Garage door repairs and installation in Springs
The far East Rand is not too far. We work in Springs regularly, and a broken spring in Selcourt is a same-day callout, not a next-week promise.

Older houses, older doors, and hardware that has done its time
Springs has some of the oldest housing stock on the East Rand, and it produces exactly the kind of callout you would expect: doors that have been going up and down for thirty or forty years on hardware nobody has ever touched.
The panels, more often than not, are fine. Steel doors of that era were built heavily, and a coat of paint over a lifetime of Highveld weather has generally held. What has not held are the springs, the cables and the rollers — all of which are rated in cycles, all of which passed their rated life a long time ago, and all of which are now waiting for an inconvenient moment.
So the Springs conversation is a practical one. New springs, new cables, new rollers and a proper re-balance, and a thirty-year-old door runs like a five-year-old one — for a fraction of what a replacement costs. Where a panel has genuinely rusted through, we will tell you, and we will not pretend otherwise.

Garage door questions from Springs
Old doors, travel times and honest costs.
In Springs and stuck?
Send us a photo of the door on WhatsApp. We can usually name the fault before we load the vehicle.
WhatsApp a photoDo you actually come out to Springs?
Yes, regularly. Springs is at the far end of our East Rand run but it is a run we make constantly. Same-day where the diary allows, first thing the following morning where it does not — and you will get a straight answer on the phone rather than an optimistic one.
My door is thirty years old. Is it finished?
Very possibly not. The steel doors of that era were built heavily, and the panels usually outlast everything else on the door. New springs, cables, rollers and a proper re-balance will frequently give you a door that runs like new, for a fraction of the cost of replacing it.
What does a spring replacement cost?
Roughly R1 200 – R2 800 for a pair of torsion springs on a standard door. We publish the full list on our price guide so you can check the number before anybody arrives at your gate.
Can you automate a door this old?
If it is sound and properly balanced, yes. We check the balance first — a motor on a badly balanced door simply transfers the problem to the motor, and that is a more expensive problem than the one you started with.
Book a technician
Thirty years old is not the same as finished.
New springs, new cables, new rollers, proper balance. Frequently a fraction of what you feared it would cost.
