Garage Door Broken Spring
One gentleman had trouble getting his garage door open. He had noticed for a while that the door started to open and shut slower and slower, and there seemed to be a lot of tension whenever he did use it. It was the spring. Somehow, it seemed like an easy fix, but he underestimated the wear and tear that the spring had.
There was no way that he was going to be able to fix this on his own, and there was no way that he could do without the repair.
Springs make it much easier to raise and lower the door. We don't fully realize just how much the garage door weighs because those springs do their job and don't have us lifting the full force of hundreds of pounds.
Most doors have two different types of springs- tension and extension. Extension are long, lighter-weight springs that run perpendicular to the door and are mounted above the horizontal portions of the door tracks. These have safety cables to help contain the spring in case it breaks. The torsion springs are heavy-duty springs mounted to a metal rod that runs parallel to the door, directly above the door opening. These are a physical part of the door that generally last a long time, but lifting and lowering through different weather changes can weaken the metal over time and eventually cause a break. Most of the time, the wear and tear isn't noticed until there is an actual break and the door doesn't work.
