Choose your new door
Replacing a door is a chance to upgrade. Popular choices include:
- •Swapping an old roller door for a sectional door for a modern look, better sealing and insulation options
- •A new Colorbond roller door in a colour that matches your roof and trims
- •A timber look door for warmth without maintenance
- •A custom or tilt door clad to match your renovation
We'll check your headroom, side room and opening before recommending a door, so your new door fits properly. See How to Choose the Right Garage Door.
Our replacement process
- 1
Free measure and quote: we measure your opening, check the existing frame and talk through door styles, colours and motors.
- 2
Confirm your door: choose your design, or visit our Dandenong showroom to see doors in person.
- 3
Made to measure: your new door is built to fit your opening.
- 4
Remove and install: on installation day we remove your old door, make any adjustments to the opening, install and motorise the new door, test the safety features and show you how it works.
Upgrade your motor at the same time
If your opener is old, replacing it with your door is the most cost-effective time to do it. Modern motors offer smoother, quieter operation, safety beams, auto-reverse, battery backup for blackouts and optional smartphone control.
How much does garage door replacement cost?
The cost depends on the new door's type, size, material and finish, whether you add insulation or a new motor, and what's involved in removing the old door. A single roller door replacement is at the budget end, while large insulated, timber-clad or custom doors cost more. Book a free measure and quote for a fixed, written price.
Frequently asked questions
Can I replace a roller door with a sectional door?+
Usually, yes. Sectional doors often need less headroom than roller doors, but they need clear ceiling space for the tracks. We'll check your garage during the measure and let you know what will fit.
Can I keep my existing motor?+
Sometimes. If your motor is in good condition and compatible with the new door, it may be reused. Often a new door is the best time to upgrade to a quieter, safer motor with battery backup.
