How do you determine if it is right or left spring you need? Is it determined as you face the garage door from the inside or the outside?

When you look at the garage standing outside the one on the left is left and right is on the right. You cannot trust the red right deal sometimes both are red or black or no color. I recommend replace both anyway. internet search "DIY garage door spring repair" some great sights come up!

Look at them from the winding bracket, ( 4, 1/2 inch sockets) they will be twisted clockwise.

From the outside. I ordered ordered the wrong one but I was able to use it on the other side since I only had one spring on my door.
2019606
From the inside the spring is on the right side and end of spring is bolted to middle support bracket
2019607
Look at the end of spring where bolted to the wall. If its clockwise, it's right.

As you face the garage from the inside. Left side is red and right side is black

From the inside the spring is on the right side with the end of the spring bolted to centr support bracket

Actually when one of your torsion is broke, you have to replace both since when both got installed they usually have the same life. To determine which side of your torsion, when looking from the inside, the left spring is your right torsion and vice versa. Looking from the outside, your right is your right torsion. It's just the opposite when looking from the inside. Hope this help, or your can visit this site to have more info. http://www.stardoorparts.com/How-to-Measure-a-Garage-Door-Torsion-Spring-s/39.htm

I replaced both left and right sides, putting the new ones the same orientation as the old ones.When you apply tension, you should rotate it in the same direction that it is wound, the spring will get longer.I would suggest doing both sides at once.

When you look at the garage standing outside the one on the left is left and right is on the right.Also measure the diameter of the old one. No need to replace both.

You need a garage door with a torsion spring system. This opener will not work with extension springs.

My answer is that it is a left-opening handle. However the more important answer is this particular model allows you to make it either a right or left handle depending on which side of the door you are going to install it. It is quite simple and is explained in the owner's pamphlet included with the product. There is a pin-hole in the handle on the side of the lever. Use a small paper-clip and insert into the hole. This releases the locking mechanism that holds the lever handle to the plate. Then the lever handle can be pulled straight out. Then you can re-assemble the handle to the orientation you want, right or left. Good luck! Paul My answer is that it is a left-opening handle.

not sure what spring you are talking about. Mine has no springs. Have had mine for 4 years and love it . If you have a left tilt.....which i do....just switch the fence and stop to the other side and use the right miter slot. You will only need to do this when you tilt the blade. I make guitars and could not live without this!!!!

The side the gate opens to....Keep it pretty much vertical..All you want is the spring to move to its normal posistion to close gate..

The right and the middle door open out because the cabinet area inside is combined together. So, the rightt door opens to the outside, and the middle door swings to the left. This would be the "woman's" side because we need more room of course. The left side swings out, to the left, and only has cabinet space for that one section. This would be the "man's" side, since they generally need less room. When I try to see the back of my head, I usually open the left and the middle doors because they are closer together.There is the bottom/floor, and 2 adjustable shelves on the inside. The entire inside is mirrored also. LOVE this mirror, but VERY HEAVY.

I had purchased to use on bi-fold doors but the contractor bought the wrong door and ended up having to buy the regular closet style set. I had not planned on having something on the other side since they were just being used to pull a door open instead of turning~ I agree with the other response of using the left handle on the opposite side as well... Hope this helps!

That's how I'm using it. But the spring has to be on the outside... the hinge side.

I'm not sure what you are asking. My sliding (from the inside) slides from left to right. I'm sure it would have worked if the door slid from right to left.

That depends on location of the spring to the chain track. Looking towards the door in the garage, Right side of the track is a left winding. Left side of the track is right winding.

Yes. Mine is pointed downward when locked. Goes slightly horizontal when unlocked. Make sure you check your screw length and cut (if needed) to appropriate length. It WILL go through facing of deadbolt side if too long. This lock was a lifesaver for me considering the garage door is over 20 years old. Hope that was helpful.

Once the door is hung it only swings one direction. There are small, long rubber "gaskets" that give a water tight seal that prevent the door from swinging inward. It is also against most building/fire codes to have a door swing inward for safety reasons. The door may be hung so that it will open on your desired side(left or right). This is a great door and we have been very pleased.

All garage door openers require that the door be properly balanced by springs. This means that when the door is manually operated it requires no more than 20-30 #'s of lift. This operator is rated at no more than 525#'s total door weight that needs proper spring balancing.

I needed one left and one right hand, so I just flipped door hinges. This was for 2 back to back bathrooms so the cabinets were not next to each other, because there is a slight difference in the look. almost a year ago so i dont remember if the came left or right hinge.

It is definitely the spring. I tied the middle of the spring together to give the spring more strength and had no problem. One other of the design problems is the cover plate. Look to see that the inside of the plate is not making contact with the big belt wheel. The way to correct this design problem is to use washers to lift the cover plate away from the middle nut of the big wheel that holds the large belt.

It is facing the right way. It may not be the right one for your furnace, if it looks like it is facing the wrong way.

You have to tell the factory which way you want to use the holster. Mine is on my right hip, as I am right handed.
