Garage Door Prices

[DIY inept]

Hi

Does anyone know the comparison in prices between Tilt vs Roller vs Sectional panel doors?

I'm preliminary planning the next shed and the shed builders seem to offer roller as standard....

Thanks in advance

Sectional or tilts are more expensive than rollerdoors, which is why you tend to see rollers on sheds as they typically are selling you the most cost effective option.

Likewise, installing a tilt or panel lift door into a shed is going to be more expensive, as tilt door or panel lift doors are usually designed to be installed onto a flat ceiling. The runners/guides and the motor are usually hung from the flat ceiling. To put them into a gable shed requires a bit more steel work to mount the guides and motors.

That being said it is not much drama for any shed installer who knows what they are doing.

I did my doors couple of yrs ago ands was looking at rollers thinking huge cost savings over tilt panels. Then talking to one of the reps he asked why roller and I said because of cost. He said cost between the two was bugger all. In the end I got two tilt panels fully automated with remotes for around $3500. Wasn't far off the roller cost at the time but after having the tilt panels I'd never go back to a roller door.

Thanks for that!
I'll get both quoted I think! :)
