Garage door questions, answered for St. Elmo

In St. Elmo it is usually cold-snapped torsion springs in deep winter — and because the area has mainly suburban houses with attached two-car garages, mixed with some older central-neighborhood homes, we also see a lot of humidity-swollen wood doors in summer. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.
