Speccing a door for Spring
half the homes in Spring were standing by 1991, so replacements typically inherit the original dimensions and skip the framing complications. The smart upgrade money goes to the counterbalance — high-cycle springs specified now cost a fraction of the retrofit later.
A complete quote here itemises removal and disposal, new track, springs matched to the new door's weight, and re-limiting of the opener, with the installer carrying the permit. When one bid undercuts the field, check which of those it dropped before celebrating.
Spring against its neighbours
The measurements shift town by town: The Woodlands's median build year is 2000 at 120 mph design wind; Humble's median build year is 1983 at 130 mph design wind; and Tomball's median build year is 1990 at 130 mph design wind.
This page runs on Spring's numbers (7.5 freeze–thaw cycles, 1991 median build, 95 ft of elevation) — close to the neighbours', never identical, which is exactly the point of measuring per city.

The mechanics are universal even where the climate is not: the national installation guide walks the repair itself, the anatomy of a fair quote, and the honest DIY verdict — everything this Spring page deliberately does not repeat.
