundreds of dollars.
Thanks we really appreciate the support!
Thanks Kyle! Had a spring break, jumped on CZcams and found your video. Shipping from your website took a day to South Carolina. Just finished up a few minutes ago and the door is working better than ever.
I appreciate it!
Excellent. I was able to get new springs and put them in less than 2 hours. Saved me a bundle.
Only those Who determine to Save some money or don't have much and very handyman..👍👍
Thank you for this great video. I do every job I can myself and never knew how this was done. Thank you for the education.
Best video on how to change a broken garage door spring
Thanks!

Watched this Video in Oct 2022. Straight to the point, no blabbing, no comedy and the speaker was looking into the camera when appropriate. GOOD basic knowledge imparted for me to do the DIY repair and save $$. Other serious youtubers should learn from this presentation. Thank You.
Great video. Easily understood made replacing my garage door springs simple. Thank you
Thanks Gregg glad we could help out!
Again, as in measuring garage door torsion, and now garage door springs, I have to compliment this individual (Kyle Hogge) for being so thorough and informative in his easy-to-understand instructions. Thanks again, Kyle.
+Pan Baccha Thanks I am glad it helped out. Feel free to reach out if you need anything in the future. Kyle
Thank you for sharing all imformation! It help me a lot, I will do it myself in the future.
I am about to install a 10x10 roll-up door in the barn by myself, and this video gave me the world of confidence I can install my own door and save $4000 for installation charges. Great presentation.
All instructional videos should be like this one, No blabbing, bad jokes, etc. Concise and to the point. Thank you!!
And to think the "professionals" had me all afraid to do this on my own. After your video, time to take down my garage door and texture my unfinished ceiling and walls. Thanks for this video dude.
My local Overhear Door center told me the same song & dance and only their tech at $450 was qualified to replace those tension springs...I replace the springs, rollers and lift cables for about $150 bucks!
This video is informative, detailed and straight to the point. I really appreciate your help. Thank you Kyle!
LOVED the video! I didn’t want to pay extra for someone else to do this. A quick search and found you. I’ll be calling tomorrow! Very informative.. thanks
Thanks Vic
Sir. This is the best efin diy video i have ever seen. Some videos are like "First thing is to take a nice hot shower, have a good breakfast...blah blah blah."..... Your video is perfect. No bullshit, to the point, and very informative. I can't thank you enough Seriously!! THANK YOU! I knew nothing about garage doors until the day i watched your video and installed my new springs.
Thanks man. This was a good before and during video to keep me from missing anything that might hurt me.
Thank you for this video. I have never changed the springs before and I watched this video twice and changed both my springs in 40 minutes. Piece of cake!! Awesome video!!!!!
Great instructional video. I was able to replace my springs last night in less than 25 minutes! THANK YOU!!!! - rev.
Great video! This is how a DIY video is done. Concise, to the point, no music or ridiculous angles showing how artistic you are. Thanks!
Yes this is a good tip, thanks for the feedback. The trick I like is on every turn, I feel that the bar hit the bottom in the winding cone hole before I put any pressure on that bar. But tape works too :)
Thanks again!
Thanks Kyle, excellent easy to understand video. I replaced mine with just a small issue and when I contacted you on a Sunday , you replied quickly to help me. You truly do support your customers. I will be telling all my contractor friends in the Lake Tahoe area.
anthony vanucci not a problem just glad to help out. I appreciate the kind words. I really appreciate the support of the business!
Thanks Anthony, glad to help brother
I couldn't have succeeded without the video and a call to there help number. What a pleasure to talk with someone and get a caring person. I had wound the spring 34 times for my 8 foot door and it wouldn't go down. Kyle's team was very helpful with helping me figure the problem out. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!
Thanks Kent!
THANK YOU! Every step was exactly as you showed, made life a lot easier for me
Great Job explaining Every Detail yep.., i glad i selected your CZcams Video Instruction., Fix , Repairs. I got work to do on my Garage Door now.., -thanks.!!
Worked just like you showed. Thanks a lot!!!
This video is the best. I bought two springs and had them installed in about an hour this afternoon. Made in USA and even better this company is local to me. 5-star 100% great product and service.
Watched the video, ordered the springs from Kyle, but they didn't arrive after a few weeks. I emailed him and he immediately sent out a second set of springs (arrived the next day). Turns out FedEx dropped the ball the first time. It just took me an hour or so to install them exactly like he said. Door works perfectly now. Awesome work, Kyle!
Very helpfull video. I followed your instructions and it worked fine. Thank you!
Thanks for the clear intructions! Between this video and the help from your website on how to select the correct spring, I did this repair myself in about half an hour. It was great that you threw in new cables as well, because my old ones had kinks in them and tended to come off. With your help, this was an easy, inexpensive fix.
Thanks Zach, I am glad that I could help and appreciate the purchase on our site. Let me know if I can ever help in the future.
Just replaced both springs and If you follow this man direction, you will not have any issues what so ever. Once it was completed, I had to level the door which was no big deal. A thumbs up "how to" Kyle.
best video of this...thanks kyle...well put together, lighting, audio, etc..."it's pointing at ya" lol
Thanks Kyle! Had a spring break, jumped on CZcams and found your video. Shipping from your website took a day to South Carolina. Just finished up a few minutes ago and the door is working better than ever. I also replaced my center bushing with a bearing I ordered from your site. Door sounds much quieter opening and closing. Couldn't be more pleased with my purchase and will definitely recommend your site to friends and neighbors!
Jason Scarbrough thanks Jason we appreciate your support! I hope your family has a good Thanksgiving!

I am sure those disliked the video are the garage door repairmen. One of the springs on my garage door was broken. I called the guy. He came and gave me a quote for 700$ two new springs and labor. I was angry. Came on amazon, bought two brand new springs for 130$. Followed this video. It was easy. If I see you Kyle, I'll buy you a really good coffee. Thanks again!
This video saved me $$$. I was able to follow step by step with no confusion. When I was done everything worked great. Thank a million!
Waited a few weeks before giving review. Great experience! Home owner with a 3 year old 7ft door. One spring broke. Got both with tension bars and steel wires for pulleys. Kyle was very helpful throughout the process. I actually found the springs half off from the large retailers. I value his advise and experience. Springs were of much higher quality than what was installed 3 years ago from contractor. Will strongly advise for all your garage parts and service.
Great video, described perfectly. Thanks for the info.
Your video provided step-by-step instructions on replacing garage door springs, and I must say, I was impressed! You have explained.thanks for sharing this vidio.
This video has been explained everything in detail. It's crystal clear. Thanks for sharing.
Great instructional vid, I also watched the measurement tutorial. Ordered my springs from them. Waited for delivery and installed on my first day off. Many thanks, I had previously paid for this repair before. Saved about $200 doing it myself. Works great now 👍
Awesome thanks for order and we were glad we could help out! 👍
Outstanding video...Thank you so much!
I'm so grateful for this garage door spring replacement video! It saved me a lot of money and gave me the confidence to tackle the job myself. Thank you.
I just installed my tension springs that I received yesterday from FedEx. Kyle is the man to go to for garage parts and he helps you for what you need to fix your garage door. Shipping was very fast. Also thank you for th great price you gave me as well. Watching Kyle's video and doing the spring replacements myself saved me over 350 dollars for a contractor to do it. Thank you again Kyle.
You are welcome!
Absolutely perfect video. Gave me everything I needed to safely change my torsion spring. Thank you!
This saved me big time. Thanks for the video.
Thank goodness for this video , I will attempt to fix our garage door
You guys make outstanding “how-to” videos. Clearly communicated, includes little details that really help with the job, and no nonsense to waste my time. As a teacher I greatly appreciate and respect the efforts and like our video
Thank you I really appreciate it!
Excellent job on the video. Thanks.
thanks!
Yes, 30-31 quarter turns. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Before I watched this video, I was cranked 20 quarter turns and head a noise, so I stopped, but when door open, it only up half way, no more :juice" or stored energy. SO later I did 31 turns and the door ups as it should be.
I give you 6 stars. After watching your video a couple of times I was able install my new spring with in 45 minutes, and it probably saved me at least $400.00 or more.
Thanks brother
What a great content! You explained with such clarity and detail! Garage door spring replacement - How to save money by replacing garage door springs video - 2023. Thanks for the tutorial!!!
Very very good explanation and visual , i got to change mine , but its so hot here in sugar land , after a few minutes ,

You made this job easy!!! Thank you for the east to follow steps video. Great job! Plus you saved me nearly $200 if I would have hired a door company to come out and do this.
$350 in Miami
Thank you, I knew nothing about garage doors and was able to switch out my spring from watching this informative video. Thank you.
Thanks Mark
thank you very much! This video was very useful!
Pablo Ocasio You are most welcome
Thanks brutha! That was easy as fishin'
By far the best DIY garage door torsion spring video
I found this video via a search, went to the site and ordered needed parts using their ery detailed guidelines. When the parts came, everything went exactly as shown here. I had this same job done professionally about 10 or so yers ago, and it cost over $250 then. Who knew the secret is a pair of bars made from steel round stock! Not only was this an easy job, but winding the springs is a fair substitute for inside jab work with a boxing bag. All that aside, these guys are seriously helpful. No telling how much I saved in today’s costs.
Thanks, I glad it has helped out.
Thanks you for your video hepled and saved me a lot of time, trouble and money.
Ron Gibson no problem we are glad it helped out!
This is a simple and perfect video about Garage door spring replacement ,I really needed this information and I'm glad that I found it. Thanks for the video.
Hands down the best video on changing Garage Door Springs PERIOD
Perfect video - brobably - THE BEST
I’ve used this video twice now. Thank you!
Watched about 7 videos to make sure I knew what I was doing, bought a spring from DIY Garage Door Parts (after getting a quote for $600 from a local tech) and installed it in an hour and a half. So glad I did!!
Best how to video on You Tube on how to change springs
Thanks Ruth let us know if we can help in the future
Excellent video ! Not a handy person here but at least know what has to be done !
Thank you!
Busted a spring this morning coming home from work. This is a first, time to order some parts.
well, howd it go?
ProfessionalDad he died
this is the best video to change the torsion spring ,thanks.
If you follow his instructions it's easy. Mine was very rusty so had some issues getting parts to move but after cleaning up I was done. Had to add another turn to get it raise correctly. DONE...
THE STEEL SHOP I appreciate the feedback and glad it helped out.
Ordered my parts from you guys. Few days later there here and I got my door back working. Thanks
no problem
great video but the recommendation on number of turns was off for my door it looks like. I have an 8 foot door, I put 34 turns on it as recommended at 8:38, when I released the carriage to check tension, it came up too fast.
so take the turn loading recommendation with a grain of salt. I'd have gone with about 20 turns based on how fast my door just launched into the air.
Other than that, this video is perfect on how to do it, the process. No extra waiting, it's edited very well and easy to follow. The parts I got were perfect and fit right on.
Update: As long as I live, I will never buy a garage spring from anyone but Kyle Hogge as long as I live. SUPERIOR service and attention to detail, even with my wrong springs.
Just watch the video, and buy the stuff from Kyle. Fantastic customer service.
Gone Ballistic you have the wrong springs on your door. The correct Springs for your door is critical in the way it functions. That is why we have instructional videos on measuring your springs. Also if you would have put only 20 quarter turns on your setup it would have been heavy as lead when it opened to the halfway point (not enough turns) and if you would have lifted the door like that with your opener cables would have came off of the drums and you would have had a huge mess. When a door does not balance the the turn recommendations it means you have the wrong springs .
Yeah I hate that that happened. If the old owners put the wrong Springs on this is definitely a possibility. You could also weigh the door with no spring tension on it and get me the height and the drum size and I can calculate it for you if you would like.
I'll try and figure out how to do it. I think I found the issue: the springs are perfectly tensioned at 21 turns, but the springs are totally unloaded at 3/4 height, and then the cable comes off the drum.
what do you need to calculate the right springs? Just the weight of the door? And what is your exchange policy? My guess is I'm going to get killed on return shipping, these babies are *heavy*.
I checked my spring I took off, the measurements are the same as the new spring, it's just the new spring is much stronger......
Gone Ballistic I would bet you purchase a larger wire diameter than you old ones. We do accept returns. Your best option is to remeasure the old springs, also it would not hurt to weigh the door and get the drum size too. we will calculate it for you.
just weighed the door:
237 lbs
5" drum
8 foot door.
Thanks very much for putting this up. It was more helpful than the Dura-lift video when it comes to re-assembly procedure.
Your video provided step-by-step instructions on replacing garage door springs, and I must say, I was impressed! You have explained everything in such a clear and concise manner that even someone like me, who doesn't have much experience with DIY projects, could understand it easily.
awesome, saved me 150 or more! thanks
