  • Bifold To Single Door Charmc Gooseneck Enclosed Trailer Conversion
  • Depending on your dimensions, the double torsion springs fit 96 inches wide, # CB250D96SHD or the 81 inches wide, # ERS120D81 would be used. Installation requiring winding torsion springs can be very dangerous if you don't have prior experience. A local garage door company can install this system if you're not confident. A retention device for the door when it is up such as # 383200 can also be used horizontally or vertically.
