Eaton sits in a humid continental climate — hot, humid summers and cold, snowy winters, with sharp freeze-thaw swings between seasons. That is hard on a door — winter snow and ice load on doors and tracks, cold-thickened opener grease that strains the motor, and wide seasonal swings that work bolts loose over time all accelerate wear on springs, seals, and openers, so the failures we see most here are corroded low brackets from winter slush, humidity-swollen wood doors in summer, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, and rusted hardware from snowmelt and road salt. We size springs and seals for Indiana's continental-climate region conditions rather than a generic catalog spec.
