Garage door spring replacement in Annan: common questions

Torsion or tension: which does my door have?

Look above the opening. A steel shaft running across the head of the door with one or two coiled springs on it means torsion springs. If the springs run front to back beside the horizontal tracks, or sit in the vertical side frames, the door uses tension springs. Many standard domestic doors use tension springs; larger, heavier and timber doors and doors with a pass door usually use torsion springs.

Does the spring need to match the door?

Yes. The spring is sized to the door weight, the drum or pulley and the track layout, so wire size, length and diameter matter. We identify the right spring before fitting.
