Springs

Springs & Hardware

The counterbalance system is the part of the door people never see and rely on completely. Springs, cables, drums, bearings and brackets share one load, and this group covers keeping that load carried safely.

  1. Steel and nylon garage-door rollers with long stems lie beside a detached hinge on a workbench. — Garage Door Roller Replacement, Kitchener
    Garage Door Roller ReplacementHalfway up, the door hesitates and the opener strains before it carries on. Pulled by hand with the opener released, you feel the same catch at the same height, as if a wheel is dragging instead of turning.
  2. Metal center hinge across a seam in a white sectional garage door. — Garage Door Hinge Replacement, Kitchener
    Garage Door Hinge ReplacementOn the old wood door, one hinge has pulled away from the panel, dragging a screw and a chunk of soft timber with it. The panel sags slightly at that joint and the door bumps at the curve instead of gliding.

    Torsion Spring ReplacementOn a cold morning the remote does nothing useful: the light comes on, the motor turns briefly, the door stays shut. There may be a fresh crack in a rusty coil, and flakes of orange on the floor below the shaft.
  6. Two detached extension springs with hooked ends on a garage bench. — Extension Spring Replacement, Kitchener
    Extension Spring ReplacementThe door climbs with the left corner ahead of the right, then twists as it turns into the ceiling track. Looking up, the spring on the right side is stretched longer than its partner, with daylight showing between the…
