Both springs, matched to the weight
One broken spring is a pair that has done its work. We size the set to the leaf. We do not hang a leftover coil from another door.
Garage door spring replacement in Gordon's Bay — snapped or tired springs matched to door weight. Both springs as general practice, not a patented method.
Garage-door springs take the weight of the leaf. When one snaps, the door sits dead or the motor strains, and the remaining spring is usually tired. Gordon's Bay Garage Doors replaces springs on sectional, roll-up and tip-up doors in Gordon's Bay, Strand and Gordon's Bay. Replacing both, and matching them to the door weight — meranti is not Aluzinc — is general practice. It is not a patented method and not a reason to buy a leftover coil. A spring job is still a visit: we look at cables, drums, balance and whether the leaf itself is finished. A motor that has been lifting an under-sprung door may have suffered; we will say so. We will not invent an interval at which every Helderberg spring must be changed. If the door is off-track or the cables are frayed, those sit on the hardware card and are part of the same honest scope.

A door that will not lift is often a spring. We look at balance before we specify a new operator.
A spring visit is a chance to see drums, cables and alignment. Related hardware is scoped, not dumped as a surprise.
The work is assessed according to use, condition, access and the result required.
Send the address or suburb, the spring replacement requirement, approximate extent and a few photos. The reply can then focus on the actual Gordon's Bay site.
Gordon's Bay is coverage from Somerset West, not a second office we invented. Somerset West Garage Doors considers garage-door jobs there: measure, specify type and material, supply-and-fit or repair. Put Gordon's Bay on the message. This hub will not pad itself with a harbour essay, and it will not pretend a workshop sits in town. Salt on a coastal opening is the same False Bay condition as the rest of the basin — a spec note, not a tourism paragraph. Helderberg remains geography; this page is Gordon's Bay as a neighbouring town.
No Gordon's Bay street address, workshop or hours. The job is the opening on the property. This is checked against the spring replacement scope.
Write Gordon's Bay so the measure is booked in the right place. Photos of the opening or the door still start the quote. This is checked against the spring replacement scope.
Sectional, roll-up, tip-up, motors, repairs. Not a shutter-only page and not a gate-motor company. This is checked against the spring replacement scope.
You send photos of the door and the suburb — especially if a spring is visibly broken
We look at both springs, the cables and the leaf weight on site
We replace the set matched to the door, not a single tired coil
We test balance by hand before the motor takes the leaf again
Final recommendations depend on the site. These are useful starting points.
