- In this step-by-step video I explain how to replace Torquemaster Plus springs on a Wayne Dalton garage door. These garage door springs are very easy to replace when they break, and while some kinds of springs can be dangerous to work on, these are not. Save a bunch of money and replace broken springs yourself! The Torque Master Plus style of spring is in expensive, and only requires basic tools to replace. Don't risk ruining your garage door opener or your safety by ignoring broken springs.

The best video on how to replace it by Wayne Dalson!
Man this is exactly what we needed. Great video man.
Thanks for sharing this video. I just ordered the torque master plus set because I got a broken spring.easy video to follow and to the point .
Thanks for the video. It helped my garage door get itâs smooth mojo back. Both springs were broken. Great job!
Today was the day I replace my garage door and with this video It was done and I saved $500 plus by using this video thank you so much for posting your video
I'm so glad it was helpful!
great video. just ordered my new springs. mine broke this morning after my wife left for work. thank God it did not brake while she was driving under it. cost me $145 with tax and delivery. just waiting for them to arrive now
Hey there...can you tell me where you ordered your springs from? Thanks!
Thank you for the excellent tutorial! I have the same Wayne Dalton system and was able to easily replace the springs after watching you. I like that you left your oops moment in as well. The instructions that came with the new springs were very thorough however, your video was much easier to comprehend. Thanks again sir.
Great, steps and thorough instructions. Good job!!!
PERFECT! Thank you for this. Exactly what I needed.
Dude! You are a fantastic teacher! Thank you so much for this video.
Thank you for blessing us with this extremely easy to follow instructional video. Youâve given me the confidence to try it myself!
Great instructions with demonstration. Make a complex job much easier to do. Appreciate the add on comments on the safety alert which is very important. Very clear video and thank you. I like the end clips with the humor. As a father, I can see you set great positive examples to your children. Way to go Dad.
Excellent step-by-step tutorial. I've always installed the old style (tension spring on each side), but I'm about to buy a new Wayne Dalton door that uses these springs. Just like you, I'm intimidated cause I've never installed these, but after watching your video, I feel comfortable enough to take my time and do it. Thank you for taking the time to show the details and point out the areas of concern for safety. Great job on the video and your spring replacement!
Amazingly clear and precise.. kudos for creating the video
Simply outstanding. I've watched several videos and this one is really good. Thanks for making this. Will save me quite a bit of time and money.
So glad itâs helpful! Iâm happy to answer any questions you run into doing yours. Thanks!
this is extremely helpful
Clear and Concise Instructions! Simply Wonderful! You are so good at teaching your audience DIY! Thank you for saving my Garage Door! I really enjoy your videos. Looking forward to the next ones you do.
Thank you, Angela!
Thank you! I had the first version, but this was still super helpful and motivating. The only issue I ran into was getting the sleeves out. Mine were practically glued in place, but I wound them up using needle nose pliers to twist and slowly yank them out. Afterwards, i trimmed off the damaged twisted parts but I could barely get my sleeves to go back in, but everything I read said they werenât essential except for sound damping, so I trimmed them short when i couldnât get them to go any further. Beyond that hiccup, it was pretty straightforward.
Just did this to our garage door following your steps. Worked perfectly! Thank you so much for the help!
Jeff,please tell me where you buy you springs please sir,thank you
Thanks so much for your video. It helped me replace my springs. The only thing I did different was that I took the drums off prior to bring the bar down the the floor. It saved the hassle of having to deal with the cable ⊠but I couldnât have done it without your video!
Very helpful video for this model, replaced it myself as well! Thank you!
This video was one of the best I've seen for quite some time. High five to your extra helper!
You SIR deserve 1 million subscribers.
Thanks so much for the video. It is just what I need to replace mine.
Great instructions! This video takes all the guesswork out of what could be an intimidating job!!
Glad it was helpful, Philippe!
Improved on the official Torquemaster video. Thank you.
Best video on changing the inside
thanks you also pass it to your son ,is precious skill and confidence for others
OMG! Iâve been working on this for almost 2 weeks now and I got it fixed today!! I cannot believe it! All I had to do was replace a cable. Boy did I learn thereâs no such thing as replacing just a cable. Many trips to Menards for better tools and the right size cables and a drill (because I canât find mine) and having to redo a few things because, well just because, but I can open the door now!! Thanks for the great tutorial.
Thank you! That was a great video. I am having the same issue and just ordered the parts. Keep up with the great info!
I just broke my sping this is exactly what I needed.
Thank you, I do garage door service been doing it for about 2 months. Just got dropped into the field with a figure it out lol. This helped me a lot. Usually we do a torsion change over on these but I got put into a situation weâre I canât. So I need to do some research before I got back. You put my stress to relief thank you lol
Thank you for detailed instructions.
Nicely done. Yes, you made it less intimidating .Thank you for your time
The best, most detailed, no extra be video I've seen. Great job sir! Keep them coming!
Thank you!
Thanks for the information. It was very helpful for my installation.
Amazing video! I was able to change my springs without any problems. Thank you so much for making this. Youâre video quality is awesome and makes it more enjoyable to watch.
Great to hear, Jonathan!
Used your video last night to replace the springs in my Wayne Dalton door. I am pretty handy around the house but have always had a hesitation for garage doors springs. This was a simple job that I feel confident anyone can do by following your lead. Great job.
I'm glad you got it done. Nice job!
Thank you so much, this is such a good detailed informative video. I watched many before watching this is one and none of them were as detailed as this.
Glad it was helpful!
I have the exact same setup as you and thanks to your video it only took a couple hours to replace the springs. Thanks
Nice work!
I am now confident going into replacing my torquemaster spring! Thanks so much and God bless you!
You can do it, Michael! I'm happy to try to answer any questions you run into. Good luck!
Perfect video to show how to replace and work a garage door spring ! This gentleman has a gift of explaining things and should be in some sort of teaching or training professional. I understood everything perfectly and that never happens. Very talented. Thank you
Thanks đ
Best video I've watched out of 5 so far! Incidentally, I was specifically looking for the mistake you made! When taking my left side off, the plastic gear fell out too, and I wanted to see if someone else had ran into it. Great job leaving that part in the video as I'm sure it will be helpful to anyone who does this on their own.
Thanks for the feedback! I like to share my mistakes for exactly the reason you mentioned: If I made that mistake, others certainly will as well. It only helps to show both the mistake and how to correct it. Thanks for watching!
Great explanations on every step. Thanks!
This looks remarkably easy, thankful that this is the door I have. Thanks for the terrific video.
You bet!
Thank you ! Love your DIY and music . Your video very helpful for me . Thank đđŒđđŒ
Fantastic Video! I pre-watched this while replacing the springs on my torque master plus and it was literally step by step. Made me feel extremely confident going into it. Didnât have to read any written instructions. Even down to the gear on the left side falling out lol happened to me as well
Lol-that darn gear on the left is a pesky one. Glad it was helpful to you!
Great instruction video, and way to keep it clean, I like it
Thank you for your video. It was very informative (and I made the same mistake on the gear....head smack). It allowed me to finish my job without any real difficulties. Have a wonderful holiday!!
Hey Daniel - I'm so glad it was helpful! Here's to a better new year!
I've always been afraid of messing with garage door springs, but these were really easy and very safe to replace!
Be careful with those snake springs! ;)
Thank you so much for making this Video.
Thank you for creating this video.
You just saved me a lot of money!...did this myself for the first time and you made it seem easy! Thanks!!
Awesome, JC!
Brother, you are great. Thank you for making this video.
Thanks and welcome!
Just changed mine out here in a sweaty garage in Las Vegas, and this video saved me tons of time and money. Great video! Thanks!! đ
Glad it helped, Perry!
Great video. Looks easy seeing it done first. Thanks
Thank you! Just finished - saved me hundreds of dollars and I learned how it all works along the way.
Glad it helped!
Thank you so much. Iâve been searching all day and had a company coming 3 days from now. So glad I found your video.
You are so welcome!
I wonder if itâs even possible to do the instructions better than youâve done. What an amazing instructional video ! Kudos.
Thanks! Tomorrowâs project! Thanks for the clear instruction and awesome visuals!
Best of luck! I'll be happy to try to answer any questions you run into along the way.
Special shout out to you!
This is by far the most well thought out DIY video that I think Iâve ever seen!
Thanks for making this. I have the same door except itâs a single car garage with a single spring. Thanks to this video, I was able to order the correct parts the first time and get the door working properly again.
Really appreciate you and your son taking the time to make this for us!!
For future reference, the single door setup is exactly half of the double door setup. Minimal differences.
Wow - You've made my day! Thank you very much, and I'm really glad to hear your replacement went smoothly!
Great how-to on replacing these springs. I have to applaud the Wayne Dalton engineers for making a counterbalance system that's much easier and safer to install and service. It may not be as durable as the traditional springs, but these are less expensive.
Thank you. This is exactly what I was looking for. The fact that you made some mistakes, were able to talk and tell us about them was amazing. Many videos do not correct errors or do not talk about possible problems that I may run into. God bless you, keep going. BTW this is my first comment that I post.
Mistakes are just opportunities to learn. Thanks for watching!
The very best instructions.....awesome and slow.....thank you!!!
Glad you liked it!
Oh Man, you are the best. so clear instructions and the steps is really clear. I give you 10/10 +
Wow, thanks!
You've got a gift for instruction. Thanks for putting this video together.
Thanks for watching!
Just wanted to add my thanks for your excellent video. Clear, detailed, yet concise. Perfect emphasis. My single spring let loose and your video was just as applicable to my door. Thanks again.
Glad it helped!
@AmplifyDIY Oh. I got my spring from DDM Garage Door. Their website takes the Wayne Dalton number directly for a perfect match. Also, I used the estimated turns as a guide. I kept tensioning the spring and checked the door after a few turns. I kept going until the door opened as it should. As long as I was in the ball park of the estimate, I knew I was OK. This way I never had to take turns out.
Thank you again for taking the time and being thorough!
My pleasure! And Thank YOU!
Such a great video. Great clear instructions. Just finished replacing mine. Thank you sir.
Glad it helped!
Great instructions calm and very informative, absolutely the best I've seen, by far!!!!
Thank you!
Thankyou so much for this "how to video". My garage door broken spring problem is directly explained. I got my new springs & fixing it soon.
Glad it helped, Ken!
This was probably the best instructional video Iâve seen on the internet. The little bits of insight and small suggestions were perfect. I hope youâve done other videos, if you havenât you should.
Thank you, Chris! I have a whole channel full of other how-to and DIY videos on all kinds of topics. Thanks for the feedback!
Thank you! Great video and exactly what I needed to finish the job.
Great to hear!
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT! Wayne Dalton should pay you for how well you did this video instructions! Followed step by step to the T! HELLUVA JOB! đđŸ
Really glad it helped you. Thanks!
WOW!!! so well explained it. didactic and very clear, thank you very much for the video
Great instructions. I ordered my spring from the place you suggested. Installation was easy and the door works again. Thanks so much!
You're welcome!
Just came across your video, excellent presentation and description. I just experienced the same problem and Iâm about to order the springs. Thanks
Sorry for the late reply - I hope your spring replacement went well!
Your video presentation is excellent. This will save me so much money! đđ
Thank you, THANK YOU, T H A N K YOU! For your video, it's very well done. I didn't know an internal spring assembly existed on home garage doors until my son-in-law and daughters broke. đĄ Now I get to replace the springs at my daughter's home and help them save a few bucks. Did I say...THANK YOU!
Very good and clear instructions. No need for the paper instructions included with the springs other than to determine amount of sling turns. Thanks a lot
Nice job getting yours replaced, Chris!
Dude, this instruction video is absolutely amazing. I would give you 10 stars if I could. I now feel like I'm ready to tackle this challenge. Thank you so very much, well done!!!
Hey, thanks! Iâm really glad you found it helpful!
howd it go??
Well that made it easy for me to understand and I feel confident that I can do this. Now to order the new springs.
Itâs really not hard at all! Iâm happy to answer any questions you run into with your replacement. Good luck!
Awesome video!! Thank you. I had mine fail today so I canât wait to fix it myself!!!
You got this!
Successfully replaced our springs with the help of this video. These instructions took away much of the apprehension we had taking on this repair. Well done!
Great job!
I just used this video to replace my Torquemaster Plus spring. It worked great and was immensely helpful. Thanks!
Glad it helped!
There are good instructional videos and then there is this one, I cannot find any situation that could arise during this process that you donât cover, fantastic video!
Thank you, Birquah!
Wow, what a great video with excellent step-by-step instructions! Thanks so much for sharing! I feel a lot better about replacing my own broken springs now.
You can do it!
