Why a broken garage door extension spring is rare in Cross Creek Ranch
Cross Creek Ranch is a 3,200-acre community in Fulshear, in northwestern Fort Bend County, and because large-scale construction here didn't begin until Trendmaker Homes bought the land in 2005, the community was built entirely within the era when torsion springs were already the builder standard — a broken extension spring here usually means a non-standard or outbuilding door.
