Springs

Garage door springs are the most annoying “small part” in your house.

Because it’s never just a spring.

It’s:

• a spring under tension,
• attached to a door that’s heavier than you remember,
• that you open 3–12 times a day without thinking,
• and the only time you notice it is when it breaks with a gunshot-ish bang.

Then the door becomes a slab. And the opener becomes… optimistic.

So let’s talk money in normal language.
