You ever wonder how your garage door opens and closes everyday? The thought probably never crossed your mind, well, unless you started having garage door problems. Well, here's a quick rundown of the two most powerful mechanisms, Torsion and Extension springs, in your garage door and they both lift and close your garage door for you.

Now, these springs can be extremely dangerous, so it's a good idea to get a professional to fix it if you're experiencing any problems with them. Torsion springs are especially dangerous since they are a little more difficult to work with compared to Extension springs.
