Spring System Conversion (Extension → Torsion)
Many older garages in Florida still use extension springs. While functional, they don’t offer the same safety, balance, or lifespan as modern torsion spring systems. That’s why many homeowners in Lake Wales, Auburndale, Crystal Lake, and Dundee are upgrading with a spring system conversion from extension to torsion. At Rockets Garage Door Services, we provide professional conversions that improve safety, extend the life of your garage door, and make daily operation smoother than ever.

Why Convert to Torsion Springs?
Extension springs stretch and contract along the sides of your garage door. Torsion springs, on the other hand, mount above the door and twist to provide balanced lifting power. Converting to torsion springs offers several advantages:
Improved safety – Torsion springs are less likely to snap and fly loose.
Longer lifespan – Typically last 2–3 times longer than extension springs.
Quieter operation – Reduces noise and vibration.
Even weight distribution – Protects panels and hardware.
Better compatibility – Works well with modern openers and hurricane-rated doors.
In Lake Wales, a homeowner told us they were tired of replacing extension springs every few years. After converting to torsion, they haven’t had a problem since.
Signs It’s Time for Conversion
Frequent spring failures or uneven lifting.
Noisy operation and jerky door movement.
Garage door feels heavy even with an opener.
Old extension spring system doesn’t meet safety codes.
Desire for longer-lasting, low-maintenance performance.
In Auburndale, one family noticed their door leaned to one side every time it opened. Conversion to torsion springs eliminated the issue.

Benefits of Torsion Conversions
Fewer repairs – Torsion springs last longer, saving money.
Safer design – No dangerous recoil if a spring breaks.
Stronger lifting – Handles heavier or insulated doors with ease.
Better control – Provides smoother stops and starts.
Code compliance – Meets modern Florida safety requirements.
In Dundee, a customer said their garage was noticeably quieter after the conversion—a big relief since the garage was under their bedroom.

For busy households, we recommend upgrading to high-cycle torsion springs:
Rated for up to 40,000 cycles.
Ideal for families who use their garage as the main entry.
Provides long-term reliability and cost savings.
In Lake Wales, one family upgraded to high-cycle torsion springs to handle their daily 8–10 cycles.
