EZ-Set Garage Door Torsion Springs

While EZ-Set torsion springs look a lot like the more common standard torsion springs, the hardware differs significantly, as EZ-Set torsion springs are mounted to winders on the ends of a shaft.

Depending on the size of your garage door, it will likely use either one or two EZ-Set torsion springs. Wider garage doors will also have two shafts, as well as a coupler to join the two shafts.

If your broken garage door spring is an EZ-Set torsion spring, get in touch with Premium Garage Door Service to schedule a garage door spring repair.

Standard Torsion Springs for Garage Doors

As the most common type of garage door springs there are, standard torsion springs are usually found in installations of one or two springs, through four or more can be used for garages that require wide openings for large vehicles.

Standard torsion springs can be installed in one of four different configurations: the linear system, the duplex system, the triplex system, or the mixed system. The linear system is used mostly on wide garage doors. The duplex system uses two larger springs, and each spring has a smaller spring inside. The triplex system is much like the duplex system, except three springs are inside the outer spring instead of two. Finally, the mixed system uses a combination of the linear system and either the duplex or triplex system.

If your garage uses standard torsion springs, the professionals at Premium Garage Door Service are experienced in installing them in any kind of setup. Whether your garage utilizes the linear, duplex, triplex, or mixed systems, we'll safely install your springs and get your garage door working like new.
