Cracked Panels
Repair or replacement of panels with stress cracks, impact damage, or structural splits that compromise door integrity. Suited to doors where cracks haven’t spread extensively and the surrounding structure remains sound.
Most panel replacement jobs are completed within 2-3 hours. Single panel replacements often take 1-2 hours, while multiple panel jobs may require a half day. We’ll provide realistic timeframes during our initial assessment.
We can often achieve good matches on older doors through careful colour matching, though exact matches become more challenging with discontinued styles or significantly aged finishes. Our section matching service includes colour analysis to get the closest possible result.
Most sectional garage doors with individual panel construction are suitable for panel replacement, including steel, aluminium, and composite doors. Roller doors and one-piece tilt doors typically require different repair approaches.
Minor dents and surface scratches can often be repaired, while cracked, severely dented, or rusted panels typically need replacement. Panels that affect door operation, have structural damage, or compromise security should be replaced rather than patched. Our assessment examines damage extent, repair feasibility, and long-term durability to recommend the most cost-effective solution.
Your garage door should operate smoothly with improved appearance and restored structural integrity. New panels may show slight colour variation initially that often becomes less noticeable with weathering. Regular maintenance keeps all panels in good condition in Perth’s climate.
