I have a 12 overhead door on my polebarn. It has the coil type torsion springs and an opener that drives off the rod the springs are on. So it lifts the door by the cables attached to that rod and the door bottom. Hopefully you understand what I mean there.
Lately the problem has arose that when closing , the opener starts to turn the rod but the door hesitates to start rolling down immediately and so the cable spools off the pulley, gets tangled and causes problems. Sometimes very bad problems!
I ve tried adjusting the door so it doesn t go up quit as far and that helped some but it still is hesitating. Cant go too much more or I will have clearance problems with some equipment.
I ve checked the track and rollers and cant really see anything binding. It doesn t take much to get it moving, just a push of a finger. I m thinking maybe if I raise the tail end of the track so its at more of an angle it might start to roll closed faster. My other idea is to rig up a spring somehow to give it a push down for the first few inches to get it started. Then it seems fine.
