Extension vs Torsion Springs, Which Is Better?

Extension springs are an older and more traditional garage door spring system, and while these garage door springs can do a great job supporting your garage door, torsion springs are the best choice. The reason is that torsion garage door springs are safer and can last twice as long as extension springs. You don’t have to worry if you have extension springs, since we are able to replace your current garage door spring system to torsion springs if you would like to.

 

Types of Garage Door Springs

There are two major kinds of garage door springs: Extension and Torsion.

Extension Springs

Extension springs are one of the most common types used in residential designs. They are also one of the most dangerous, so it is important to know how to safely install and maintain them. To prevent any injuries, safety cables must be put in place to hold them in position. Extension springs are located above the horizontal tracks on both sides of the garage door. They provide a counterbalance for the weight of the door, making it easier to open and close. It is important to have your extension springs inspected regularly by a professional, as they can wear out over time and break suddenly. A broken spring can cause serious injury or even death, so it is not something to take lightly.

Torsion Springs

Torsion springs use torsion to force the garage door open and shut. They can be used individually or in pairs. A single garage door will usually have one torsion spring. This part is responsible for counterbalancing the weight of the door so that it can be easily opened and closed. These springs are located above the door opening and use torque to open and close the door. Torsion springs are generally safer than extension springs because they are not under as much tension when they snap. That’s why it’s important to have it regularly serviced by a professional to ensure that it is working properly.

Extension vs Torsion: Which Is Better?

Extension springs are an older and more traditional system, and while these designs can do a great job supporting your garage door, we recommend torsion. The reason is that torsion springs are safer and can last twice as long as extension springs. If you would like to upgrade your system, we offer garage door torsion spring replacement.
