Huh? How much did it cost?
Edited by EffinIllini on December 17, 2025, 9:47:39
Have had 2 garage door springs replaced in the past couple of years. Original springs on single car doors installed 18 years ago, so the springs made it ~16 & 17 years. Installed cost was about $250. Called in the morning and they done by lunchtime. To me that didn't seem too expensive.  Previous Message
Guy told me the cheap option would only last two years, trying to talk me into one that will last 5 years at twice the price.
Took some interrogation, but eventually admitted that the duration is only a difference in warranty, the end result is they install the same springs.
