Then Cable and drum reset.

Garage Doors in WestonRepair or replace?
An honest answer.
Homeowners in Weston often ask whether their door has years left or is close to done. We tell you plainly. A door with sound panels and a good frame deserves a repair; a rusted, twisted or badly patched one is money better spent on a new door, and we explain which is which.

We work in Weston the way a good tradesman works on his own house: replace parts in matched pairs so wear stays even, use the spring size the door actually needs rather than the closest one on the shelf, and tidy the garage before leaving. Small habits like these are why doors stay fixed.

2021 census: what it means at the door
Every square is one home in a hundred.
- 58 in 100 homes · older homes
- 23 in 100 homes · mostly attached
- About 58% of homes in Toronto were built in 1980 or earlier, according to the 2021 Census.Where most houses were built a generation or more ago, a good share of garage doors are still the originals: wood or early steel sections on extension springs. Those doors respond well to fresh pulleys, safety cables and a careful balance, and the technician carries the parts for them.
- Single-detached houses make up about 23% of homes in Toronto (2021 Census).Townhouses built in rows tend to have identical doors from the same builder, so when springs and openers age they do so together along the street. Owners often arrange service for several doors at once, and we can plan a single visit that covers the row.

What to expect, in questions
What does a garage door tune-up actually include?
A full cycle observed before any work, a hands-on inspection of hinges, rollers, tracks, springs, cables, drums, brackets and the opener's attachments, tightening of the accessible fasteners, lubrication of the moving points with a garage door lubricant, a balance check with the door disconnected from the opener, adjustment of the opener's travel and force, cleaning and alignment of the photo-eyes, both reversal tests, a look at the seals, and a written record of the findings.
The screws spin in their holes. Can the hinge still be fitted securely?
Yes. A stripped hole is common on older steel doors and on wood doors where the timber has softened. The technician either shifts the hinge to fresh metal within the stile, uses a larger self-drilling screw that cuts new threads, or drills through and fits a bolt with a nut and washer or a backer plate on the inside. Any of these gives the new hinge a firmer anchor than the original screws had.
Would a stronger spring make the door easier to lift?
Not in a useful way. The aim is a spring that matches the door's weight, so the door holds still wherever you leave it. A spring rated above that weight pulls the door up on its own, makes it hard to close, and leans on the opener to hold it down. A spring rated below lets it sink. Matched springs, set to the same hook position, give the light, even feel you want.
How many turns does a torsion spring need?
As a starting point, roughly one full turn for every foot of door height, so a seven-foot door carries a little over seven turns and an eight-foot door a little over eight. The exact figure depends on the drum size and the spring's rating, so the technician winds to the estimate and then fine-tunes by quarter turns until the hand test passes at every height.
