You don't unless they break. I had one break and it was hard to replace. Unless you need to leave them alone.
www.doorcoinc.com: The standard torsion springs in the industry are meant to last 10,000 cycles. So if you go in and out to work 5 days a week and go on vacation for two weeks a year your springs would probably last for 20 years. (Two cycles a day five days a week = 10 cycles a week. Over a year your door would get 50 weeks time 10 cycles a wee or 500 cycles. Hence 20 years.) Often times better springs are used which last longer than 10,000 cycles and often people use their garage door much more often than stated above. The next time you get your torsion springs replaced ask the company what the cycle time on the springs are. The tech may not know but the owner probably does. Then you can do the calculations, based on how often you use the door, yourself. Some, usually elderly, customers do like to replace the springs before they break to reduce the chance of being locked in.
