Torsion springs are the most common counterbalance system and used on the majority of garage door brands.
Most customers purchase the exact replacement springs on their door.
It is best practice to replace both springs if you have two springs. If one spring has broken the other will likely break soon as well.

Was the right fit and arrived fast. Would recommend.
Ordered the spring on a Sunday night, easy to do with the website and information provided. Was very surprised to receive it Tuesday by noon. Super fast shipping and perfect replacement.

Return customer here. The last set of springs lasted about 5 years but I use my garage door all the time so I am pretty satisfied with the product. I ordered and they shipped the same day. I recommend them!
