Canning Vale has been growing in size for more than 30 years. Garage Door designs and technology have evolved significantly during this time, which is why Canning Vale has the widest range of garage doors and carport doors of any area within Perth.
Many houses built in the early years did not have a fully enclosed garage. These Carports were commonly retrofitted with large double tilt doors or a combination of boxed-out double roller doors or back-to-back single roller doors. Houses constructed with a fully enclosed Garage were most commonly fitted with a large double roller door.
Back in these early years, B&D was the go-to manufacturer for double roller doors and Dominator the go-to brand for large double Tilt doors. Roller Doors were almost certainly operated by older generation Merlin 430R or B&D MPC2 operated roller door openers. Tilt doors were fitted with Merlin 230T (Merlin t230) openers or Dominator openers. These Merlin garage door motors, B&D garage door motors, and Dominator garage door motors have been the workhorses behind almost all of the early generation garage doors installed in the Canning Vale area. These brands are still the most trusted brands in Australia.
Over the years Sectional Garage Doors manufactured by B&D, Steel-line, Gliderol, and Centurion, have replaced the aging double Tilt doors and double Roller Doors as the go-to garage doors in the area. Houses built in the area since the late 1990s were almost certainly constructed and supplied with a Sectional Garage Door. Sectional doors installed in Canning Vale from the late 1990s through to 2009 were most commonly installed with a Merlin 230T Garage Door Motor, a Guardian 21230L garage door motor, Dominator Motor, Superlift SDO-1 Garage Door Opener, or a B&D Control-A-Door 4 (CAD4) garage door motor.

The Most Common Garage Door Motor / Garage Door Opener Repair Issues in Canning Vale!
The older generation garage door openers like the Merlin 230T, B&D CAD4, Superlift SDO-1, Seip TM60, Seip TM80 and Guardian 21230L all operate using a limit switch system. With limited circuitry these openers were simply by design and function. Unfortunately, as the limit switches and circuitry in these units starts to corrode, they start to malfunction.
These openers can start to over close or over open, which can cause damage to the garage door motor or the garage door itself. Corroded circuitry will lead to intermittent operational issues such as a failure to recognise coded remotes or a failure to recognise an excessive force. Broken or worn drive gears is another major issue, which can often be attributed to a heavy door, general wear and tear, or excessive loads caused by failing limit switches.
Our Canning Vale Client Reviews
In more recent years with the influx of ‘first home buyer type builders, several rebranded imported openers have been used by manufacturers and builders alike to lower the cost of the garage doors. Unfortunately, a number of these brands have experienced noticeably short life expectancies and we are often called on to replace them after as little as five years.
Replacing old, worn-out garage door motors and garage door openers with genuine Australian manufactures like Merlin, ATA and B&D is one way our customers can guarantee they are going to get a garage door motor or garage door opener that is going to last and be supported by a local manufacturer’s warranty.

Most Common Tilt Door Garage Door Repair Issues in Canning Vale
Tilt doors have one of the most simplistic designs of any garage door design. Tilt doors are essentially one large single panel, supported by two power arms, a set of torsion springs, and a horizontal track system. They have very few moving parts and many of them have an operating life of well over thirty years.
Unfortunately, Tilt doors have many drawer backs.
• The bottom of a tilt door swings outwards which limits the distance at which you can park a car or stand in front of the garage door.
• When the power goes out, anyone who has had to lift a double tilt door manually will tell you how difficult and heavy it can be
• Tilt door springs have a cycle life and will eventually break. If they are not secured bycatch cables, pieces of the tilt springs have been known to cause damage to property and people
• The tilt door is effectively supported by two pivot points on the power arms. If the bearings should wear away or this pivot point fails, the whole door can come down and has been known to cause damage to property and people
“Replacing tilt door springs is an everyday occurrence for our local Canningvale technician. Simply replacing the tilt springs can result in these tilt doors operating effectively for many more years”
However, if the power arms should become worn, then this is a matter of critical importance and is something homeowners should remedy with urgency. A failing power arm is one of the most potentially dangerous situations a homeowner can face. Given the age of most of these Tilt doors to the area, and the extreme cost of replacing these power arms, we recommend our clients upgrade to a New Sectional door whenever a power arm shows signs of deterioration.
Most Common Garage Roller Door Repair Issues in Canning Vale
Most of the Roller Doors installed in the early years of Canning Vale were high quality double B&D roller doors (B&D Roll-A-Door). Simplistic by design and operation, many of these doors have required very little if any maintenance off the years. We are most commonly called upon to replace the aging garage door motors which we simply replace with high quality Merlin MR855MYQ garage door openers or one of the other high-quality Merlin or B&D products.
The two most common repair issues with large double roller doors in Canning Vale are
• Replacing the weather seal on the bottom of the door. These seals harden and disintegrate over time
• Replacing roller door motors or roller door openers
The two most common issues which require our clients to change or upgrade their roller doors in Canning vale are
• Damaged or disintegrating webbing on the side of the door curtain. This is the webbing attached to the edge of the door curtain which allows the door to slide smoothly in the steel tracks.
• Damaged door hubs. The hub is the steel or plastic composite mould surrounding the torsion bar which both the door curtain and torsion springs are attached too. When one of these hubs breaks the structural integrity of the door can not be fixed and the door must be replaced.
Most Common Sectional Garage Roller Door Repair Issues in Canning Vale
Sectional garage doors are the most common garage doors installed on new houses in Canning Vale. These doors have replaced the old tilt doors and double roller doors. A sectional or panel door provides the highest door opening heights available within standard carport or garage roof structures.
Broken cables, broken torsion springs, damaged sectional door motors, worn bearing plates, vehicle damage, broken hinges, and panels rubbing are the most common sectional door issues we deal with on daily basis.
