These are long, coiled metal springs with a spring-loaded center rod that operate from the bottom of the door up towards the top of it, lifting it off its tracks. The tension or force is created by adding coils to bring your garage door closer to its full open position. Efficiency can be improved by adjusting the length of these extensions when necessary.

Torsion springs
A torsion spring is a coiled steel spring used to provide tension to lift the garage door. Torsion springs are located inside of a drum that is attached to the header of the garage door. If a torsion spring breaks, it will result in the entire weight of the garage door being supported by cables. This makes it impossible for humans to manually lift the door without damaging its cables and/or springs. Torsion springs gradually lose their elasticity over time and need to be replaced every 10-15 years.
In terms of cost replacement, torsion springs are more economical for most homeowners than extension springs, so long as proper maintenance is performed on them. This is because they are smaller than an extension spring and so you can use fewer of them (theoretically, you could use just one to lift your garage door).
Extension springs
Extension springs are steel coiled springs that provide a lifting force for the garage door. Whereas torsion springs are mounted on the header, extension springs are mounted on tracks that run along the header and ceiling. Cables running from each end of the spring to these tracks are responsible for opening and closing the door. Extension springs require periodic tightening to maintain their tension; failure to do this may make it impossible for a garage door to open or close.
Generally, extension springs are much more expensive than torsion springs. They are also heavier and therefore require stronger walls (often 6"" thick) in order to accommodate their weight. Most homeowners have a single torsion spring at their disposal, equal to the weight of the garage door itself. This means that if you replaced both your garage door and torsion spring, the only thing keeping your garage door from crashing down is your ability to push on it.
