Where Thom Works

Which Sunshine Coast suburbs does Deadlock cover?

Thom covers the Sunshine Coast from Golden Beach and Caloundra in the south to Mount Coolum and Point Arkwright in the north, and inland through Buderim and Sippy Downs toward Nambour and Yandina. Noosa Shire, from Peregian Beach and Sunshine Beach up to Noosa Heads and Tewantin, isn't covered.

Coastal suburbs: salt air and sand

From Maroochydore and Mooloolaba up to Marcoola, Mount Coolum and Point Arkwright, many homes sit close to the beach or the Maroochy River. Salt air settles on springs, cables and fixings, and sand works into door tracks. Beachfront doors wear faster, so they're worth keeping on a yearly service.

Kawana: canals, beaches and new estates

Minyama and Parrearra back onto canals, and Buddina, Warana and Wurtulla sit along the Kawana beachfront, so salt is part of daily life there. Birtinya is one of the Coast's newest suburbs, and most garages there have modern sectional doors and openers.

Caloundra: headlands and growth estates

Shelly Beach, Moffat Beach, Dicky Beach and Kings Beach face the ocean, so wind and salt reach door hardware most days. Behind them, Baringa, Bells Creek and Caloundra West are newer estates, where many doors are coming up to their first service. At Golden Beach, garages often hold boats and trailers too.

Hinterland: slopes, humidity and dust

Buderim's hillside blocks mean sloped driveways and bigger double doors, where spring balance matters. On the damper western side of Nambour, humidity and leaf litter get into the tracks. Out on the Ninderry acreage, dust from gravel driveways wears rollers and bearings. Sippy Downs and Mountain Creek are mostly estate homes with sectional doors.

Wherever you are, a service is the same five checks and repairs are booked the same way. Repairs and servicing are booked as a callout valued between $200 and $300, depending on the door size and the labour involved.

What Deadlock Does Across the Coast

Garage door services across the Sunshine Coast

Service and Maintenance

A five-point service: springs, rollers and tracks, hardware, cables and drums, and the opener's safety reverse.

Local note

Once a year suits most homes, or every six to nine months if the door runs many times a day. Near the beach, keep to that schedule, because salt wears moving parts faster.

Garage Door Repairs

Broken springs, snapped cables, off-track doors, worn rollers and openers that won't respond.

Local note

Repairs and servicing are booked as a callout valued between $200 and $300, depending on the door size and the labour involved.

Read more

Spring Repairs

Torsion and extension spring replacement. Tell Thom the door type when you ring, so he brings the right spring.

Local note

On a two-spring door it's usually worth replacing both, because they wear at the same rate. Leave spring work to a technician: the springs are under high tension all the time.

Read more

Motor and Opener Replacement

Openers that hum or won't respond, repaired or replaced to suit your door.

Local note

Say what the opener is doing when you call, and read the make off the motor housing if you can.

Read more

24/7 Emergency Repairs

A door stuck open overnight, a snapped spring, a door off its track or a car shut inside.

Local note

Emergency callouts are taken 24/7. While you wait, stop pressing the remote, because that can cause more damage.

Garage Door Installation

How installing or replacing a garage door works, and what to check before the job starts.

Local note

In Queensland, building work valued over $3,300 needs a QBCC licence. Check the installer's licence on the QBCC register before you sign.

Doors and Products

Roller, sectional and tilt doors, and how they compare.

Local note

Each door type needs different room around the opening, so measure before you choose.

Questions From The Sunshine Coast

Asked before booking

37 suburbs in four areas. The coastal strip runs from Maroochydore and Mooloolaba up to Point Arkwright. Kawana covers the beaches and canals down to Currimundi. Caloundra runs from Kings Beach out to Baringa and Bells Creek. The hinterland takes in Buderim, Sippy Downs and the suburbs toward Nambour and Yandina. Each suburb has its own page.

No. Noosa Shire, which takes in Peregian Beach, Sunshine Beach, Noosa Heads and Tewantin, sits outside the service area. The northern edge is around Mount Coolum and Point Arkwright. To the south, the area stops at Caloundra and Golden Beach. Inside those edges, each covered suburb has its own page with local detail.

Salt settles on the door and its fixings every day, and it turns to rust on the springs and cables. Rusty cables fray, and a rusty spring is more likely to break. Wash the door down with fresh water now and then and keep to a yearly service. Many door warranties ask for regular washing in coastal areas, so check yours.

Repairs and servicing are booked as a callout valued between $200 and $300, depending on the door size and the labour involved. Tell Thom your suburb, the door type and size, and what the door is doing when you call. A service covers the same five checks wherever you are, and a repair is booked the same way.

Five checks: spring tension and balance, roller and track lubrication, hardware tightening, cable and drum inspection, and a test of the opener and its safety reverse. Thom finishes by running the door by hand and under power. Most homes need a service once a year, or every six to nine months if the door runs many times a day.

A door jammed open overnight, a snapped spring that won't let the door lift, a door hanging off its track, or a car shut inside when you need to leave. Thom takes emergency callouts 24/7 across the Sunshine Coast. While you wait, stop pressing the remote, because that can cause more damage, and keep everyone clear of the door.

Yes. Caloundra and the suburbs around it are covered, from Kings Beach, Moffat Beach and Shelly Beach to the newer estates at Baringa, Bells Creek and Caloundra West. There's a Caloundra page that brings the area together, and each of those suburbs has its own page too. Booked work runs 6am to 6pm, seven days.

Yes, two simple checks. With the door closed, pull the release cord, lift the door halfway and carefully let go. If it drops or rises on its own, the springs need attention. Then lay a roll of paper towel under the door and close it with the remote. If it doesn't reverse on contact, stop using the opener. Leave the springs alone.
