Many people use their garage door more often than their front door. As the main entry and exit point of your home, your garage door goes up and down several times a day. Even so, it’s only natural for you to neglect its importance in your daily life.

What Is Garage Door Spring?

Before you try to fix your garage door spring, you have to understand what is the garage door spring and how dangerous is it.

To many people get crushed by garage door springs. If you don’t want to be part of the statistic, you should leave your garage door repair to professionals. However, even if you’re not fixing your garage door, it won’t hurt if you know the basic mechanics of the system.

The garage door spring holds the entire weight of your garage door. Since it is the largest moving part of your home, your spring is holding more or less 300 lbs of weight that makes your garage door lighter. This enables you to easily lift your garage door in case of emergency and during a power outage.

Your spring also distributes evenly the weight throughout your garage door. This allows your door to have a more balanced movement whenever it is being used.

The two types of garage door springs, torsion and extension, look like any regular spring. Basically, they are long metal coils that lift the entire garage door. However, what’s different between the two is How the garage door springs operate. Torsion springs twist while extension springs expand and compress.
