Balancing a Garage Door - FAQ from AJ's Garage Door Service of Oro Valley How to know if the garage door spring is balanced properly? Disconnect the operator by pulling the red release cord with door fully closed. Open the door halfway by hand and let go of the door. The door should pretty much stay in the same position, although some slight drifting may occur. If the door wants to drop or if it opens on it’s own, the garage door springs should be adjusted by trained and experienced garage door service technicians.
