Garage Door Torsion Springs

Garage doors can be categorized according to springs that they use. There are garage door torsion springs, and extension springs. Torsion springs are located above the garage door. When there is no space for torsion springs, extension springs are used instead, and these are located attached to the side of the doors.

When repairing a garage door, springs are the most dangerous parts to replace. When replacing torsion springs, it is highly recommended that it be left to experts and professionals. When they break during replacement, it can cause undue damage and injuries. Accidents have been known to happen, even with professionals doing the replacement.

Among other things, spring replacement also requires balancing afterwards. This is another activity that requires training and understanding of door opener operations. A door is not raised and lowered by the power of the motor alone. The motor controls the movement, but the power is from the spring. The spring acts like an elevator's counterweight. The door is neutrally balanced, and stays in place. Only a slight force is needed to raise or lower it. A properly balanced spring ensures that it can be opened or closed manually almost without any effort.
