This guide will teach you how to adjust an uneven garage door to keep it running safely and smoothly.
How to balance a garage door with two torsion springs.
Locate the torsion springs on the bar above the garage door.
Open it just as wide as you can without hitting the garage door opener s stop bolt and place a clamp on the track on both sides to keep the door in.
The bar also has a pulley at each end through which the garage door cables that open and close it pass.
Spot the bar that runs parallel to the top of the garage door and has 2 springs on it.
Garage door springs offset the weight of the door and allow it to open and close with ease.
A problem with the spring tension could cause the door to open or close unevenly improperly or at the wrong speed and adjusting the springs will likely solve the problem.
Look at the wall just above the garage door.
