Quick Answer
Tilt doors are our specialty at both ends of their life: a new one supplied and installed runs $3,000–$5,000 (custom-clad and oversize panels $5,000–$15,000), while renewing the pivot arms and springs on an ageing door is $1,200–$1,800. The tilt design — one rigid panel swinging up on counterweighted arms — suits two situations perfectly: a facade that wants a single seamless face for cladding, and garages with no room overhead for tracks or a drum.
One Face for the Facade — and New Life for Old Doors
Instead of bending through tracks, a tilt (counterweight) door pivots up as one rigid sheet on spring-loaded arms. Architects love what that single surface makes possible: clad the panel in the same material as the surrounding wall and the garage practically disappears from the streetscape.
New panels come made to measure — Colorbond-style steel, or a clad-ready frame awaiting timber battens, composite boards or fibre-cement to suit the build. The engineering detail that matters: counterweights must be specified for the panel's finished weight, cladding included. Get that right at ordering time and the door glides; get it wrong and no amount of later adjustment stops it slamming.
And then there's the existing fleet — Perth suburbs are full of tilt doors from the 70s through the 90s still on factory hardware. A door that's begun sagging to one side, sticking mid-swing or drifting open almost always has healthy steel and worn-out arms. A matched arm-and-spring kit costs a fraction of a new door and keeps a sound panel swinging for another decade.

Request QuoteFrequently Asked Questions
A tilt (or counterweight) door is one rigid panel that pivots up and over on spring-loaded arms — no tracks to bend through, no drum to coil around. That single flat face is the ideal base for architectural cladding, and the mechanism asks for almost no headroom, which is why carports and low garages so often run tilt doors.
