Need to repair or replace the Torquemaster spring system on your garage door? If you bought a new home from DR Horton, Lennar, Ryan, Pulte, DreamFinders or another popular track builder, then it’s likely you have the Wayne Dalton Torquemaster spring system on your garage door.
A little over a year after buying a new home, our customer Alex informed us that he was having an issue with his garage door spring system. The door would go down a couple of inches and then stop. The culprit? The Wayne Dalton Torquemaster spring system was failing, and his 1-year manufacturer’s warranty on the spring components had just expired. In addition, his home construction warranty had expired.
Convert to Standard Torsion Spring System
In most cases, we recommend converting the Wayne Dalton TorqueMaster spring system to a standard torsion spring system. The cost to replace a Wayne Dalton TorqueMaster spring system is about the same to convert it into a standard torsion spring system.
In addition, the standard torsion spring system has a smoother running operation that typically has a longer lifespan than the Wayne Dalton spring system.
Finally, we offer a bonus… an extended warranty!
