After a storm in January 2025, parts of Nelson Bay were still without power on 17 January, and Ausgrid said Port Stephens was particularly badly hit. Ring us to be referred to a local garage door business.

When power stays off for days, as it did in parts of Nelson Bay in January 2025, a car can stay stuck behind an electric door. If the door stays dead after the power returns, the opener may have a fault, so tell us exactly what happens when you press the button or the remote. Keep clear of the door while it’s stuck. Our motor repairs page covers openers and remotes.
About four in ten Nelson Bay homes weren’t separate houses in 2021 (59.1% were). If your garage door is shared by a unit block or townhouse complex, talk to the strata manager first, since it may be common property. Otherwise, let us know the door type, the problem and whether there’s a car you need to get out. A local garage door business can then contact you, with your consent.
