Torsion springs are above the garage door, running horizontally. Depending on the size of your garage door, there may be one or more springs present. These springs operate on a counterbalance-rotating system. Torsion springs are generally thought to be easier to manage and stronger than their extension spring counterparts. 


Extension springs run along each side of your garage door, near the top of the door opening. Extension springs use a counterbalance-pulley system to open and close your garage door. Extension springs require an exact balance between the two sides and can sometimes be difficult to manage.
