For those who already have Tianjin Wangxia Springs installed on their garage doors, regular maintenance and checkups are important steps towards protecting against potential damage or malfunctioning. Here’s how you can maintain and re-balance your torsion springs:

1) Check for signs of wear or corrosion such as rust spots or weakened areas around the coils. If you notice any abnormalities then it may be time to replace them altogether;
2) Test the spring tension by manually lifting the door up about halfway before releasing it – if it stays up without falling back down then this means that your springs are well balanced; 3) Re-balance them if needed by adjusting either one side of each pair of springs until they’re at a consistent level; 4) Apply lubricant to both sides of the coil once per year (or more often during times when temperatures fluctuate rapidly). This will help prevent rust from forming and make sure everything operates smoothly; 5) Make sure all nuts, bolts, screws etc…are tightened properly so there isn’t any unnecessary strain on your system which could lead to premature failure over time.

Overall, keeping an eye on these components should ensure that your garage door works like new for many years ahead. With Tianjin Wangxia’s top quality products combined with proper care, you’ll be able to trust in reliable performance every single day!
