Why a garage door extension spring installation isn't a one-size job in Deerwood

Extension springs run in pairs along the tracks, and each one has to match the door's weight, the track length and how the door is hung before it'll hold a safe balance. A spring pulled off a shelf without measuring the door first tends to leave one side heavier than the other, which shows up fast as a door that shuts crooked or won't sit flush at the floor.

What a garage door extension spring installation has to account for on Deerwood's housing mix
