Panel lift doors are the most adaptable of all the products we offer at Dandenong Garage Doors. They are highly customisable making tilt doors a suitable option for both standard and high-level design projects.
The Panel Lift Tilt Door Design Process
Many of our past clients have preferred to match the flush of their doors with their building’s façade so that when the door is in a closed position, it blends in with its surroundings. This effect is achieved by installing a frame only, which is designed to pair with the nominated cladding. Then, the builder or homeowner will clad the panel lift door and the wall surrounding it to achieve a beautiful, seamless look. This is a popular option for tilt garage doors in Melbourne’s residential areas.
We are able to apply a range of claddings to your panel lift door, including Colorbond sheeting as a standard option, or western red cedar wood as a premium design option. We can even manufacture specialised panel lift tilt doors equipped with a counterweight to balance heavy cladding where necessary.
Use our colour chart to help you perfectly match your new panel lift garage door’s colour to the colour of your home.

Tilt Panel Lift Garage Doors FAQ’s
What is a panel lift garage door?
As the name suggests, a panel lift garage door is a door made from a single panel, compared to other styles which will be comprised of multiple different panels. It operates on pivoting arms that tilt the door up, projecting the door panel outside the opening when in an open position. A number of cladding/design options are available for panel lift doors to suit your home’s facade, so working with an experienced garage door provider is a great way to ensure that your panel door is suited to the style you’re looking to achieve.
How does a tilt garage door work?
A tilt garage door operates on pivoting arms and a Jamb or Track system that tilts the door up into the ceiling space. This type of door doesn’t require a large overhead clearance. Depending on the installation the door panel may project outside of the opening when in an open position.
How much does a tilt garage door cost?
The price of a tilt panel garage door will depend on elements such as the size, the type of hardware required (e.g. track type hardware or remotes) and the colours, materials or cladding you choose. A tilt garage door installer will be able to give you an exact quote.
How do you install a panel lift garage door?
There are a number of risks involved in the DIY installation of a panel lift garage door and is a job best left for the professionals. The difficulty of installing a panel lift garage door typically requires the skills of a fully-qualified garage door installer.
