About Gibbons
Gibbons is a town of about 3,200 people, roughly 37 km northeast of Edmonton on Highway 28A, on the south bank of the Sturgeon River. It became a village in 1959 and a town in 1977, and its motto is “Rooted in Family.” The town is part of Sturgeon County. If you live on an acreage outside town, see our Sturgeon County page. Nearby Bon Accord has its own page too.
A Family Town Is Hard on a Garage Door
Gibbons has an arena, a curling club and local schools, and a lot of family life runs through the garage. School runs, hockey and curling bags and groceries all mean the door opens and closes many times a day.
That matters because a spring is rated for a set number of cycles. One cycle is one open and one close. A standard spring is good for about 10,000 cycles. A busy household can run 10 to 15 cycles a day, which puts a standard spring at roughly two to three years at that pace. A door used a few times a day can last seven to ten years.
If you are replacing a spring on a door the whole family uses, ask us about a higher-cycle spring. It costs more now and gives you more years. See spring replacement.
What We Fix Most Often in Gibbons
Most calls fall into a few groups:
- A door that will not lift. Usually a broken spring. Stop using it and call us. See spring replacement.
- A door that closes crooked or a cable hanging loose. See cable replacement.
- A door that reverses or will not close. Often a dirty or misaligned sensor. See sensor repair.
- A noisy or shaky door. Worn rollers and hinges. See roller replacement.
- A slow or silent opener. See opener repair and installation.
- A door that came off the track. See track repair.
- A garage that stays cold. See insulated garage doors.
Our general garage door repair service covers the rest.
Why a Stuck Door in Gibbons Can’t Wait for Tomorrow
Gibbons is not a short drive from the city, and many people commute to work in Edmonton or the Industrial Heartland. A door stuck shut with the car inside means a missed shift or a missed school run. That is why we answer around the clock.
If your door will not open, see if the problem is the opener or the door. Pull the red release cord with the door fully closed. If the door lifts by hand and stays up, the opener is the likely problem. If the door is heavy, drops or has a gap in the spring or a loose cable, stop and call us. See our emergency garage door repair page.
Getting to Gibbons
Gibbons is northeast of Edmonton, and our shop is on Chappelle Rd. SW, so we cross the city and then drive out Highway 28A. Travel time depends on the time of day, traffic and the weather. We do not promise a time we cannot keep. When you call, we give you an arrival window for your address. Doors that are stuck open, off the track or hanging on a loose cable come first.
If the repair is not urgent, book early in the day. See our same-day garage door repair page for how same-day booking works.
A Fall Habit for Gibbons Garages
Winters here are long, and a few minutes in October can prevent a January call:
- Run the door by hand once. Release it with the door closed, lift it halfway and let go. A balanced door stays put.
- Look at the bottom seal. A cracked seal lets in snow and freezes to the floor.
- Wipe the sensor lenses before the first frost.
- Clear the base of the door after each storm.
- Book a tune-up if anything sounds new. See our garage door maintenance service.

Shops, small businesses and yards in and around Gibbons also have overhead doors that run all day. We repair springs, cables and operators, and we quote commercial work after we assess the door. See our commercial overhead door service.
