A garage door that fails in a Calgary winter is more than an inconvenience. The door may be frozen shut, the house may be open to the street, and you may need to leave for work in minus 25. The best time to deal with a weak door is before the cold arrives, and the second best time is today. If your door is slow, noisy or uneven, book an inspection and we will tell you what needs attention and what can wait.
Our residential garage door repair and maintenance service covers everything a home garage door needs.
Frozen to the ground. Melting snow runs under the door and freezes the bottom seal to the concrete. If the opener pulls against it, the seal tears or a panel bends. Follow our steps in how to free a garage door frozen to the concrete.
Stiff parts and slow doors. Cold thickens lubricant and hardens rubber. Moving parts that felt fine in September begin to strain. Our post on how extreme cold affects your garage door in Alberta shows what to look for.
Springs fail more often in the cold. Metal is less forgiving at low temperatures, and the first hard freeze often brings a wave of broken springs. If your springs are original and more than seven or eight years old, replacing them before winter is cheaper than an emergency call in January. See spring replacement costs in Calgary.
Weak seals let the cold in. A worn bottom seal or cracked side weatherstripping leaves gaps that let in snow, drafts and mice. Replacing them is quick and inexpensive.
Remote batteries die faster. Cold shortens battery life. If your remote works only up close, try a new battery before you call us. If it still does not work, we can reprogram or replace it.
Use these guides to get your door ready, or book a tune-up and we will do it for you:
A tune-up costs $149 plus GST. We check and adjust springs, cables, rollers, hinges, tracks, seals and the opener, and we lubricate the parts that need it.
Your garage door is often the easiest way into your home, so it needs to work properly and stay secure.
If the power goes out and the door is closed, here is how to open a garage door manually. Use it only when you know the springs and cables are in good condition.
More signs are in 10 warning signs your garage door needs immediate attention. Do not try to repair springs or cables yourself. They hold a large amount of stored force.
Our starting prices are listed below. All prices are plus 5% GST, with no weekend surcharge.

A new insulated door can make the garage warmer, quieter and more efficient, especially if it is attached to your house.

Why is my garage door stuck in winter?
The bottom seal is often frozen to the concrete, or the cold has stiffened the parts so much that the opener cannot move the door. Clear ice from the base and do not force the opener. If the door still will not move, a spring or cable may have failed.
How often should I service my garage door in Calgary?
Once a year is a good rule, ideally in the fall before the cold arrives. A tune-up costs $149 plus GST and can catch worn parts before they fail.
Can you reprogram my garage door remote or keypad?
Yes. We program and replace remotes and keypads for most common openers. If the opener itself is faulty or very old, we will let you know whether a repair or a new unit makes more sense.
What does garage door repair cost in Deer Ridge?
Most repairs start at $199 plus 5% GST. Spring replacement starts at $349 and opener repair at $249. You get a written quote before we begin.
Do you offer emergency service in Deer Ridge?
Yes. We offer 24/7 emergency service across Calgary and can usually arrive the same day or within 24 hours. Call 587 223 5757.
Should I replace my springs before they break?
If they are original and more than seven or eight years old, it is a smart move. Replacing them on your schedule costs less than an emergency visit and avoids being locked out of your own garage in winter.
