Understanding the Mechanics: Types of Garage Door Springs

Garage door springs are crucial components that counterbalance the weight of the door, making it easier to open and close. There are primarily two types of springs used in garage doors, each with its own unique characteristics and applications:

Torsion Springs

Torsion springs are commonly found mounted above the garage door opening. These springs are characterized by their robustness and durability, making them well-suited for heavier garage doors. Their design also offers a safety advantage; in the event of a breakage, the spring tends to remain on the bar, reducing the risk of injury or damage.

Extension Springs

On the other hand, extension springs are installed on either side of the garage door, stretching along the tracks. These springs are ideal for lighter doors. Although more cost-effective, extension springs require careful handling due to their tendency to snap if broken. To mitigate this risk, they are often paired with safety cables, which help contain the spring and prevent it from becoming a projectile.

Understanding the types of garage door springs is essential for proper maintenance and when considering repairs or replacements. It's crucial to seek professional repair services to safely restore your garage door's functionality.
