- Motors burning out on double-garage doors that have gone out of balance over time
- Remote range dropping off as original receiver components age

Frequently Asked Questions
A struggling motor on a double-garage door is almost always a balance issue caused by weakened springs. As springs lose tension, the motor has to work harder to lift the door’s full weight, which causes premature burnout. We always check and address spring tension before replacing a motor.
For non-urgent repairs, we typically book within one to two business days in Burwood Heights. For same-day attendance on urgent faults, call us directly and we will confirm availability when you phone.
Yes. If the existing door frame and tracks are in good condition, we can often fit new panels to an existing sectional door frame, giving a fresh look without the full replacement cost. We assess the existing hardware on site and advise on whether this is viable for your specific door.
A door that reverses before it reaches the ground usually has a faulty safety beam sensor, a travel limit that has drifted, or an obstruction the sensor is detecting. Safety beam faults are the most common cause and are straightforward to diagnose and fix on a service visit.
Yes. We stock common heavy-duty torsion springs for double-garage doors on our service vehicles. In most cases we can complete the spring replacement in a single visit without ordering parts.
Yes, provided the existing door is structurally sound and properly balanced. We assess the door before quoting to confirm that a motor retrofit is the right call, rather than a full replacement that would give better long-term results.
Yes. We offer Saturday appointments in Burwood Heights for both urgent and non-urgent work. Saturday slots are popular so we recommend booking a few days in advance for non-emergency weekend repairs.
