Michigan's severe winters mean garage doors face extreme cold and snow. This can make springs brittle and mechanisms stiff. The salt used on roads can also accelerate rust on metal parts. Summers bring humidity that can cause wood doors to warp or paint to peel. Because of this, garage door springs in Michigan often need attention, especially after the long winter months. We see many spring failures in the Detroit area.
