Here at Gryffin Garage Door LLC, proudly serving Chandler and the entire Phoenix metro area, we’re committed to providing our customers with the safest, most reliable, and longest-lasting garage door solutions. That’s why we often find ourselves discussing a critical component of your garage door system: the springs. While many homes might come equipped with a Wayne Dalton TorqueMaster spring system, we believe it’s essential to understand why this system can be an inferior choice compared to the tried-and-true standard torsion spring system.

The TorqueMaster’s Achilles’ Heel: Flimsy Materials and Costly Compromises

The TorqueMaster system, although compact and somewhat streamlined, often utilizes materials that don’t withstand the test of time or the rigors of daily garage door operation.

• Thin Metal Components: Unlike the robust construction of standard torsion springs and their supporting hardware, TorqueMaster systems frequently incorporate thinner gauge metal in crucial areas. This can lead to premature wear, warping, and ultimately, failure. When your garage door is lifting and lowering hundreds of pounds multiple times a day, every day, durability is paramount.
• Plastic Where There Should Be Steel: One of the most concerning aspects of the TorqueMaster design is its reliance on plastic components in areas where strength and resilience are critical. We’ve seen firsthand how these plastic parts can crack, strip, or disintegrate under the constant stress of the spring system, leading to unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs. These are points of failure that don’t exist in a well-designed torsion spring system.

Size Does Matter! Torsion springs have this inferior system beat!

Why Gryffin Garage Door LLC Champions Long-Term Solutions (Not Quick Fixes)

At Gryffin Garage Door LLC, our commitment extends beyond simply fixing a problem; we strive to provide long-term solutions that offer peace of mind and save you money in the long run. When we encounter a TorqueMaster system, especially one showing signs of wear or failure, our recommendation is clear: convert to a standard torsion spring system.

Here’s why this conversion is a wise investment:

• Superior Durability: Standard torsion springs are built to last. Made from high-quality, heavy-gauge steel, they are designed for countless cycles, providing consistent and reliable operation for years.
• Enhanced Safety: A robust spring system is crucial for the safe operation of your garage door. With fewer points of potential failure and stronger materials, a standard torsion system offers greater security and reduces the risk of sudden malfunctions.
• Easier Maintenance & Repair: While any garage door system requires maintenance, standard torsion springs are generally simpler to inspect, adjust, and repair by qualified professionals. Parts are readily available, and the system’s straightforward design makes future servicing more efficient.
• Cost-Effectiveness in the Long Run: While the initial cost of converting may be slightly higher than a temporary fix for a failing TorqueMaster, you’ll save significantly on future repairs and replacements. You’re investing in a system built to endure, avoiding the recurring issues often associated with the TorqueMaster.
