Spring lift cables and extension springs are the types that require more frequent replacement. Our company offers extension springs repair aside from replacement. The torsion spring consists of one or more tightly wound springs on a metal shaft with cable drums at the ends. The apparatus is mounted on the wall above the door. The springs consist of wires with stationary cones at an end plus a winding cone in opposite end. The counterbalance of an extension spring is made up of stretched springs moving parallel to the tracks. When the door is lifted, springs contract and lift the door as tension is released.
