What does a spring replacement involve in Stroud?

How long do springs last?

Springs are rated in cycles, one open and one close. Several manufacturers rate their springs at about 25,000 cycles, while some standard springs are rated lower. In everyday use many springs need replacing after something like eight to twelve years, sooner on a door that opens many times a day.

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.

Which options are available in Stroud?

  • Rebalance and cable checkDoor set to stay part-open; cables checked at the same time.
  • Correct sizingMatched to door weight.
  • Single or pairReplace one or both springs.
  • Torsion or tensionBoth spring systems covered.
