Garage door motors are not designed to lift large wooden double-wide doors
without considerable assistance. The springs act as a counter-balance, and
if the spring breaks, the motor can not lift these heavy doors. Some doors
weigh as much as 350 to 450 pounds, and if the spring breaks on a single
point of entry, then entry may be challenging.
Best,
Christopher
