Garage Door Installation and Repair cost in Australia
Garage door pricing in Australia is set by door type, width and whether automation is included. Roller doors are the cheaper option for a single garage, while insulated sectional doors cost more but perform better for thermal and noise control. Repairs range from a simple service call through to spring or motor replacement, which need a licensed technician because of the tension and electrical work involved.

Common questions
Is a roller door or a sectional door cheaper to install?
A single roller door supplied and installed typically runs $1,200 to $3,500, while a single sectional door costs more at $2,500 to $5,000 because of its insulated multi-panel construction. Roller doors are the cheaper option for a standard single garage.
How much does it cost to replace a garage door spring?
Spring replacement typically costs $250 to $550 per pair, including parts and labour. It is not a DIY job: garage door springs are under very high tension and incorrect handling can cause serious injury.
Should I repair a damaged panel or replace the whole door?
Panel repair or replacement usually costs $200 to $750, well under the $1,200 to $3,500 cost of a new roller door or the $2,500 to $5,000 cost of a new sectional door. Repair is worth pursuing unless several panels are damaged or the door is failing elsewhere too.
Do I need to budget separately for a motor or opener?
Yes, unless you are quoted a supplied-and-installed price that already includes automation. A motor or opener supplied and installed typically costs $400 to $1,200 on top of a manual door, or less if you are only replacing an existing motor.
