Roller shutter door spares in Cape Town are almost always needed at short notice, and the difference between a door back in service today and a door out for a fortnight is whether the part is held locally. We stock the parts our own doors use and the common sizes for the makes that keep turning up on Peninsula sites.

Stainless and marine-grade hardware
This is what we get asked for most and what most suppliers do not hold. Stainless end locks, stainless fixings, coated bearings and marine-grade bottom rails cost more per item than the standard equivalents and they are the difference between a repair that lasts and one that comes back. On a property near the surf we will not fit the standard part and pretend it will do.
Bottom rails and seals
The bottom rail is the first thing to go on a coastal door and the part that decides whether the door seals against driven rain. We hold heavier rails and better seal profiles in the common sizes, because on this coast those two items account for a large share of all repairs.
Garage door spares
We carry torsion and extension springs, cables, drums, rollers, hinges, brackets and operator parts for sectional and roll-up garage doors, including galvanised and stainless cables for coastal properties.
Identifying the right part
Send photographs of the fault, the barrel end, the guide section and any plate on the motor, plus the opening width, and tell us roughly how far the property is from the sea. That last detail changes what we send.
Parts for older and obsolete doors
Doors on the older Epping, Paarden Eiland and Salt River industrial stock are frequently out of production. We fabricate slats, adapt guides and machine barrel components where the profile no longer exists, and we say plainly when adapting is a stopgap.
Supply only or supply and fit
We sell parts across the counter to maintenance teams, managing agents and contractors who do their own work, and we fit them where you would rather the job was warranted end to end. Tension component work is worth having done by someone with the correct tools.
Ordering roller shutter door spares in Cape Town
Send photos and the opening size. We confirm the part, the grade, the price and whether it is in stock or on order before you commit.
Common questions
About roller shutter door spares and replacement parts
Yes. We supply springs, motors and gearboxes, slats, bottom rails, guide rails, bearings, chains, remotes and safety edges over the counter. For anything involving spring tension we would strongly suggest a technician — springs under load cause serious injuries every year.
Send a photograph of the drive and the end plate along with the opening width and height. That identifies most doors. If the make is unclear, a photo of the slat profile usually settles it.
We hold the common wear parts for most makes in circulation here, and can order in for others. Where a range has been discontinued and parts genuinely no longer exist, we say so upfront instead of stringing it out.
Yes, and it is usually the right call. A curtain with two or three damaged slats near the bottom rail does not need replacing — those slats come out individually, which costs a fraction of a new door.
