Default If torsion spring breaks on metal garage door

What if you have both Springs broke. How do I open my door?


Get some extra muscle!

If all else fails, you can isolate each individual panel
(beginning with the topmost) and raise each separately.
I.e., the opposite of when the door is assembled/installed.

Do *not* play with the torsion springs! You are likely
to lose a finger (or three).
