The Problem...
The winding and unwinding of garage door torsion springs is a dangerous, and in some cases even fatal, endeavor.

You are often leaning on a ladder, unbalanced and feeling slightly nervous with the thoughts of the task ahead. Armed with a pair of steel winding bars and a screw driver you begin inserting and pulling the winding bars, hand over hand, one after the other. As you feel the torque in the spring increasing you continue to work ever more slowly and cautiously, hoping that you don't make that one wrong move that will throw you and your hand tools off the ladder and crashing to the floor... only to climb back up and start over because the job must get done.

The Solution...
With the E-Z Ratch system this risky job becomes safe, easy, fast, and even enjoyable!

Get rid of your winding bars and gain the piece of mind and the satisfaction of a job well done that comes with the E-Z Ratch system.
