Mont Belvieu's rebuilt center and its garage door hardware

Mont Belvieu's homes cluster around a town that was rebuilt two miles from its original site after a 1985 salt-dome explosion forced about 200 families out, and the population has nearly doubled since, from 3,835 to 7,654 between the 2010 and 2020 census alone. That concentrated growth means most garage door hardware in town — springs, cables, openers — is running on roughly the same generation of parts, so failures tend to arrive in the same few years across many houses rather than trickling in one at a time the way an older, more spread-out town would see.
