Garage doors across the Hunter Valley
Machinery sheds, workshops, warehouse roller doors and the family double. One door trade for every door on the place, Branxton to Broke.
More than one door on the place? Start the Door Muster and send the whole tally in one enquiry.
What we do
The doors we work
Every job gets the same treatment: look at the door properly, say what it needs in plain terms, quote before anything comes apart.
Shed + machinery-shed doors
Roller doors for machinery sheds, hay sheds and workshops. Specced for the span, the gear that passes under it and the weather on its face.
Door repairs, valley-wide
Snapped springs, doors off their tracks, openers that have given up. The everyday faults, fixed properly, anywhere on the map.

The Door Muster
How many doors on your place?
Out here a property is rarely one door. There is the house double, the machinery shed, the workshop, sometimes a coolroom. The Door Muster tallies the lot: span, workload and anything each door is doing wrong.
It hands back your property's door schedule, which door is working hardest, what each symptom most likely means, and where a scheduled service would earn its keep. Then the whole muster goes into one enquiry.

Where we work
Worked ground, not a service-area circle
The valley is three different jobs wearing one postcode map, and we plan the runs that way.
Pokolbin + Broke
Sheds out here run wide and work hard. We spec, repair and service 4 and 5 metre spans with dust, dry heat and west weather in mind, and we plan around the property's calendar.
Denman + the Upper Hunter
Denman is the far end of the map. Say what needs doing when you enquire, so one trip can cover every door that needs a hand.
Why doors wear out here
Dry heat, dust and the west wind
Heat on the seals
Summers out here sit around 29 and 30 degrees for weeks, and bottom seals perish years before the steel shows its age. Daylight under the door is the early tell.
Dust in the tracks
Gravel drives and worked paddocks put fine dust through rollers, bearings and opener rails. It grinds quietly until something binds. A service clears it before it costs parts.
Wind on big faces
A 5 metre shed door is a sail when the westerlies come through. Curtain guides, wind bracing and honest advice about exposure are part of any big shed door we quote.

A wound spring is a strainer under load. What that means for the bang you heard and why the bracket stays bolted.
