Our two-step process includes door servicing and motor selection based on weight, material, and weather conditions. Every installation includes safety checks, wireless control setup, and a free service to ensure optimal performance.

Grifco commercial openers are supplied and installed for sectional and roller doors, with immediate parts availability. Our team handles installations in 3-5 hours, including safety beams, control panels, and MyQ upgrades. Post-installation servicing extends equipment life and maintains operational efficiency for businesses.

Andrew arrived on time and besides being very personable, he is also professional. Gave him two difficult doors to fix and he was able to come up with solutions for both. Very reasonably priced. This is the second time we have used his services and we recommend him very highly. Thanks Chris

From the initial phone call, right through to the completion of the job Andrew and his team were really professional.
Andrew designed and manufactured a garage tilt door to suit our renovated workers cottage in Spring Hill. Keeping to traditional looking batons, the door stays in keeping with the house style, but is very functional. We would highly recommend Sid's Door Services.
