Does it matter if a garage door has one spring or two springs?

A two-spring system will pull the door more evenly as it opens and closes. It is also safer when the spring breaks because you still have another spring helping hold the weight of the door. When a one-spring door breaks it can come crashing down to the floor, damaging the door and anything that might be underneath the door.
