No problem.

Just to elaborate, my old doors were shit - wood framed panels with MDF centres. Once the paint failed, they just started soaking up moisture like a sponge. Eventually, they just started falling apart.

Got a new pair of Cloplay's from a sale at HD - a pair of 9x7', 2", insulated, 4 panels each.

I procrastinated installing these until one of the tension springs finally broke and I had to address it. The tracks were in great shape so I just installed the panels/rollers myself. It was my first time and I've never watched anyone do it before so going step by step, reading the instructions as I went, the first door took 2 hours to install. It was actually the easier of the two because the spring was broken, so there was no tension on the cables. The second one took 45 minutes. I took the bottom brackets off when the door was all the way up and had no tension on them. Once all the old panels were out of the way, I unhooked the cables from the lower brackets.

I've heard horror stories about people setting tension springs so I left to the pro from CASP. Jonas is a really easy guy to talk to, quoted me a fair price and had a guy out there the next morning. Johnny was right on time and explained what he was doing to adjust the spring tension. He also replaced the cables on one door and adjusted some tracks and garage door opener for optimal performance.

The door with the new spring now has perfect balance and requires almost no effort from the garage door opener. There was nothing wrong with the spring on the other door but it is too strong for the new, lighter door. Not really a big deal since I rarely open that side but if I want to change it, I'm now confident I can do it myself, safely.

EEeewwww... before I picked up the new doors I started scraping the old paint off and was going to try to get another year out of these:



After this happened, screw it, time for new doors:



Fcuk these things are heavy:



New doors are in but still a pain in the ass to open without the springs hooked up:



The writing on the spring was straight across before it was wound up. This bitch is under a lot of tension:



Fin. New trim, cut 1/4" off the ground, painted and caulked all the way around:

Is the motor attached to the door in the pic? It looks like the top right corner and the top of the door isn't flush with the wall.

On this side of the garage there's a heating duct going upstairs on one side that prevents the vertical section of track from being the optimal height (about 6" short). To compensate for this, there's a special 2 part hinge at the top. It's made to follow the door and push out at the end of its travel.

There's no opener on this side (yet) and I have to redrill the track to mount the stoppers for the hinge in a different spot. I'm going to do that when I install the opener and weather-seal the perimeter.
