Garage Door Springs, also knowns as Garage Door Torsion Springs and Garage Door Spring Replacement, are one of the most important components of your garage door. If a spring breaks you need to replace the broken Garage Door Spring to keep your Garage Door operating properly.
Torsion Spring make a Garage Door easier to lift or open. When a Garage Door closes, tension builds up. When the Garage Door opens, the tension is released. Torsion Spring also act as safety mechanisms to stop doors from falling on you accidentally. A Garage Door with broken spring should not be opened or closed using an automatic opener. In an emergency, you can lift the door manually.

Things to Know about Garage Door Torsion Springs:
(1) Torsion springs must be measured while unwound or your dimensions will be incorrect.
(2) To match your previous torsion spring size exactly, you will need to measure the wire size, the inside diameter, and the length. The wire size and inside diameter are very important, this is where most mistakes are made. The torsion spring length doesn’t have to be completely precise (anything within a half inch will be fine).
(3) The number of turns is based on the height of the door and the size cable drums that you have (the rule for 7′ doors is 7.5 turns and 8′ doors is 8.5 turns and adjust from there)
(4) The direction of the wind on the torsion spring is opposite the side that it goes on (The left wound spring is installed on the right hand side of the door, when your standing inside your garage looking out)
