## What affects Garage Door cost

- **Door style:** The biggest driver of garage door cost is the door type you choose. A single roller door starts at AUD 1,800, while a single tilt-a-door is AUD 2,200, a single panel lift is AUD 2,800, and a single panel lift timber-look is AUD 3,800.
- **Door size:** Larger openings increase the new garage door cost because the base rate is multiplied by size. Single (2.4 m) uses x1, Double (4.8 m) uses x1.55, and Triple (7.2 m) uses x2.25.
- **Motor and automation:** Choosing automation increases the automatic garage door cost on a per-door basis. Manual adds AUD 0, chain drive adds AUD 450, belt drive adds AUD 650, and a smart motor with phone control adds AUD 850 per door.
- **Number of doors:** The calculator works per door, so your total garage door replacement cost rises with each additional door. Optional motor costs are also multiplied by the number of doors, and a minimum job charge of AUD 1,200 applies when calculated totals fall below that.
