A couple of common misconceptions about gas springs:
- A 10 lb door requires a 10 lb force spring ➔ rarely true! The force required is usually several times higher than the weight of the door.
- You only need one spring ➔ Yes, but your door is likely to twist with one spring. Using two gas springs delivers better performance, reliability and safety.
