What moves the price of a new garage door
Roller or sectional
A roller door is a single steel curtain on a drum and is the cheaper door to make and to fit. A sectional door is hinged panels on tracks that run up and back along the ceiling, with more hardware and more fitting time, so it starts higher.
Single or double
A standard single opening in Australia is about 2.4 metres wide and 2.1 metres high; a double runs 4.8 to 5.4 metres wide. A double door is twice the curtain or panel area, heavier springs and often a stronger motor, which is why it sits at the top of the standard range.
Material, finish and insulation
Plain Colorbond steel in a standard colour is the baseline. Insulated panels, timber-look or woodgrain finishes, aluminium slats and glazed sections each add to the door's price before fitting.
Motor and accessories
The door price covers a manual door. A motor fitted and programmed adds $750–$1,150, phone control $250–$420, and extra remotes are $85 each plus one $110 attendance to code them.
The opening itself
Removing the old door is included. Low headroom, a sloping floor, an opening that is out of square or brickwork that needs altering all add fitting time, and we tell you so at the measure.
Oversized, custom and commercial
Three-car widths, extra-high openings, wind-rated or made-to-order doors and anything on a commercial site move out of the standard range and are quoted from $5,500 once we have the opening size and specification.
Worked examples
Single roller door on a 1980s brick-and-tile home
A standard-width Colorbond roller door, the old door removed and the new one fitted to the existing opening. Sits in the lower half of $2,200–$5,500. A motor on top is $750–$1,150 if the old door was manual.
Double sectional door replacing a tired tilt door
A double Colorbond sectional door with new tracks and springs, the tilt door and its arms taken away. Sits near the top of $2,200–$5,500, with the motor priced separately. Insulated or woodgrain panels push it into the custom band.
High opening on a new build with a boat to fit under
An over-height, made-to-order door with a heavier spring set and a motor rated for it. Quoted from $5,500 after we have the opening size, the clearance you need and the finish you want.
The door has to come down for rendering, then go back up
Not a new door at all. A roller door taken down and refitted is $800–$1,400 and a sectional door $900–$1,400, which is often the right answer when the door itself is still sound.
New door, or repair the one you have?
A new door is the right buy when the door itself has had its life; a repair is the right buy when one part has. A spring is $260–$340, a cable $260–$520 and a new motor $750–$1,150, so the question is whether the next repair is the last one.
Repair is usually better when
- The curtain or panels are straight and the steel is sound, and only a spring, cable, roller or motor has failed
- The door is a current make with parts still available
- You are happy with how the door looks and want it to keep working, not to change it
- A tilt door with a sound frame only needs its arms kit and springs, $1,100–$1,900
Replacement may be better when
- Rust has gone through the bottom rail or panels, or the curtain has been folded
- Panels are twisted from repeated off-track runs and no longer seal
- Parts for the make have dried up, so every repair is a workaround
- You want insulation, a quieter door, a new colour or a sectional door where a tilt door was

How we quote a new garage door
Tell us about the opening
Single or double, what door is there now, and a photo of the opening from inside and out. That alone narrows the range.
We measure on site
Width, height, headroom, side room and the floor line, because a door ordered off a rough measurement is the expensive mistake in this trade.
One fixed price, before anything is ordered
Door, tracks, hardware, fitting, removal of the old door and any motor or accessories you choose, as one GST-inclusive figure.
Fitted and handed over
The old door goes with us, the new one is balanced, the motor programmed and the remotes coded, and you are shown how to release it by hand.

Frequently Asked Questions
A new standard roller or sectional door costs $2,200–$5,500 in Perth, supplied and installed, GST included, with the old door removed. Single roller doors sit at the bottom of the range and double sectional doors near the top. Oversized, premium-insulated and commercial doors are quoted from $5,500, and a motor adds $750–$1,150. The exact figure is fixed after we measure the opening, before anything is ordered.
Our range is the two together: the door, new tracks and hardware, the fitting, and removal of the old door are one price, $2,200–$5,500 for a standard residential door. The only things priced separately are a motor and its accessories, because many people keep a working opener or do not want one. Our installation page sets out what the day involves.
A double door sits in the upper half of the $2,200–$5,500 standard range when it is a plain Colorbond roller or sectional door. Insulated panels, woodgrain or timber-look finishes, glazing or an over-height opening take it into the custom band, quoted from $5,500. Add $750–$1,150 for a motor sized to a double door's weight.
A single Colorbond roller door is the lowest-priced new door we fit and sits at the bottom of the $2,200–$5,500 range, installed with the old door removed. If you want it automated, a roller-door motor is $750–$1,150 fitted and programmed; a manual lock comes off when a motor goes on. Our roller door installation page has the detail.
A standard single garage door opening is about 2.4 metres wide by 2.1 metres high, and a standard double is 4.8 to 5.4 metres wide by 2.1 to 2.4 metres high. Most Perth homes built since the 1990s are close to those sizes, which is what keeps a replacement door in the standard price range. Openings outside them, or with low headroom, are measured and quoted as custom.
A steel roller door that is kept balanced and clean commonly lasts twenty years or more, and the springs and motor wear out well before the curtain does. Near the coast, salt shortens the life of the springs, cables and bottom rail, and a door left out of balance wears everything faster. A yearly service is the cheapest way to get the full life out of a new door.
Yes. Taking down the old door, its tracks and springs, and disposing of them is part of the installed price. If the old door has to come down well before the new one goes up, for rendering or building work, that is the removal-and-reinstall job instead: $800–$1,400 for a roller door and $900–$1,400 for a sectional door.
Almost always, when one part has failed on a sound door. A spring is $260–$340, a cable $260–$520, a new motor $750–$1,150 and a tilt-door arms kit with springs $1,100–$1,900, each a fraction of a new door. Replacement wins when the steel has rusted through, the panels are twisted, or parts for the make have dried up. Our repair cost guide prices the repairs, and we quote both ways when it is close.
