Today we're going to take a look at the conventional single spring ramp door spring for the seven foot wide enclosed trailers. This has 120 pound weight capacity. Now you can replace your old trailer door spring with this nice heavy duty conventional ramp door spring. Application for this is seven foot wide trailers. Now this ramp door spring lets you easily lift and lower the door on your enclosed trailer without the risk of injury because it'll help take on the weight of the trailer doors so that you don't have to. This spring will help reduce wear, helps prevent damage to the door hinges.
And if you notice on each end they have the cable drums that the cable goes around, those cable drums are marked, they have a right hand on this side and a left hand marking on this side. So when you do go to install this, the right hand drum should be on the curb side of the trailer and the left hand side should be on the road side or driver's side.This is a nice sturdy steel construction. It is made in the USA. It does include everything shown here, includes the galvanized cable with the quarter inch nylon eyes on each end, the brackets, and a nice set of detailed instructions. Now just a warning on the installation, it is recommended that only individuals who have experienced winding these torsion springs should install this product cause winding.
These Springs can be very dangerous if you're not familiar with the procedure, so if you've not worked with a torsion spring system before, we do recommend contacting your local garage door company to install this system. Also, I did want to mention that if you do have a smaller width trailer that's less than seven foot with a heavy door and you'd like to use this higher capacity spring for that application, this can be modified by cutting the shaft to a shorter length and then adjusting the bracket and the cable drum on the end to the smaller width that's needed.You can see there's two screws here that hold the cable drum in place. If they are loosened, this whole bracket and the drum will slide to whatever with you would need and then just cut off the remainder. So it can be adjusted. I'm just going to go ahead and put it back out to seven foot wide trailers because we're going to give you some dimensions here.
So basically when this is mounted in this position for seven foot trailers, overall width on it is going to be 77 inches wide. The depth on it, which will be measured from where this mounts to your trailer to the back here is going to be seven and a half inches deep. And the overall height on it is about 4 7/8 inches tall. And the spring capacity we did mention is 120 pounds. But that should do it for the review on the conventional single spring ramp door spring for the seven foot wide enclosed trailers..

This ramp spring serves the purpose, but re-adjustment after setting the tension is somewhat difficult because the shifters wall is too thin and dents when the screws are tightened. This makes the movement of the collar difficult. Other than that this has been a very helpful add to my fold down shed door.
Product arrived already assembled ready to bolt on. Over all happy with it an yes this comes with everything you need to install except bolts. But if your looking for the whole setup in one kit, this is it.
Product came damaged and didn’t include the cables. It looks like they should have been included from what I can tell. I’ll try and salvage what I can from the other one and pray I can get it to work. I don’t want to deal with the hassle of having it sent back.
The ramp spring works great. It was easily adjusted to the width of the trailer and easy to install.
First Time dealing with E-trailer. Had a great experience. Placed my order over the phone, and a very nice man (Will) helped me select the right parts for my job. He was extremely polite and helpful. He also followed up after my parts were delivered to ask if the order was correct and if I had any problems, questions or concerns. All the parts arrived early and were as described. I look forward to dealing with E-trailer in the future.
This item saved me alot of money.
Great product. Did what it said it would, easy to install. 1 year and still going.
Installed easy,works great.
Would absolutely buy again.
Delayed my installation but now completed and it went well and works great but item came without winding bars so I had to buy them and another delay waiting for winding bars to arrive
Super quick shipping, Had to shave off about 7” for it to fit my 7x14 enclosed rear door. 2.25 rotations was perfect for my 98# door.
Works perfectly highly recommend it.

It works great, so much easier on the back. Now I can close the door with one hand instead of having to call my neighbor over for help. Highly recommend, well worth the price.
