Common local problems in Alplaus
Frozen door-bottom seal adding spring load
In freezing conditions, a bottom seal frozen to the driveway can force the spring to work against extra resistance when the door opens, a common cold-climate stress factor.
Cable strain in freezing temperatures
Cold can thicken cable lubricant and add strain at the drum, sometimes contributing to fraying on the coldest days.
Cable and hinge cold-brittleness
Along with springs, lift cables can also become more brittle in extreme cold, increasing the chance of sudden failure alongside a spring.
Ice and snow interference near the spring assembly
Accumulated ice or snow at the base of the door can add extra resistance the spring has to work against, a common winter service call.
