Question 5

What's the difference between torsion and extension springs?

Torsion springs mount above the door opening and use torque to lift the door. Extension springs run along the horizontal tracks and stretch to provide lifting power. Torsion springs are generally safer and last longer, making them our recommended choice for most installations.
