Spring Systems Explained: Torsion Ratings and Real Traffic
Springs carry the door every cycle, so their rating should match real traffic rather than the minimum that opens the door on day one.
A door opened 30 times a day needs a different spring specification from one opened 150 times - and the difference shows up in year three, not year one.
We document spring torque curves for project doors so replacement planning starts from data.
