Tilt Door Sales and Repair

Tilt garage doors (also known as a panel lift garage door) are made from a one piece tilting panel. The panel has pivoting arms at both sides of the garage door opening. When engaged, the door then moves out and up from a vertical position into a horizontal position.They’re easy to use and can be very convenient depending on your circumstances ( these types of doors require space in front of and above the door to open.)

If your garage has extremely limited head height at the opening (for example less than 20cm), a tilt door can be a good option.

For those with taller cars (or ones with roof racks) – especially in older low-ceiling garages, a tilt door is a very good option to maximise space and not worry about causing any damage to your car or your door.

Tilt Door Sales

The Door Doctors stock a wide range of tilt doors and would be pleased to help you with any enquiries you may have whether you wish to replace an existing door, have a new build, or need a repair on an existing door.

We can supply these doors out of many different types of materials at a reasonable cost as it’s just one big sheet. We can offer tilt doors made of plywood, timber, steel, aluminium or others. The door is able to be solid, slatted, or even custom embossed. We can include windows into your design with many options for your privacy as well.

Of course there are many other options with regards to your garage door motor – you’ll just need to choose one suitable for tilt doors. Have a look at our Merlin garage door motors page for more information.

If you do need a replacement, most Tilt-A-Door parts can be reused for the new door. This is both convenient and cost efficient for the end user. The bons is you also don’t limit your design options.

Tilt Door Repair

These doors have a simple mechanism and there are no tracks required, and as such it’s often inexpensive to repair them. We stock a wide range of tilt-a-door parts and would be happy to help you get your door back in working order quickly and with a minimum of fuss. If you’d like one of the friendly team from the Door Doctors to quote you to repair your panel lift door, please give us a call on 3299 2992. We are the tilt-a-door experts and there’s nothing we haven’t seen before or can’t fix. We guarantee we can repair/secure your tilt door upon site visit.

Garage Door Spring Replacement and Repair

If you’re having a problem with the springs in your garage door, Door Doctors can help!

Roller doors, sectional doors, and tilt doors generally all have springs in them which will need to be replaced periodically. Sometimes the torsion springs are okay but the clamps/saddles have slipped due to a faulty install or lack of maintenance – in either case Door Doctors are here to help you with any spring issues your garage door may be having.

Door Spring Replacement

To replace the springs on your garage door you have to release the tension and secure the door to remove the door, roll it out, unpin the hubs, release the clamps, and install the new springs. After this you have to do the same in the reverse order, keeping in mind that it’s a delicate process that requires experience to do safely.

Garage Door Spring Replacement and Repair
A broken spring for a garage door.

DIY roller door spring replacement isn’t recommended as it’s quite easy to damage the door and since the springs are under tension, it’s quite dangerous if you don’t know what you’re doing. Although it may seem like a fairly routine task, it can be quite complicated – and we recommend you call in the experts rather than risking your safety and the health of your door to save a few dollars.

Sectional door springs are typically rated for 10,000 – 20,000 cycles and when one pair breaks, usually the next one will follow. For this reason, we recommend changing all the springs as soon as one goes. Regular maintenance of your garage door will assist in maximising the lifespan of your springs.

The Cost of replacing garage door springs can vary considerably depending on the size of the spring (modern sectional doors have relatively small and inexpensive springs, but older domestic springs are large and can cost more), so please feel free to get in contact with us if you’re interested in a quote – one of our friendly team will be in touch to help!

Satisfaction Guaranteed

No breakdowns will be left nonoperational or unsecure. We guarantee your satisfaction – your door will be back to normal working order as soon as possible.

Simply give us a call on 3299 2992, contact us by clicking here, or email us on [email protected]. We’ll arrange for one of our dedicated breakdown crews to get out to you as quickly as we possibly can.

Garage Door Security with the Door Doctors

According to the MyPolice website, there have been an increase in thieves breaking into townhouses by forcing old roller garage doors. Today we’ll take a look at some tips you can implement in order to maximise your garage door security (and, as a result, your house, car etc.)

Garage door security – keep your place safe with these easy tips:

Garage Door Security with the Door Doctors
Garage Door Security with the Door Doctors
  • Buy a keychain remote opener. Attach it to your keys so it’s not left inside your car, clipped to the visor – if someone steals your car it’ll be easy for them to enter your home.
  • Keep a regular garage door maintenance schedule. An old, corroded, or damaged door will be a lot easier to break into and will compromise your garage door security.
  • Secure your garage door emergency release. You can use zip-ties on the release and it will still be able to function as required, without the security fears of someone being able to use something like a coathanger to release the safety mechanism through a hole in the top of the door. See the video below!
  • If you’re going to be out of town for a period of time, use a padlock on the throw latch (if your door has one) – We’ve also included a video on YouTube below you can view.
  • If you don’t have a throw latch on your garage door, the Queensland Police recommend using a c-clamp tightened down on each side of the door track.
  • Ensure your garage windows are covered up – if you do have anything thieves might be interested in inside your garage they won’t know about it.
  • Don’t leave your keys in your car inside the garage – if the thieves get in it’ll be easy for them to make off with your car as well.
  • If there’s a door into your main residence from the garage, ensure it stays locked and deadbolted as well as using a strong door – if your garage is compromised you don’t anyone coming into your house!

There’s a great video on YouTube which explains the ‘zip tie emergency release’ method in more detail – have a look below!

Merlin to offer smart home garage door openers

Door Doctors preferred supplier Merlin have announced a new range of garage door openers called Merlin MyQ, designed for ‘smart homes’ – so you’re able to control the doors from any internet-enabled device (e.g. smartphone, laptop, tablet).

This represents one less item on the keyring, one less battery to replace, and increased security for the garage doors (the Merlin MyQ app platform uses strong encryption technology and offers choices based on security / convenience).  It can also be configured to open (or simply just opened and closed remotely) for tradesmen or delivery drivers, so you don’t need to be at home when they come by.

Merlin Commander MyQGrant Emanuel, the head of marketing at Chamberlain Australia (Merlin owner) has been quoted as follows: “Automating your garage door with the PowerLift MyQ not only makes getting in and out of your home much easier, it also solves those panic moments when you rush out of the house to get to work and then question whether you left the garage door open or not.”

The app will notify homeowners any time the garage door is opened or closed, which will lead to better security and increased peace of mind for those who have valuables in their garage or it connects to the rest of the house.

The PowerLift MyQ will include obstruction detection safety beams and premium reversal technology which will protect children, pets, the car, or anything else that may get in the way of the door. It can be attached to single or double sectional doors up to 16m² and, like the rest of the Merlin product range, is protected by a seven-year warranty and Merlin’s excellent after sales support service.
