Wide doors for a garden suburb
St Ives grew in the 1960s and 70s, and its ranch-style homes came with wide double garages that were ahead of their time. Many still run their original doors, which means heavy panels, tired springs and openers from another era.
- Original-door replacements
Modern insulated doors for 60s and 70s double garages.
- Single-storey quiet
Belt-drive openers for garages beside bedrooms.
- Canopy care
Debris clearing and storm-damage repairs under mature trees.
Our typical St Ives job replaces those originals with insulated modern sectionals in profiles that suit low-slung brick facades. The suburb's tree canopy means we also do our share of debris cleaning and storm repairs, and quiet openers matter in these single-storey homes where the garage adjoins bedrooms.
Common jobs in St Ives: Replacing original 1960s and 70s doors is the staple: heavy first-generation panels swapped for insulated sectionals in profiles that suit low-slung ranch facades. The tree canopy adds steady track-cleaning and storm-repair work, and quiet openers matter in these single-storey homes where the garage adjoins bedrooms. Our 2026 pricing guide shows what an original-door replacement typically costs. Original doors here are often wider than modern standard sizes, so we measure first and order panels to suit rather than shrinking the opening with packers and infill.

Garage door questions from St Ives
Answers to the questions St Ives homeowners ask before replacing or repairing a garage door.
How much does a new double garage door cost in St Ives?
Most St Ives double garages suit an insulated sectional door, which typically costs $1,800 to $4,500 supplied and installed, depending on size, finish and insulation. Adding a quality opener is usually $600 to $1,600. We measure on site and give a fixed price, including GST, before anything is ordered.
Is it worth replacing an original 1960s or 70s garage door?
Usually, yes. Original doors in St Ives are heavy, poorly sealed and often running on tired springs. A modern insulated sectional is lighter on the opener, quieter, seals out leaves and draughts, and lets you add safety features like auto-reverse. If your door is sound, we will say so and service it instead.
What garage door services do you provide in St Ives?
St Ives work centres on its wide 60s and 70s garages: replacing heavy original doors with insulated sectionals, choosing profiles for low-slung brick facades, fitting quiet openers for single-storey living and clearing canopy debris. Storm repairs are a regular part of the mix.
Can you fit a quiet opener to a garage next to a bedroom?
Yes. In St Ives' single-storey homes the garage often shares a wall with bedrooms, so we fit belt-drive openers with soft start and stop, add nylon rollers and balance the door properly. Together these remove most of the noise and vibration that travels through the house.
Do you service St Ives Chase, Gordon and Pymble too?
Yes. Our Upper North Shore technicians cover St Ives, St Ives Chase, Gordon, Pymble and East Killara Monday to Saturday from 7am to 6pm, with same-day visits for urgent faults when you call early.
