Tilt doors are a single panel that pivots up and over, often found on older Gold Coast homes. They rely on springs or counterweights at each side, and when those wear the door becomes heavy or won't stay open. We repair tilt doors and their hardware.
Custom doors are built to match the house: timber-look slats, horizontal battens or panels that line up with the cladding beside them. If a standard door won't suit your façade, we can talk through what's possible.

Near the beach?
Tilt door springs and arms sit right at the opening, where they catch the most salt and rain. Keeping them lubricated makes a big difference near the beach.
Tilt and custom doors questions
Can a tilt door be motorised?
