Looking for a new garage door motor in Perth? We supply and install the Capital 1100N and 1500N openers from our partner Capital Garage Doors for $770–$990 — a single figure that buys the belt rail, a pair of remotes, the wall control, safety sensors, programming, and disposal of whatever it replaces. Both run near-silent belt drives with app control and an onboard LED, behind a 5-year warranty you can extend to 7.
Already have an opener that just needs fixing? We repair every major motor brand in Perth — Merlin, B&D, ATA, Gliderol, Centurion and more.
Torn between fixing and replacing? Our garage door repair cost guide lays out what Perth jobs actually cost, and when the existing opener deserves saving, the opener repair service often can. For the replacement figure by itself, see the garage door motor replacement cost guide.

Why owners pick them
Everything a Modern Opener Should Do
The feature list is identical across both Capital motors — your only decision is the pulling force your door calls for.
Soft start & stop
Every cycle ramps in and eases out — kinder on your ears and on the door's hardware alike.
WiFi app control
Open, close and check the door from your phone — from the driveway or the other side of the country.
Battery backup option
With the optional battery fitted, blackouts change nothing — no reaching for the release cord.
Built-in LED lighting
The onboard LED strip floods the garage as the door starts moving, then times itself out.
Auto-reverse safety
Beam sensors watch the opening — anything in the way and the door stops dead, then lifts clear.
How it works
From Motor to Moving Door
Force flows in one clean line — which is exactly why a well-matched motor stays quiet for years.
The drive unit generates the force
Inside the head unit, mains power becomes up to 1100 N or 1500 N of managed pull — ramped in gently so nothing ever jolts.
The belt rail carries it forward
That force travels the rail on a reinforced belt — gliding where the chains of older openers ground and clattered.
The trolley and arm pull the door
A trolley tracks along the rail, and its linkage arm hands the pull to your sectional door's top panel.
The springs balance the weight
The heavy lifting belongs to the springs; the motor merely steers a balanced door. That division of labour is the whole secret to quiet, long-lived openers.
An opener that strains, clicks or dies mid-travel might not be finished — try our garage door opener repair service before writing it off.

Fitted by our team
Installed and Tested by Perth Technicians
An opener performs exactly as well as its installation. Ours are hung level, tensioned and programmed by the same local crew you'll reach on the phone later.
Motor sizing happens at your door — standard doors take the 1100N, big or insulated ones the 1500N.
The outgoing opener is safely disconnected, taken down, and leaves on our ute.
Before we pack up: remotes paired, wall control wired, app running on your phone.
The safety pass covers auto-reverse, spring balance and travel limits — set and verified.
Two hours is the usual ceiling for a swap, and same-day slots run metro-wide.
