I have 3 single garage doors at my house. The house was built in ‘93.
I don’t know what a spring costs. But there is a garage door place about 3 miles down the road. I just take the old broken spring to them. They sell a new spring to me. I can’t remember what a spring costs.
It took me longer to watch the YouTube “How to” video than what it did for me to replace the spring. It’s not hard. There is a certain procedure to it. My cables are still in great shape. I guess I saved a bunch of money doing it myself.
I’ve mentioned a few times that I worked for UPS for 43 years, a lot of those years I was pulling trailers. UPS had very few swing door trailers. The vast majority were roll up type; basically a garage door. It is absolutely AMAZING how easily a well lubricated garage door works, when properly set up. Grease and oil are your friend.
