It may seem obvious to use caution when working on the springs’ winding brackets, but another area that carries risk is where the lifting cable mounts to the door itself. This location can be up to 8 or 10 feet away from the spring. Many unsuspecting homeowners have discovered this suddenly, as the roller they were hoping to replace gets ripped off by the lifting cable that is attached to it. The winding drum is also an area where caution is required, as it connects the main shaft to the cable. This mechanism works as a complete assembly with many of the parts being connected to many others; understanding this complete “system” will allow for safety.
