Sectional Garage Doors
Sectional garage doors are the most popular choice for Australian homes. Made from multiple horizontal panels that glide overhead and sit parallel with the ceiling, they deliver quiet, reliable performance with high-quality, customisable finishes.
Whether you need durable and reliable doors for high traffic families or you want smarter garage access with automation and smart controllers, sectional garage doors are a stylish and practical choice for any home or commercial garage.
What Are Sectional Garage Doors
Sectional garage doors use multiple hinged panels that travel on vertical tracks, curve through a radius, and run along ceiling-mounted horizontal tracks. They open straight up and sit close to the ceiling, so you can park close to the door without needing swing space. Unlike tilt doors that pivot out or roller doors that roll into a drum, sectional doors lift vertically and store flat overhead.
Most sectional doors are made from Colorbond steel by BlueScope, with options in insulated steel panels or composite skins, and a durable PVC bottom seal for weather protection. With quality hardware and correct setup, they offer smooth, quiet operation and strong resistance to wind, rain, and dust compared with tilt garage doors and roller garage doors.
Automation and Smart Features
Modern automatic openers make access as simple as pressing a button. Systems typically include keyring remotes, photo-eye safety sensors that stop and reverse on obstruction, and an emergency key release for manual entry during a power outage or motor fault.
Smart controllers such as e-Door Connect let you monitor and operate your garage door from your phone, check at a glance if it is open or closed, and schedule access for family or trades. Many setups also support alerts, activity logs, and voice or home-hub integration for extra convenience and peace of mind.
Noise and Operation
Sectional garage doors are generally quiet to operate, but noise can develop over time due to a lack of lubrication, worn-out parts or improper installation. If your sectional garage doors are noisy, you may be able to have them serviced, the track realigned, and switch to higher-quality hinges and seals for smooth, silent operation.
It is recommended that sectional garage doors be serviced at least once every two years.
Applications for Residential and Commercial Use
Sectional garage doors are popular with both homes and businesses. Commercial sectional garage doors are constructed with sturdy, heavy duty components to ensure they can handle reliable operation in high traffic settings, while standard sectional garage doors suit everyday use in household garages. Designed for installation in residential properties, sectional garage doors for homes are available in a variety of sizes, typically ranging from 3-6 metres in width.
This allows their durable design to provide protection from the elements, improved garage door run efficiency and long term performance. Sectional garage doors are a smart investment for any new garage door installation or upgrade.
