If you’re going to do substantial work anyway, why not just wait til the current opener fails, and replace it with a stronger one that’s meant to lift the amount of weight that it’s lifting?

Garage door repair guy here.

No opener is built to lift an out of balance door, the proper springs should be installed to balance the door.

Honestly and truly I hate when people insulate their own doors, it really doesn't really make much of a difference as far as heating/cooling
