I have a single spring at the top of the door on my doors. Not sure if that's the type your talking about or the ones with a spring on each side of the door with the cable and pulley on each spring.
Mine isn't Rocket Science to replace the spring, I've done all three of mine at one time or another, but you must be real careful when adding or releasing the tension. On mine I lock the door down and lock the rod the spring is on with a couple of pairs of vise grips. I have two pieces of 1/2 inch rods about a foot long that I use on the spring tension lock piece. BE REAL CAREFULL AND HAVE A TIGHT GIP ON THE RODS WHEN YOU SCREW THE TENSION RELEASE BOLTS OUT THAT LOCK THE MECHINSUM. Then slowly work the mechinsum in or out depending on weather your adding or taking off pressure. I tighten my spring about 8 turns to get my 9x8 doors open.
Just be care and I keep myself as far away from things as I'm working on it in case something goes wrong. I did have a spring break one time as I was adding tension but nothing happened, it stayed on the rod it mounted on.
