Opening a garage door with a broken spring can be dangerous and difficult, as the spring is responsible for balancing the door’s weight. It’s best to avoid doing this manually and call a professional to replace the spring safely.

A garage door's spring helps counterbalance its weight, so when it breaks, opening the door becomes hazardous. Forcing the door open can lead to damage or injury. The safest course of action is to contact a professional to replace the spring. Attempting a DIY fix without proper tools and experience could worsen the problem or result in accidents. Regular spring maintenance can prevent these issues.
