How To Measure Garage Door Springs?
To measure the torsion springs, follow each of the following four steps carefully. If the garage door has two springs measure each spring individually.
(1) Measure Torsion Spring Inside Diameter
(2) Measure Torsion Spring Wire Size
(3) Measure Torsion Spring Length
(4) Wind of Torsion Spring
Please note:
Springs should never be adjusted or repaired by individuals who are not properly trained to perform this task and may not have the proper tools. Continuing to operate your door with a broken spring is very dangerous and can cause additional damage to the garage door and electric opener systems.
