Jeff: Hello everybody. This is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today, we're going to take a look at this conventional dual-spring ramp door spring for up to an eight foot wide enclosed trailer. Has 120 pound inaudible 00:00:12 spring capacity. Now this part will replace your old trailer door spring with this nice heavy-duty conventional ramp door spring. This ramp door spring will let you easily lift and lower the door on your enclosed trailer without the risk of injury, it'll help take on the weight of the trailer door so that you don't have to.
Now this one is a dual-spring design. The dual-springs will eliminate the risk of the ramp door collapsing and causing damage or injury. Basically, if one of the cable fails, the other spring will prevent the trailer door from free-falling. This spring will also reduce wear and help prevent damage to your door hinges. And this spring is designed to be mounted one way for proper operation.When you go to install this, you want to make sure the cable drums, these are the cable drums right here, these will need to be mounted.
They're marked this one over here will have an R on it for right-hand side. And then they spray paint it black also to indicate that. This one here will be stamped L for left-hand side. And they spray paint it red to indicate that. But basically when you go to mount this, the right side right here, this is what will mount onto the curbside of the trailer.
The left side is designed to mount on the road side of the trailer.Now this spring system can be modified to fit your specific application. Right now, I have the springs all the way out to the end for the largest. But you can slide the spring and the cable drum down and then cut the shaft to a shorter length to fit your application. The range on this, with it all the way out like this from this end to that end, is going to be 95 and five eighths inches wide. And then if we slide this all the way to the shortest or the narrowest trailer door...
I'll just loosen our cable drum there and we'll slide that with the bearing. So if we go all the way, from here to here, the minimum would be 54 and three quarter inches. And again, if you need that, then you could just cut off this shaft to a shorter length. So again, the application will be 54 and three quarter inches all the way to 95 and five eights inches wide trailer door.Now, it does include everything here on the table. It includes your mounting brackets with the hardware. It includes 150 inches of one eighth inch diameter cable and the hardware for the cable and the set screw covers. Now this is a nice sturdy steel construction. It is made in the USA. Again, the specs on this, if we put this all the way out, if we measure from this end to that end, it's going to be 95 and five eighths inches long, the diameter, the widest diameter will be the drum itself, is four and three quarter inches. Spring capacity is 120 pounds.And I do want to mention a warning when you do try to install a spring, it is recommended that only individuals who have experience winding these torsion springs should install this product because when you start winding this, it gets a lot of tension. It is dangerous. So if you've not worked with a torsion spring system before, we do recommend contacting a local garage door company to help you install this system. But that should do it for the review on this conventional dual-spring ramp door spring for up to an eight foot wide enclosed trailer. And it has 120 pound spring capacity.

Replace your old trailer door spring with this heavy-duty system. This dual-spring setup lets you easily open and close the ramp door on your enclosed trailer and eliminates the risk of freefalling. Fits 54-3/4" to 95" wide trailer doors.The coil spring works great. I saw a ramp door online and copied it for my shed. I built the ramp door from the shed double opening doors and used most of the parts from etrailer.com The dual spring is used to assist opening and closing the ramp door. I calculated the weight and called etrailer.com and they helped me size the dual spring.
I JUST GOT AROUND To opening the box i was pretty disappointed that there is no mounting hardware 4 bolts with nuts 2 cables 2 brakets and 2 cables not impressed
was simple to install and still works perfect after 1 year
hardware included, cut to fit,easy to set up and worked perfectly
Fast shipping and is exactly as describ ed
Very good product easily installed

Easy to install, makes opening and closing the ramp door a breeze.

Works great
What a great company to work with! No problem with ordering,
and the shipping is super fast and free. A "Top Shelf " product.
Worked well, cut down the bar to fit our trailer needs and bolted right up. Right side pulley was bent, (Probably from Shipping). Working with them for a replacement. Just took the pulley off the old to get the trailer back on the road. Installed quickly with 2 guys and everything was as described when purchased.
I ordered it and it was here in 3 days! Good quality, Nice price & Fast shipping! Nobody local would sell us one because we weren't using it for a ramp door! We used it to assist in lifting the 80lb. stairs on a truck. Works great, There won't be any back injuries now.
I have a home repair buisness and repair and install garage doors so it was a great benifit in intalling this ramp door spring. The quality of these are right up there with whats on your garage door just lighter duty springs. Be sure to weigh your door to get the correct springs. Customer service was beyond great, thank you to all reps.
after install my ramp opens and closes smoothly
Very fast delivery. Easy to install and adjust. Would buy again.
This system has worked flawless for a year would recommend it to anyone needing one
Works very well,I was worried because I had to cut down the length ,had to take off one spring because of how short I had to make it.But I am very pleased and the door lifts great.
This was a great purchase. I modified the rear door on my trailer and this came with everything that I needed to install it. We use the trailer almost every weekend for 3 seasons. it works just as good now as the day I installed it.
The part I initially ordered got back ordered. My sales representative kindly recommended an upgraded alternative at the same price. Shipping was quick and the new part was easy to install. Five stars all the way!
Installed like I new what I was doing why didn’t I put this on years ago? It works great
excellent service. delivery was on time and very efficient. will definitely do business again.
Very good
