Default Crazy electric gates

Was leaving a friends apartment last week and as i was driving through the automated gates they closed on my car. There's a dent and a 40 X 20cm scratch along my left passenger door. I've contacted the body corporate of the property and they've told me that they'll take care of it and to give my insurer their details.

Should i to go through my insurer? Or would it be easier just to take it to a panel shop and give them the quote?

Also can anyone recommend any panel shops in Melbourne? And will they have to spray more then the door to paint match everything?

Only had the car for a month, and really upset about the thought of having to bog up a dent on a new car. Then there's also the risk of the panels not matching after the spray :(
