Family homes, and the edge of the wind
Bothasig sits between Edgemead and Milnerton, and its doors get the first of the West Coast wind without the salt. Steel sectionals and tip-ups from the eighties on family houses, with the ordinary spring and roller work, and hinges and brackets on the west-facing doors that the wind works loose. A cable and track visit here often starts with a bracket.
Richwood and the newer streets
Toward Richwood the newer complexes have developer sectionals and the year-four motor failure, with a motor sized for the door the fix that lasts. A dozen garages on a shared wall and a remote opening the wrong door is the other complex call.
Getting here
Bothasig is off the N7 and quick to reach. Edgemead, Milnerton and Goodwood share the routes, and an emergency is at the fast end.
