VIP Garage Doors assesses faulty garage door motors and provides replacement opener installation across Melbourne’s north, north-east, east and nearby inner suburbs. The complete door is checked before a new motor is recommended.
Does the garage door motor need repair or replacement?
A door that will not move is not always a motor failure. Door balance, springs, cables, tracks, remotes and power supply can produce similar symptoms, so the complete system should be assessed before a replacement is recommended.
The motor hums, strains or makes grinding noises
The opener runs but the door does not move normally
The door stops, reverses or loses its travel limits
Remotes and wall controls no longer operate the opener
The existing unit is unreliable or no longer economical to repair
Do not keep forcing the opener.Stop if the door is crooked, unusually heavy or making loud mechanical noises. A spring, cable or track fault may be placing extra load on the motor.

Garage door motor and opener replacement questions
Does a door that will not open always need a new motor?
No. The cause could be the motor, remote, power, travel settings or a door fault such as a broken spring or cable. The system should be checked before replacement is confirmed.
Can you replace motors on different garage door types?
We work with sectional, roller and tilt doors. The suitable opener depends on the door type, size, weight, balance and installation layout.
Are remotes set up with the new opener?
During installation, compatible remotes supplied with the replacement are programmed and the opener’s travel is set and tested.
How much does a garage door motor replacement cost?
Indicative pricing starts from $850 for a single garage door and $950 for a double garage door. Final pricing depends on the opener and installation requirements, access and site conditions.
