failure or forceful manual operation.

trained door systems technician. DO NOT attempt to repair or adjust torsion springs yourself.
Extension Springs: A restraining cable or other device should be installed on the extension spring
(located above the horizontal tracks) to help contain the spring if it breaks.
2. Door Balance: Periodically test the balance of your door. If you have a garage door drawbar
operator, use the release mechanism so you can operate the door by hand when doing this
test. Start with the door in the fully closed position. Lift the door to check its balance. Adjust
