Below is a checklist for relevant information when enquiring about broken garage door springs, ranging with the most important to the least.
Panel Doors (torsion type springs):
1. The size of the door, ie - 2250mm h x 4880mm w.
2. Brand of the door, ie - B&D, CSI, Steel-Line.
3. Length of the spring, not including the end cap and anchor plate. Always measure the 2 halves of the broken spring and then add together. Springs stretch when they are tensioned, and the good spring will still have tention on it, therefore measuring the good spring will not help us gauge what spring you may require .
4. The length of 10 coils.
5. The inside and outside diameter of the broken spring.
6. The diameter of the wire (should equal length of 10 coils divided by 10).
7. The amount of panels that make up your door, and how many of them have an aluminium bracing running across it (on double panel doors there are usually support braces on the top and bottom panels at the least).
