Overview: Our Garage Door Pusher Springs are specifically designed to add a downward acting force against the top section of standard lift garage doors. These springs are essential in systems where jackshaft side mount openers are used, as they lack a natural downward acting force. The primary role of these springs is to ensure smooth operation and safety of the garage door. Key Functions: Maintain Constant Cable Tension: These springs assist in maintaining constant cable tension during the door's downward cycle, especially crucial for standard lift doors that don’t naturally exert downward force.Prevent Cable Slippage: By providing a controlled force, the pusher springs prevent the initial jumping of the door when the opener starts with the door in the open position, thereby avoiding the cables being thrown off the drums.Safety Against Door Misalignment: These springs serve as a safeguard against the door flying off the horizontal tracks due to user or operational errors, which is common in manually operated doors and in high-usage environments like loading docks and storage facilities. Design and Installation: Spring-Loaded Action: Our pusher springs are spring-loaded, contrasting with leaf bumpers, to provide consistent and reliable force.Easy Installation: Installed at the back of the horizontal tracks, these springs compress against the top section of the door as it opens, and slowly release tension when the door begins to close. Benefits and Applications: Ideal for preventing doors in loading docks and storage facilities from being flung open with excessive force.Necessary for garage doors with jackshaft side mount openers on standard lift doors.Enhances the overall safety and functionality of the garage door, reducing the risk of accidents and damage. By integrating our Garage Door Pusher Springs into your garage door system, you ensure a safer and more efficient operation, particularly in environments where door usage is frequent and safety is a paramount concern.
