Openers for Sectional Garage Doors

Yes, most sectional garage doors can be automated using a Merlin automatic opener designed for roller doors. However, there are some exceptions. If your door is significantly damaged or warped, it may need to be repaired or replaced to ensure smooth and reliable operation with the new opener.

We can connect you with a local Merlin dealer who can assess your current door and assist with automation, servicing, or replacement if needed.

The cost to convert your existing sectional garage door to automatic operation depends on the Merlin opener model you choose. RRPs start from as low as $930.00 including installation. Your local Merlin dealer can help you select the right opener for your door and provide a detailed quote based on your specific needs. The final pricing will be confirmed by your local dealer and may vary depending on site-specific factors.

Merlin products are protected by our SECURITY+ 2.0® & Rolling Code Technology. This is the highest level of security encryption available in the market. Merlin Garage Door Openers with SECURITY+ 2.0® send a unique, encrypted code with every remote click.

Merlin remotes use Rolling code technology, which means every time the remote is clicked a unique code is sent to your garage door opener, so the same code is never used twice. This offers the highest level of encryption which prevents "replay attacks", where someone could capture and re-use a code to open the garage door. A simple clone would only copy the current code, which would be instantly outdated.

We encourage Australians and New Zealanders with garage and gates to ensure they have secure, safe, and high-quality garage door and gate openers installed and to use only genuine accessories. This ensures the safety and security of their homes, belongings, and loved ones. 

If you have questions or concerns about the safety of your access, we recommend contacting our customer service team.
