Spring life in Spring, from the local numbers
At only 7.5 freeze–thaw cycles a year, Spring springs mostly serve their full rated life. What deserves the attention instead is balance: pull the release and lift — a door that will not hold at waist height is eating its spring and its opener at once.
Given that half the homes in Spring were standing by 1991, the doors worth testing before winter are the ones still on their original springs — the balance test finds them before a cold morning does.
