Few years ago, when we still used to sell parts for rolling gates and garage door parts in Monroe County, We got a call from someone who asked for torsion springs for a commercial roll up door. We asked what size of springs he need, and we supplied him with the requested springs. The next day we received a call from an angry man who said that the springs we sold him are damaged and that he want his money back. We asked him to relax, explained to him that we supplied him with the right springs, and told him that after 20 years of repairing rolling gates in Monroe County, we know which spring is needed. We told him that we are sending someone to help him install the new springs.
When our technician arrived, he asked him to show him what did he do, and the technician immediately recognized the mistake, which is often being made when an amateur try to install torsion springs. He had a low-headroom overhead door, and needed to install the springs in a different way. Luckily he didn’t got injured during the process, and the door did not damage. It took our technician, who repaired many rolling gates and overhead door in Monroe County 35 minutes to replace both springs, using the springs we supplied. And the door is working fine until today.
