Lee Spring – Torsion Springs
Torsion springs are designed and wound to be actuated rotationally and to provide an angular return force. This type of spring is a good option when the design space is limited. Torsion springs for garage doors should always have tensioning and stationary cones. Some doors require two springs, left-wound and right-wound springs. These springs are designed separately but the total torque provided is the sum of the two.
