Had my garage tilt door serviced. Darren was prompt in arriving, serviced everything quickly and professionally and even helped my neighbour with a new battery for her garage remote. Very happy with everything, including cost which was very reasonable.

My garage door was going up and down all on its own so I calledEastern Garage Doors and spoke with a very friendly and knowledgeable lady who organized a technician for the following day. I was kept up to date with his name and time of arrival.He knew exactly what he was doing and fixed the problem. My door now works beautifully again.

This company was exceptional to deal with from start to finish. Everything was explained thoroughly firstly from Tom who advised me about my new remote garage door and Cameron and his helper who fitted my new garage door. The price was very reasonable too!It was great to deal with such a highly organized company with friendly office ladies. Cannot recommend them enough!

Honest and reliable. I got a quote for a new motor and booked someone to come for an installation. The techinician who came was honest enough to advise me the motor just needs a new gear. I still ended up getting a new motor from Eastern because the manufacturer of my old motor quoted a ridiculous price for just a gear replacement. I am very happy with my new Merlin set.

It was an absolutely five-star experience from start to finish from Eastern Garage Doors.

Highly recommended!

Dealing with Eastern Garage Doors was just a breeze. We needed a new garage door motor and sliding gate motor. Price was good, but their service was sensational, communication spot on, and arrived when they said they would. Warranties lodged with manufacturer for us. Hard to find such exceptional service these days.

Joe and Tom replaced the broken springs on our apartment block basement garage door. They arrived on time, were very cognisant of residents needing to exit their vehicles and serviced the door system. They spotted 2 broken hinges and fortunately had them on-hand and replaced the broken hinges at the same time. All in all an excellent cost effective outcome. We have used EGD experienced staff previously and will continue to do so moving forwards

We’re very happy with the whole process of acquiring our new garage door from Eastern Garage Doors. The door was manufactured and installed at a reasonable price and within the promised time frame. The door looks fabulous and works perfectly.Special thanks to Tom (who offered very helpful suggestions and carefully prepared a detailed quote); to Georgina in the office (who cheerfully & promptly handled the admin work and answered all my questions) and finally to Cameron & Dylan (who did an absolutely brilliant job installing the garage). I highly recommend this company.

I had a broken spring repaced by these guys. It is seldom that I have experienced such good service in recent times. Their office is courteous and efficient, the guys replacing the springs did an excellent job. They keep you informed and do what they promise. I have dealt with other providers in the past, these guys are head and shoulders better.

I originally was impressed. The salesman explained everything so I understood and the installer did a great job. About 12 months later I had a problem with my security door so I rang to ask how I could try and fix it or whether it was covered under the warranty. I was told it must be movement of the house (house is 12 years old so it’s not) or I pay $95 call out fee. If it’s not under warranty I just wanted to know (in layman’s terms) how to adjust. This experience put a real damper on the great one I had at time of purchase

Our experience of dealing with Eastern Garage Doors was brilliant. They are so easy to deal with... from the super enthusiastic Tom who visited and provided the quotation, to the lovely Georgia in the office who organized the installation date, to the team who came and put our new door in (and took the old door away). They were all efficient, knowledgeable, professional and polite. A real pleasure to deal with. We could not recommend Eastern Garage Door enough!

I got 4 quotes on my front gate controller and all the other companies didn't even bother coming and said I needed to buy an entire new gate system. John was great, he came to quote and spent a good half hour trying to determine the fault. After determining it was most likely the controller he quoted on replacing that first, before having to change the gate arms too (which would have been a new system). Controller worked and the cost was a quarter of the cost of a new system. It's refreshing to see that there are still good, honest tradesmen out there. Thanks John and the team at Eastern Garage Doors.

They are incredibly friendly and extremely knowledgeable about what they do, and their responses are impressively fast. Before finding this store, I had my garage door installed by another company, and I truly regret it. This company was able to fix even the garage door that was installed elsewhere and provided me with a perfect solution. They also identified the exact parts I needed. I highly recommend them.

Superb service! Darren and Tom have replaced our 20+ year old garage door mechanism with new state of the art Merlin opener plus new springs and cable. Totally worth it! Almost silent instead of terrible rattling and groaning noises, and they did the work in less time than they estimated and arrived early. Can’t ask for better service from these expert guys! Thanks gentlemen.

I was so very happy with the service provided by Eastern Garage Doors. My roller door had stopped working and I phoned a few companies only to be put on hold and not giving me a quote or any reassurance about fixing my problem. THEN I luckily phoned Eastern Garage Doors. I was pleasantly greeted with a lovely friendly voice ( Emily I think) who reassured me, gave me a quote and arranged Darren to come out within the hour. Darren arrived and explained what the problem was and fixed the door within 10 minutes.Darren was polite and efficient.Thank you Eastern Garage Doors.Happy CustomerMeg

Sent both very detailed photos of damages and gave measurements of door and drum diameters to avoid multiple trips hence cost. Eastern Garage was chosen for earlier attendance to repairs. Fixed this morning with minimum of fuss and was a clean job. Tradesmen friendly and not time wasting. Very highly recommended! Thank you Eastern Garage Door, Georgia and Tom.

we had an issue 2 weeks outside of the warranty. The problem was with the parts installed last year. When I called the immediate reponse was "well it is out of warranty so we will have to charge" not a good start. I was then told that I caused the problem, um how could the phone operator have any idea of this. Apparently her mind powers told her that I had disengaged the cable that hangs down. Not sure how this is even possible when I am outside of the garage, if only I had such abilities.The only positive is that they answer the phone quickly but we will never use this company again, support is 0/10ETA I think you missed the point of the review. Your workmanship failed 2 weeks post 12 mth warranty and you blame the customer, this is not a good review. It is great you are happy that you did not have to come and fix your work, that speaks volumes.

From the very get go eastern garage doors was thorough in coming up with the best solution. We have limited height clearance so Eastern garage was very honest and upfront about the options available to us. We settled on a custom clad tilt door which is a massive upgrade on what we had. The back and forth communication was prompt and clear. They did a similarly great job to a colleague who I've recommended them to. Will definitely recommend to others.

Cost of service was exactly as quoted and serviceman was knowledgeable and informative without being condescending.

No pushy sales pitch just did as requested and was happy to provide answers to my questions after completing the service. I definitely recommend this company and will use them again in the future.
