Overhead 2car garage door winding???
Hello DIY-ers,
I have brocken torsion spring (one of two) on my 2 car garage door, 16"x7", wood with glass panells. I have had bought replacement pair of torsion springs. They sent me 2" longer what I ordered. Is this going to be the problem?? Actually I have question about how many times should I wind torsion springs to be like before??? I didn't count how many times those springs was winded before. Does anyone know how many times should I wind those springs?? Is this going to make me big trouble because they are 2" longer that those old ones??? If I put in next few months more weight onto garage door (if I put insulation, do I need to wind again those torsion springs and how many times)??? Please send me an email to or post to this board. Thanks in advance. Very sincerely, Dino K |
