The Don Mills Speciality
Mid-Century Doors: Custom-Wound Springs & Heavy Sections
Original 1950s–60s Don Mills doors are often heavier than modern equivalents — thicker plywood skins, solid struts — and many were re-fit with whatever springs were on the shelf over the decades. Fitting off-the-shelf sizes to a heavy door shortens spring life and strains openers, so we weigh the door and custom-wind torsion springs to match.
When a door is genuinely at end of life, a modern insulated retrofit — lighter, quieter, standard parts forever — usually wins the math. We price both paths honestly.
