What garage door features and accessories are available?

C & M Garage Doors are all about making your life easier and more convenient. With an extensive range of garage accessories, specifically designed to enhance your current set-up, and as the exclusive supplier of B&D doors, C&M are here to help pimp your garage, with some of our favourite accessories. If one takes your fancy, or you’d like more information about any of them, give us a call today, or we can come to you with our mobile showroom.

Insulation: With the extreme weather conditions we have in Australia year-round, insulating your garage can actually affect the temperature of your house, keeping it up to 20 degrees cooler in the summer and 10 degrees warmer in winter.  With ever-increasing electricity prices, insulating your garage is a cost-effective way, to not only reduce energy consumption, but also reduce outside noise.

Control-a-door smart: This enables complete security with a ‘Safe Lock’ anti-tamper system, meaning if an intruder attempts to break in, the garage will lock itself. The B&D app also gives you real time updates, plus you can open or shut the garage at anytime, anywhere. The app features voice control and customisation to add or remove users, so no-one else can tamper with it, leaving you with peace of mind and heightened security.

Other than the control-a-door smart having a high degree of anti-theft, it also has in-built safety features, such as an automatic reverse sensor that detects when something is obstructing the garage door, for example, a child or pet. If something is detected, it will then reverse and open, avoiding the obstruction. For an additional sleek and modern finish, you could also pair your smart garage door opener with a sectional pane lift garage.

Control-a-door secure: Like the control-a-door smart, this garage feature locks the garage if an intruder is detected, illuminating it to alert others and acting as a deterrent to potential break-ins. If you install a control-a-door secure, you’ll also be given two B&D Tri-Tran+ remotes. This cutting-edge technology enables only your approved remote to open your garage door, therefore preventing anyone else accessing your home. It also prevents encryption and potential hacking, as it transmits through three different frequencies.

Remotes: Have you recently lost or broken your garage remote? Has one of the kids dropped it in the toilet, or thrown it out of a moving car? However it happened, we can assist. Able to either replace, or assist you in choosing the ideal remote for your garage door needs, C&M are here to help .

C&M Garage Doors is committed to simplifying your life and keeping your garage secure, by offering garage door accessories designed for convenience and security. Contact us today to explore the possibilities of improving your garage experience.

What is the Difference between Sectional and Roller Doors?

Have you ever wondered about the difference between sectional and roller doors? Well, wonder no more! Here at C&M Garage Doors, we’re here to break it down for you.

First off, let’s talk about sectional doors. These doors are made up of several sections or panels that are hinged together. They open vertically and then slide back into the garage ceiling, allowing for more space in the driveway. They come in various styles and materials, from steel to timber to aluminium, and can be customized to fit your specific needs and aesthetic preferences.

On the other hand, roller doors are made up of a single sheet of steel that rolls up into a barrel located above the door. They’re also available in a range of colours and finishes and are often chosen for their space-saving design and easy operation.

So, which one is better? It all depends on your individual needs and preferences. Here are a few things to consider:

  • Space: If you’re tight on space in your driveway or garage, a roller door might be your best option. It doesn’t require as much overhead room as a sectional door.
  • Security: Both sectional and roller doors are secure options for your garage, but sectional doors tend to be more robust and offer more protection against break-ins.
  • Maintenance: Both doors can require some maintenance after a while, but roller doors tend to be simpler to maintain since they have fewer moving parts. Regular lubrication and cleaning will help keep your door in good working order.

At C&M Garage Doors, we offer both types of doors, as well as a wide range of other garage door solutions. We’re proud to be a leading supplier of B&D roller garage doors in Ballina and the surrounding areas. We offer a mobile showroom that comes right to your door, so you can see our products in person and get a better sense of what will work best for your home.

We also offer a free garage door measure and quote service, so you can get an accurate idea of your project’s cost before you commit. Our team of experts can handle every aspect of your roller door installation from start to finish, so you don’t have to worry about a thing.

Of course, once your roller door is installed, it’s essential to keep up with regular maintenance to ensure it stays in good condition. Our team offers B&D roller door maintenance services to keep your door functioning correctly and to catch any potential issues before they become significant problems.

So, whether you’re in the market for a sectional door or a roller door, C&M Garage Doors has you covered. We’re here to help you choose the best option for your needs and budget and to provide you with top-notch installation and maintenance services.

We take pride in our work and in our reputation as a trusted provider of garage door solutions in Ballina and surrounding areas. Contact us today to schedule your free measure and quote and to learn more about how we can help you with all your garage door needs.

Why You Should Consider a Smart Roller Door: A Guide to Custom Roller Doors

Roller doors have been a popular choice for homeowners for many years. They provide easy access to the garage, while also offering protection and security for your vehicles and belongings. However, with advances in technology, roller doors are becoming smarter and more convenient than ever before. In this article, we’ll explore why you should consider a smart roller door, and how custom roller doors can enhance your home.

What is a Smart Roller Door?

A roller door is a type of garage door that opens vertically and rolls up around a drum. A smart roller door is a roller door that is equipped with advanced technology, such as remote operation, sensors, and automatic opening and closing features. These features allow for greater convenience, security, and safety for homeowners.

Do I Need a Smart Roller Door?

There are several reasons why you should consider investing in a smart roller door for your home. One of the main benefits is convenience. With a smart roller door, you can open and close the door remotely using a smartphone app, eliminating the need for physical keys or remotes. This feature is especially useful when you need to let someone in or out of the garage, but you’re not at home.

Another benefit of smart roller doors is security. With the ability to monitor your garage door remotely, you can ensure that your garage is always secure. Some smart roller doors come with built-in sensors that can detect when someone is trying to enter your garage without your permission and send you an alert. This feature can give you peace of mind when you’re away from home.

Smart roller doors also offer safety benefits. For example, some models come with built-in sensors that can detect if there is an obstruction in the door’s path, preventing the door from closing and potentially causing damage or injury. Additionally, some smart roller doors can automatically close after a set period, reducing the risk of leaving your garage door open.

One of our favourite applications is when the garage door is clad in the same material as the building’s exterior wall. As the door starts to close, it disappears before your eyes. Its unique design and flush façade is hard to beat when it comes to curb-side appeal. If you’re going to make a statement, the Flush Mount system is the way to go.

Custom Roller Doors

At C&M Garage Doors, we offer custom roller doors that can be tailored to your specific needs and preferences. Our custom roller doors are made from high-quality materials, and can be designed to match your home’s style and color scheme. We offer a wide range of options, including different sizes, colours, and finishes, as well as additional features such as insulation and security upgrades.

A smart roller door can offer many benefits for homeowners, including convenience, security, and safety. If you’re considering investing in a roller door, a smart roller door is definitely worth considering. Additionally, custom roller doors can be tailored to your specific needs and preferences, ensuring that your garage door perfectly complements your home’s style and functionality. Contact us at C&M Garage Doors to learn more about our custom roller door options.

Joints, screws, rivets, and fixings are also concealed within the design profile, meaning you can achieve a sleek, modern and sophisticated look. Now, who wouldn’t want that? Knotwood also comes in a wide range of powder coating colours; whether you want to achieve that light coastal oak look or a dark modern ashy style, we basically have it all!

Have you ever left the house in a rush to work and thought, “oh no, did I shut the garage door?”… this year it may be time to invest in a smart garage door! Having a smart roller door means that at the touch of your fingertips, you can securely open and close your garage door anytime and anywhere. Using the app, you can access the camera view of your garage and receive real-time notifications on your smartphone when the door has been left open or obstructed, thus creating greater security and less stress for you and your family. The B&D Garage Door app also allows you to authorise specific users to operate the garage door and remove any you don’t!

The different types of doors

When considering installing commercial roller doors, there are essentially three main types of doors to consider.

Sectional Doors

Our most popular choice are the B&D P7 industrial sectional doors. Each sectional overhead panel door is constructed with a lightweight but sturdy aluminium frame with over 10 different options for panel inserts depending on your specific aesthetic and needs. Panel inserts range from clear or coloured acrylic, corrugated steel, air panel or aluminium slats.

With heights ranging from 1370mm – 4500mm, widths from 1800mm – 7620mm and full automation options, sectional doors are a great option for carparks, kiosks, shopping centres and shopfronts.

Roller Doors

Industrial roller doors are a safe and economical option for your business, with a range of options to suite your varying needs. The G&D Roll-A-Door S1 Mini Warehouse line is most suited to storage centres, kiosks, mini warehouses and shop fronts. Doors range from 1250mm – 3000mm high and 940mm – 31500mm wide, all options are high wind rated, offer smooth and quiet operation and are fitted with precision springing and bottom weatherseal to keep out unwanted debris. B&D commercial roller doors in the Roll-A-Door Series 2 and The Roll-A-Door Series 3 Squareline ranges are ideal choices for larger spaces like warehouses, factories and sheds that require durable, strong and secure doors. We recommend the B&D Flex-A-Door range for client’s looking to replace an existing tilt door, have restricted headroom or have an unusual shaped entrance like archways. All range offer sleek profiles and have multiple customizable features including a vast colour range.

Shutter Doors

The last option for clients seeking commercial doors are shutters. With slotted, perforated and slat styles available, shutters can suit all matter of smaller spaces from arcades, shopfronts, trucks & vans, fire reel covers and bars to large spaces such as sporting complexes, secure parking structures and factories. This style of industrial garage door can be one of the most cost-effective options as individual slats or panels can be replaced in the case of damage. Made from a combination of aluminium and galvanized steel, the doors are built to last and offer high quality security to your business.

Security Considerations for your industrial garage door

In addition to your existing security systems, we recommend installing the B&D Controll-A-Door Secure system.  This is an automatic fast-opening system that will illuminate a large space below with an LED light allowing you enough light to find additional switches or locks.

Signature custom frame installed with the help of Hurf Build Design and Construct

We love when our customers come to us with ideas that are out of the ordinary and present us with unique challenges. This client opted for an aged wood cladding and wanted a door that would provide modern functionality and security but could also provide that aged, lived in look to suit the exterior of their home.

B&D Sectional Garage Door – Nullarbor Panelift Door in Ironstone

A B&D sectional garage door was chosen by these Lennox Head clients in the Colorbond shade Ironstone. They opted for Nullarbor Woodgrain Textured Panelift door, adding a natural texture to offset the iron cladding on their home.

We installed Panelift and Panelift Icons (a premium model of this popular door) all around the Northern Rivers; from Ballina to Kingscliff, Lismore and Grafton and everywhere in between.

Recent Garage Door Installations in Goonellabah

Did you know that C&M Garage Doors install garage doors as far north as Kingscliff and as far south as Grafton? As the north coast’s only B&D Accredited Dealer, we proudly provide our products and services to most of Northern New South Wales, including Goonellabah. In fact, we’ve been installing garage doors in Goonellabah and its surrounding suburbs for almost two decades.

Based in Ballina

Way back in 1994, C&M Garage Doors established in Alstonville. In 2015, we made the move to the Ballina Industrial Estate which gave us enough space for a state-of-the-art showroom and dedicated service centre and depot. The move became a spring board into a whole new level of trading and ever since, we’ve only grown and expanded the business. Ballina has been a great move, and has put us right int the middle of the Northern Rivers, making a great base to work from.

We welcome everyone to visit the showroom to check out models of garage doors and talk to an expert design consultant in person. We’re only a 15-minute drive East from Goonellabah, located in the Ballina Industrial Estate at 7 Stinson Street.

Garage Doors in Goonellabah

If you live in Goonellabah and have a home that is in need of a new garage door, or perhaps an upgrade, C&M Garage Doors should be your first port of call. Goonellabah and its surrounding suburbs are one of our largest groups of customers, especially with the influx of people moving to the area. Quite a number of our most recent installations have been in Goonellabah, an up-and-coming suburb of the Lismore LGA which is rapidly growing in popularity.

B&D Panelift Garage Door

C&M are the only B&D Garage Door Accredited Dealer on the north coast, and the most popular model is the Panelift. The Panelift garage door is a sectional door, and can be customised with a range of different colours and profile designs. In Goonellabah, we install more Panelift garage doors than any other door.

In this recent installation in Goonellabah, our client chose design features to complement and enhance their traditional-style home. The colour of the door is Night Sky and it matches nicely with the roof tiles. We have found Night Sky to be quite a popular colour choice with many of our Goonellabah clients due to the traditional style of most homes in the area. Being dark, this colour has longevity and requires less cleaning to keep it looking presentable. The profile design on this garage door in Goonellabah is called Grange – that’s the rectangular pattern you see on the door. This door is textured too, and that’s thanks to the Wood grain texture of the Grange profile.  

B&D Grange Panelift door in Night Sky, installed in Goonellabah

Another popular design combination we see a lot at the moment is the B&D Nullabor Panelift. It’s a contemporary and sleek door with clean panels giving the home a modern aesthetic. In the below recent installation in Goonellabah, the client chose to pair the Nullabor profile design with the colour Monument. The end result is stunning, and contrasts well with the colour of the house, the pebble driveway and soft greens of surrounding plants.

B&D Roll-A-Door Garage Door

The B&D Panelift is a sectional door. This means as the panels lift and open, they are stored along the top of the ceiling of the garage. Roller doors are different, and many of our clients choose them because they give you more storage space. Instead of taking up a real-estate along the ceiling of your garage, roller doors roll up (as the name suggests) onto themselves.

We’ve found that B&D’s Roll-A-Door model is also a popular choice of garage door with Goonellabah clients. Roller doors are usually less expensive than sectional doors, but often aren’t as aesthetically pleasing. The Neo Roll-A-Door was developed to bridge this gap. It’s a roller garage door that does not comprise space in your garage, and its profile design is very similar to many sectional garage doors on the market.

For example, see the recent Goonellabah installation of a Neo Roll-A-Door below. Our client chose the colour Macadamia Nutwood. The end result is a garage door with the convenience of a roller door, and the aesthetic of a sectional door.

B&D To You

We’ve recently expanded our business services to include a mobile showroom. We can visit you in the B&D To You van which has all the product samples you’d ever need to make a decision for your new garage door. It makes choosing the right garage door a simpler and more convenient process. We know visiting the showroom in Ballina isn’t always possible for our clients in Goonellabah and its surrounding suburbs, and if that’s the case for you, book an at-home consultation.

Our mobile showroom has also allowed us to extend our service area up into the Tweed, including Kingscliff, Cabarita, Casuarina and Pottsville.

Fell free to call us if you would like to discuss your options with one of our friendly staff.

Top 5 trends for Garage Doors in 2021

Whether it’s time for a new garage door, you’re wanting an upgrade or looking to add value with street appeal, there is a very wide range of options to choose from. From roller garage doors to sectional garage doors, to endless colour choices and design profiles, making the right choice can sometimes feel overwhelming. Not to worry, because we have seen a number of garage door trends evolve throughout the year, making your decision a little easier to make.

Auto-lock Security

More and more, customers are choosing Auto-Lock security for their garage door. Nothing says ‘modern’ more than the most up-to-date security technology. As the largest, external-facing door in your home, a garage door plays an important role in protecting your family and valuables. The Auto-Lock system sends a heavy-duty bolt through the guard rail each time it closes without the need for a key, giving you peace of mind. It’s no wonder we’ve seen this accessory increase in popularity.

Panelift is popular

The B&D Panelift garage doors are Australia’s most popular, and for good reason. They are reliable, durable and safe with traditional elegance and an extensive choice of colour and profile designs. We’ve always thought of this garage door as the ‘go-to model’ and our customers prove it; recently, the Panelift garage door model has been more popular than ever.

With all the elegance of natural wood, Prodema Prodex is a unique natural timber product for façade cladding. It’s highly resistant to nature’s elements, making it an ideal option for your garage door.

Natural Finishes

Natural aesthetic has always been a design trend and popular choice for garage doors, and it’s not going away. It’s timeless, complements natural surroundings and offers a sleek and sophisticated look to any home. Along the coast of Northern NSW, the most popular timber coat is in the colour ‘Merbau’, often added onto Seville Panelifts and Neo Roll-A-Doors.

“Hidden” Garage Doors

Subtlety is key these days, and we are seeing a growing number of modern builds integrate garage doors into the façade of buildings. Essentially, these garage doors are “hidden”, complementing modern architectural and design choices for homes. It’s a minimalistic approach and its always an exciting project for us to work on.

When you’re making decisions about your garage door, make sure you’re considering its 20 to 30 year lifespan and how your life might change between now and then. Choose models, colour, profile designs and materials with this in mind.
