Why it matters

When the front door stops, the phone starts.

A door that won't open, a gate that won't close or a shutter stuck half way rarely stays a door problem for long. Tenants can't get in, deliveries can't get through and the site can't be secured at night. Then someone is standing in reception asking when it will be fixed.

Most of those failures give warning signs first: a sensor starting to drift, a worn roller, a motor running hot. Caught at a planned service, they cost a part. Missed, they cost a morning.

The free condition check

Know what state your doors are in before they tell you.

A condition check is a walk-through with you, not a sales pitch. It gives you a clear picture of every door and gate on site, what needs attention and what it would cost to keep them running.

  1. We walk the site with you

    A Talbot technician looks at each automatic door, gate and shutter, runs it through its cycle and checks the safety sensors.

  2. Every asset gets a rating

    Each one is rated on the same 1 to 5 condition scale we use in our service reports, so you can see at a glance where the risk is.

  3. You get it in writing

    A short written summary with any urgent issues, recommended work in priority order and a price for a maintenance program that suits the site.

Planned maintenance

Find the fault before it finds you.

A Talbot maintenance program is built around each site. We look at every door and gate, how hard it works and what it protects, then set a service schedule to match. A shopping centre entrance with thousands of cycles a day is serviced more often than a back-of-house door.

At every visit the technician checks, adjusts and tests:

  • Sensors, photo-eyes and safety edges, tested for correct detection
  • Speed and closing force, set to AS 5007 and manufacturer limits
  • Motors, drives, chains, belts, rollers and tracks, checked for wear
  • Locking, manual release, break-out and fire trip functions
  • Controls, limits, wiring and battery backup

Worn parts are flagged before they fail, with a clear recommendation and price. You decide what gets done and when.

Breakdowns and repairs

95.5%

of jobs fixed on the first visit.

Based on FY2025–26 job data.

Fixed the first time.

A second visit means another day of the door out, another day of complaints and another invoice. So we set our technicians up to finish the job the first time.

Our vans carry the door, gate and shutter parts that fail most often, across the brands we service. Our technicians are trained on all major systems, so they aren't waiting on a manufacturer to diagnose a fault. If a door can't be fixed on the spot, we make it safe and secure before we leave, and you'll know exactly what happens next.

Reporting and compliance

Every visit, on record.

When an auditor, insurer or tenant asks how the doors are maintained, you should be able to answer in one email. After every Talbot visit you get a written report on each door and gate we attended: what we checked, what we found, what we fixed, and what we recommend next with a priority and a price.

Over time those reports become a service history for every asset on site. That is your evidence of maintenance for AS 5007, AS 1428.1 and your duty of care, and it lets repairs and replacements be budgeted instead of paid for as surprises.

  • A pass or fail for every door against 30 checklist items covering AS 5007, AS 1428 and the NCC
  • A condition rating from 1 to 5 for every asset
  • Next steps with a priority and price for any work needed

How we work

Local people. One standard.

Many Talbot service areas are run by local owner-operators. The person looking after your site owns the business behind it and wants your work for the long term. You deal with the same faces, and they know your doors, your access arrangements and your site history.

Behind every local team is the Talbot head office. It sets one standard for training, safety, reporting and service, so every site gets the same result wherever it is.

Our own teams cover NSW, Queensland and Victoria. Sites in other states are looked after through our contractor network, on the same reporting standard.

The long-term relationship is a huge advantage as both Lee and Nikki have gained a strong understanding of the complicated issues that arise in running our large multi-dwelling buildings throughout Sydney… I would certainly recommend Talbot Auto Doors to anyone looking for an exceptional and professional service.

Andrew SeifDirector, Nationwide Building Management

The team consistently provides outstanding service, quality workmanship, and professional advice. What really sets them apart is their honesty and commitment to finding the best solution for your existing door rather than pushing unnecessary replacements or expensive options.

Questions

What facilities managers ask us.

What does the free condition check involve?

A technician walks the site with you or your site contact, operates each automatic door, gate and shutter, checks the safety sensors and looks for wear. Each asset gets a 1 to 5 condition rating. You then receive a written summary with urgent issues, recommended work and a price for a maintenance program. It is a visual and functional check, not a full service, and there is no charge.

Do you service doors you didn't install?

Yes. We service and repair all major brands of automatic door, gate and shutter, and our vans carry parts across those brands. Most of the sites we look after were installed by someone else.

How often should automatic doors be serviced?

It depends on the door type and how hard it works. As a guide, many sliding doors are serviced every six months and swing doors three times a year, with busy entrances serviced more often. We set the schedule site by site after the condition check.

What does a maintenance program cost?

Use the price calculator at the top of this page. Tell us what's on site and you'll see a fixed price per service visit straight away. Parts and any repairs found at a visit are quoted separately, and service contract customers get 10% off breakdown call-outs.

Can you take over from our current contractor?

Yes. If you have previous service reports or an asset list, send them through and we will use them to build the program. If not, the condition check gives us the starting point.

Can you work to our systems and compliance requirements?

Yes. We are Cm3 prequalified, fully insured, and work with facilities management companies that have their own portals, work order processes and reporting formats.

What if a door fails outside business hours?

Call 1300 560 608. The breakdown line is open 24/7. If a door can't be repaired on the spot, the technician makes it safe and secure before leaving.
