This is one of the best videos on this topic I have seen to date. Thank you for presenting all the necessary information so clearly and also pointing out the key safety concerns. The only reason I, or others, may need to watch any additional videos is because I am also replacing the end bearings. Although that was not specifically covered in this video, I am handy enough to figure it out. There may be others who would appreciate if you expanded this video to include the replacement of the end bearings (and maybe zoomed in on properly placing the center bearing). Overall this is by far my favorite video on this topic.
As an above average DIYer with skills enough to hire myself out for any number of home repairs and improvements (100% UA-cam educated in all areas of skill I possess) I can say this is hands down the best instructional video I have ever watched. Kudos and thanks for the lesson!
I feel like I can work installing garage doors. That is how good you are as an instructor.
Followed the video and done in 1 hour. No issues, no yelling or swearing, no throwing tools. You made it simple. Thanks
Thank you! We are so happy to now serve over 1.4 million homeowners to save money by replacing their own garage door springs and saving real $$.
OK first I want to say is that this video is priceless!!!!! I purchased the new springs from you all, watched this video stopping it as I went and as other people have stated, you have a customer for life. Thank you for this service, you saved me a bunch of money. Now the last thing I want to comment on is the number of thumbs down is ridiculous, probably from your competitors and others who are jealous that just want to hate and hate unjustified. Again thank you!!
Competitors must have nothing better to do! It's okay, because we focus on being the best and have done a great job so far. Enjoy! www.garagedoornation.com/products/torsion-springs-kit
You video is BY FAR the best on the internet on garage door repair. After a long, frustrating battle trying to replace the spring on my broken garage door, I finally found your video. 45 minutes later the garage door was repaired and working beautifully. Thank you!!

Great to hear! Another happy customer of the garage door spring replacement kit www.garagedoornation.com/products/torsion-springs-kit
This was probably the most helpful video I've watched on youtube.
Thanks!!!
Thank you, Dwayne! It means a lot to us.

Exactly who thumbs down this video. It covered pretty much everything. Was helpful to me
People who thumbs downed it probably got ripped off by this scam company. Don't buy parts from them. LONG shipping, they don't ship your entire order, and once you've purchased, they block you on the "sales" number (which is just an 877 number forwarded to "Johnny's" cell phone in Georgia).
This video is EXACTLY what I needed to know to replace my own broken torsion spring. This guy didn't miss a thing I needed to know to do the job correctly and safely by myself and save the cost of a service call. Thank you.
I needed to replace my garage door springs and this is by far the most informative and highly detailed how to videos on youtube. Thank you and Well done.
Bought the parts, studied the information, watched the video (several times), and repaired my broken door spring. Thank you!
This is my first comment at UA-cam as I really want to thank. Just finished spring replacement following this instruction. I watched several video for the replacement and none of them explains and notes about safety like this one. This really made the job easy and safe. I had door balance problem after ~30 quarter turn and had to mail for asking what to do around 11pm and got email answer at 12:30am!!! Incredible customer service and fast shipping. Can't be better!
I ordered my spring from you guys last week. They were a perfect fit. If I would've know this video was going to make the spring installing this easy, I would've had my wife install them. This video is extremely helpful. Thanks bud. I am forever grateful.
Wow, this video is utterly amazing. Great teaching material!!!
This is what makes UA-cam awesome.
Thank you so much for sharing your expertise with the DIYers. Not too many professionals like to show their tricks of the trade to the entire world. After watching your video, replacing a busted torsion spring on my garage door was a snap. Thanks again.
Tom Great video. I purchased the spring from you guys and did the repair in less then an hour. The local guys here in South Florida wanted to charge me 3 times your cost of a the spring you sold me. Easy, Easy Easy and I didn't have to wait all day for a repair guy!!!! Thanks Tom!!!
worked like a charm! only took me about an hour, and saved me $150 - $200!!
That's what we do here at GarageDoorNation.com Enjoy!
the BEST explanation of doing the springs plus so much more.. seriously.. thank you! you saved me money that I didn't need to spend on someone doing it for me.. oh.. great job on describing the number of turns on the springs!
Dude I don't even need springs, this was just interesting to watch. Thanks
Best comment ever!
I just finished installing springs AFTER watching at least 10 different type of videos ...
This the BEST VIDEO EVER regarding this DIY project......
Got it done in 1 hr.....saved at least $ 220 !
That's awesome!
I'm so happy to hear that we could help.
Tom, you took the mystery out of replacing the torsion springs. I am 70 yrs old and live on SS, so any work I can do myself really helps out. I had a co-worker many years ago badly damage his arm when he attempted to replace the springs, so, I was hesitant about taking this job on. But with the correct tools and instruction, I am confident I can do the job myself. Thanks.
This is an excellent demonstration on how to replace garage door springs. Also I like how you told us about what to do as well as how to do the garage door spring replacement the correct way. Thank you for sharing.
I had to comment twice....everything was that good; accurate, reliable, all around solid product and info!!!
Without a doubt, the best HOW -TO video on the subject!
had a spring blow out last night. Watched this and saved myself a couple hundred bucks, EASY, in labor. Thanks for the great video! Took longer to drive across town to get the parts than it did to install them. Take your time and follow these directions and you'll be set. Nice work. Just as an FYI I bought 1/2" round bar at Home Depot and cut it to 18" for the Winding Bars, it was only $5 for the steel. Also, my local shop required me to bring my springs in before they would sell me new ones. That caused me an extra trip... Just an FYI for others.
Really? What an ultra clear video tutorial. You are amazing! Thank you very much. You sold me on this one. Last time I tried changing or "repairing" this issue two of three friends almost got their heads, arms, and legs chopped off. Woohoo now I have you.
Great video and good explanation throughout. Made me confident that this was a DIY project. Purchased a kit from Garage Door Nation and it came with all I needed. The included torsion bars were a little longer than ones in the hardware store and made the winding of the springs very easy. The new brackets and center metal bearing that came with the kit made all the difference with the noise when my door was going up and down. Now it's just the hum of the motor.
Outstanding video. Had a door problem we’re the the tension cables came off due to an obstruction. I simply followed your instructions and in no time my door is back in business. I can thank you enough for the awesome step by step. One can’t go wrong with this video. Many thanks.
HI,NICE JOB,THANK YOU FROM PUERTO RICO.
I ordered a kit from Garage Door Nation on Sunday November 30 and received it on Thursday December 3rd. I had the whole kit installed in a hour and my door works better than when it was first installed! Thanks GDN for a great product and fast shipping!!

+Scott Cooper Woohoo! Thanks for supporting our garage door spring kit www.garagedoornation.com/products/torsion-springs-kit
I bought the parts to replace my garage door springs here and watched the video above twice. The job went just as he explained it. No problems. It was a small challenge to connect the cables to the door because the space there is limited on my door set-up. I will never call a garage door company out to repair this type spring system after completing this job. Job went great!
It took watching 10 spring videos to finally get clarification on the left/right thing, nobody ever says if that is looking from inside the garage or the outside..Thank you, Nice video!!
Outstanding video, one of the best tutorial vids on you tube. I Uninstalled the broken spring and had the new one up in about a hour. Works great and saved 250 bucks by not having the local shop come out. Thank you again. Big time.
Nice guy make this best video for garage door spring DIY. Very detail and professional. Most helpful safety tips step by step. I was scare to replace my garage spring until I watch this video. Now I can do it after I just watched your video once. You just like a angel. thank you.
Thanks so much. My garage door is working and I was able to follow your safe instructions with ease. : )
We followed this video to the "T" . Garage door fixed for under $300 and $200. You got my vote . Very thorough ! Great vid! Very helpful
I was able to fix my garage door broken torsion spring thanks to your parts and video! Thank you so much!!!
Thanks Tom for the instructional video. I placed an order for the 2 spring upgrade on my 7' two car garage door. Your prompt email on my requirements were impeccable. And shipping, very fast. From the time I emailed my two spring upgrade to when my order came UPS at my front door. Took only 2 days. And I didn't even request expedite shipping. Great company.
Tom i have no words to epress my gratitud for your tutorial video very profeccional,well explain,it help me a lot and save me a headache,money ,time thank you TOM YOU ARE THE BEST
This dude is my guy. Tackling our torsion spring replacement this weekend! Safety first! Woohoo!!!!!
The absolute best most professional demonstration of all that are out there. I've done this before and wanted a quick refresher -THIS ONE THIS GUY - on top if it all the way and offers every tip needed, that many others do not mention. Great job man.
Fine job. Clear, concise, no unnecessary chit chat. Thank you!
This is how DIY videos should be. Awesome.
Double Springs, Double Good. My single spring broke, got all the parts to convert to dual spring. 2 hours later I'm done. Excellent instructions and parts. Crappy original (flexi) end brackets replaced and real center bearing instead of plastic. Now I just need to convert my second door. Thanks
No one explains as well as you. I want to thank you for your class and help about doors :)
This video is awesome! Empowered me to replace my tenant's torsion spring myself, saving me several hundred dollars.
That's what we like to hear! Our new bundle kit comes with everything you need to fix your own garage door and save $$$
Great job! Excellent example of a DIY video from a pro with real experience. Organized, detailed, and high quality. Thanks.
This and your video on how to know which spring to buy just saved me $150 in parts and labor! Thanks man, I wouldn't have attempted the repair without this video.
I didn't purchase your kit, but this video was excellent! Thanks so much for this. I was able to find springs in town, follow the very detailed instructions, and complete this job on my own.
One suggestion I'd leave for anyone else attempting this job on your own is to remember both the springs and wheels on the ends have torque and will spin on you as you start the process of taking the bad springs down.
Great video. I got a little hung up on the center bearing replacement, trying to the the sleeve on the bearing to extend into the bracket far enough to actually rest on the bracket. Finally, I just did it like you did in the video, and didn't worry about it. I then realized it doesn't need to actually rest on the bracket, because the springs are bolted so there is no contact between the torsion bar and the bracket. So your video even answered a question before I had to send it. Saved a few hundred bucks for maybe an hour's worth of work. Thank you!
Thanks Garage Door Nation for making this sooooo easy. I got the bundle kit I ordered from you all last week and installed them with no problem. I went ahead and did the conversion to a two spring system since the door I replaced the spring on was a high use entry way, which was probably why it failed relatively soon. I wish I had known it was this simple before when my springs broke and I was charged $260! I'm pretty handy and this was a cake job for me, especially after watching your video. It seems a lot more quiet now too!
+Eric Newkirk Thanks for posting - I am about do go for it myself... My single one broke/
Tom, I really appreciate your video. I didn't need to buy anything to fix my garage door but your video helped me so much after I made a colossal mess of my garage door. I'll be sure to hit your site first if I ever need anything for the door. Thank you!
You wouldn't even know how helpful this tutorial has been for my husband.
Dude, excellent video. This is one of the best tutorials I've seen. Great job.
Best video on a really simple repair just got this done in two hours and my door works great! I was given an estimate of $359. dollars for one spring I replace both springs and got it done for $135 Thanks for this great video I saved big :)
Thanks for ordering our top-selling garage spring replacement kit! www.garagedoornation.com/products/torsion-springs-kit
THE BEST VIDEO OUT OF ANY INSTRUCTIONAL VIDEOS POSTED
Excellent video. This saved me hundreds on repair of the box truck I use for work. I really like the emphasis on safety.
Thanks for the excellent tutorial video. My garage door torsion spring broke a week a go. I ordered a spring and all the necessary hardware on line. I removed and replaced the spring in a couple of hours. The original lasted 13 years. Hopefully the new one last for a lifetime.
I followed these instructions and viola! 2 hours later had my new springs installed. Excellent video.
This is extremely comprehensive and yet easy to follow and understand. Watched it twice to get into your approach.
Worked great for me. Thanks. Frank
Thanks for an excellent video. This clear step-by-step how-to is one of the best I've seen on any subject.
Great video! I replaced my springs solely on watching this.
Everything I needed to know to replace my spring. Very informative and very detailed. Made the process of replacing my spring very simple. Thank you!
Did this last weekend and had no issues whatsoever. Thanks!
Ordered the kit from you, got it in just a few days, and this video told me everything I needed to get the job done quickly. Anyone can do this and the quality of the product looks to be top notch!
Thanks for ordering our top-selling garage springs replacement kit! www.garagedoornation.com/products/torsion-springs-kit
Thankyou! GREAT tutorial!!! GREAT spring kit!!! After years with a broken spring, it all works like new again!!!
YOUR TIPS ARE GOOD.. SAFETY.. # 1 THANKS...
I wish this guy was my Neighbor! Hands down the best tutorial on how to change out Garage Door Springs,. we spent 460.OO On a company and they did a half assed Job! thanks Friend Merry Christmas to you and yours.
Thanks for the video Garage Door Nation!!! You saved me about 200 dollars from having my local garage door company come and switch out a spring and it wasn't hard at all with your directions. The only thing you missed in the video was be sure to watch which way the springs are wound. Always wind the spring up to tighten or wind it down to loosen. Other than that THANKS SO MUCH!!!! I couldn't have done it without you!
Thanks for your help! You just gave me the confidence to do this job and saved my family some money.
This video rocks- everything in one place one needs to know. Our garage doors is so much smoother and quieter after following these instructions. Thanks!
Really terrific video - thanks. i had to replace a few rotten panels at the bottom as well as the bottom most wood cross support - I was thinking I had to wrestle the spring to keep its tension until I saw the proper way to deal with the spring. Many thanks!
I just want to say thank you for the video. I followed the steps and was able to fix my garage door. Now to be completely honest, I spent the entire time in fear that the spring was going to snap and rip my face off. But, I'm here to say that I got through the entire ordeal unscathed.
Thanks again for the great tutorial!
Hilarious!!
This is without a doubt, the best instructional video on torsion spring replacement. Great job!!
I really appreciate ou guys putting out this video... I just used it for the second time. The first time was on my garage door and it helped me fix the problem very easily. A friend of mine just had an issue with his garage door so I referred back to this same video and just fixed his garage door quickly and without issue. Thank you so much!
Best how to video I've seen. Everyone should learn how to make good tutorial videos like this. Pacing and camera angles were great. Well done. You saved me 200$
Absolutely fantastic video. I bought quality parts from these guys and installed my new springs in less than an hour (pausing the video every minute, of course). Thanks so much.
Michelle Hite umm lol very nice of you to get on the web and brag on your spouse (im guessing on family relationship) or maybe Brint stole his wife's phone that was already logged in and replied on his own comment.
Saved me time and money watching this, true professional at work....thanks
Outstanding video! One of my springs snapped yesterday evening (Christmas Eve, and we don't have a chimney so Santa had trouble getting in the house with the garage door not working!) I am fairly handy but understanding basic physics and the energy stored in a coiled spring had me a bit concerned about trying this on my own. After watching your video though, I am confident that I will be able to replace the springs and not injure myself in the process! Thanks for the attention to detail and the safety tips! I'll be placing an order with you this evening!
Excellent Video. Even with CANCER I was able to follow you step by step down to the number of winds replacing my broken spring. However you must notify your viewers that you must measure your springs in its relaxed state. Other wise IT WORKED spot ON. Thank YOU for posting this video TOM. Thank you so much.
Wonderful to hear. You rock! +Cisco KId Boomsberger
My garage door broke and I had to do exactly this. This video is by far the best video on UA-cam
Wow! Very professional and personable. I can totally understand the whole process. Thank you for such good instructions!!
Great video! Really? 596 thumbs down? Well, the 8.3K views prove the quality information that you have shared. The video on measuring your spring is also very informative.
I’m here because my garage broken spring. Will diy when I get the part. Nice video.
Thanks! This video helped me to replace by broken garage door spring... without killing myself.
Great video, with all the detail needed to explain the task and get it done. Thanks for posting this tutorial.
We are so happy to hear this video was of help to you. Thanks for choosing Garage Door Nation!
Thanks for all the good advice. This was a do-able project but definitely had to pay attention to what you were doing. I followed the advice of the video and it all went well. No damage, impalement, amputations, or bodily injuries of any kind. I call that a good day.
THIS IS A VERY THOROUGH, CUT-TO-THE-CHASE, STEP-BY-STEP VIDEO. GREAT JOB!! It really does put quite a bit of confidence in you for the whole process.
DIY UA-cam videos run the gamut from scary worthless to ones that make an expert out of regular guys like me. Your video is at the very top end of the pack. Excellent video!!! Even though I have replaced plenty of the other kind of springs I had always heard "Never touch a torsion spring, the devil lives in them and all nearby will die" but your video made it very clear and I can now say I can replace torsion springs like a pro!
"Never touch a torsion spring, the devil lives in them and all nearby will die." Ha Ha, I like that!
The video was super easy to follow. I'm 16 and my dad had me watch this and do it myself. It was good, if I can follow through with it, so can anyone else!
Thanks GDN fpr a great How-to. Especially benefited from the specific safety warnings. I had a spring break on a heavy four spring wood door. Ordered a two spring set + the additional two springs from GDN. Major success. Many Thanks!
stevierayb00 thanks for getting your garage torsion spring from us!
Cheesy smile check, great tutorial check. Thanks! Let the changing of the springs begin!
I just installed the new springs. They went on easily since I had already finished all the prep work. The garage door opener does not struggle to open/close the door thanks to the great video you have showing me how to balance the doors..
Next I am installing your insulation kit on my doors. I hope that will make a big difference on the Florida sun radiating through the doors into the garage and reducing the noise I hear through the doors.
lunker012
I love the door insulation. Easy to do but since my doors have hurricane reinforcement bars on them I had to remove and reinstall them. The doors are now insulated but and they are something I did not expect, they are quiet when in use. The insulation baffles the movement and vibration when the doors go up and down. I am glad I did this project.
Had to change mine as one of the springs broke. Thanks for the detailed video and safety suggestions. Had this job completed within an hour.
Excellent video! Very thorough but succinct in providing information needed without the extra time wasting. The only thing that wasn't completely clear is the placement of the bearing when attaching the two springs together at the center support. I assume it is obvious once I look at it.
Awesome tutorial. Makes it easier to listen when you have an articulate teacher like this! Nice job!
One of the best tutorials ever. Keep up the great work.
I don't know the first thing of what I'm looking at, but this video really helped and I solved my garage door problem. I'm still going to call for the professionals though!
This video is outstanding. Fixed my door in about an hour.
