Understanding Garage Door Spring Types
Residential garage doors use two major types of spring systems and we at Reliable Garage Doors are familiar with them both. Torsion springs are those that are mounted on a steel rod, usually above the door, and they work by rotating to provide the lifting force needed to balance the weight of the door. This is the most common type of spring used in residential garage doors. Extension springs, on the other hand, are those that are mounted horizontally along the tracks and stretch to provide the lifting force needed to balance the weight of the door.
Warning Signs Your Springs Need Attention
Every garage door spring is subject to wear and tear and will eventually fail after a long period of service. The warning signs of a failing garage door spring are as follows, a loud snapping or banging noise coming from the garage area, the garage door is unusually heavy when manually lifted, the garage door is opening crookedly or unevenly, and there are gaps or stretches in the springs as well as the garage door opener straining to lift the door.
