The perfect power partner for tilt doors
If your home has a tilt-style garage door, Merlin offers a smart, cost-effective way to automated. With advanced safety, security, and energy-efficient features, experience modern convenience to classic garage setups — all backed by expert installation and support.
You know the one – a single panel door that, when lifted, pivots back flat into your ceiling space? Well, now there’s good news from Merlin – the Commander Elite MS105MYQ, is our leading garage door opener compatible with tilt doors.
Designed specifically for tilt doors, the Commander Elite is one of the most effective solutions available for this type of setup. It offers a modern edge to any door - whether you're updating an older tilt door or installing a new, architecturally designed garage door - making it a smart choice for both renovations and contemporary builds.
You can now simply and easily have a Commander Elite MS105MYQ garage door opener installed by a Merlin Professional Dealer for a fraction of the cost of a brand-new garage door - or opt for the designer tilt door of your dreams, knowing it can be effortlessly automated.
Manufactured by The Chamberlain Group, the world’s largest producer of garage door openers, the Commander Elite is packed with features:
- Security+ 2.0® technology operates on the strongest frequency available to virtually eliminate interference and improve transmitter range — so you can open your garage door from further away.
- Energy efficient, using less than one watt of power while on standby.
- Manual release feature ensures access during power failures.
- Quiet operation with soft start and stop functionality for smooth performance.
- Automatic safety reverse — if the door is obstructed while closing, it will automatically reverse, offering peace of mind when kids or pets are nearby.
Whether it’s raining or sunny, there are countless things you’d rather be doing than hauling your garage door up and down — and now, you don’t have to. And importantly, you shouldn’t let the fear of not being able to automate stop you from choosing the garage door you really want. With the Commander Elite MS105MYQ, even older tilt doors or new architecturally designed doors can be easily automated for modern convenience.
Marketing Manager Grant Emanuel said the Commander Elite was developed specifically for tilt doors:
“This means that manual, older-style tilt doors — of which there are some 650,000 in Australia — can now be modernised so that everyone can enjoy the convenience of automation without purchasing a new door,” he said.
The Commander Elite is backed by a full seven-year warranty and comprehensive after-sales support for peace of mind. It complies with Australian and New Zealand Standards AS/NZS 60335-2-95 and includes a range of features designed to make your life easier.
“We noticed that there was no solution designed specifically for tilt doors. These doors require an opener with more control over speed and power, so we developed the innovative Commander Elite, which is the perfect power partner for tilt doors,” said Grant.
“We are very excited about this product, and we stand behind it with an after-sales support team that we believe to be the best in the industry.”
And to top it off, the Commander Elite MS105MYQ is compatible with a wide range of Merlin accessories — giving you even more flexibility, convenience, and control over your garage door system.
