Sorry I was thinking of a garage door “safety cable” which is not applicable to the spring in the picture. I will fix my post to avoid further confusion.
No worries! Tbh an enclosed (or at least shielded) garage spring is not a bad idea, although would be more difficult to inspect and work on in the event it’s needed.
I’ve never seen an enclosed garage spring. Is that common, or more of a high-end garage door installation?
