What Goes Wrong With Garage Doors in Secord and Granville
Secord and Granville are newer neighbourhoods in far west Edmonton. The Secord plan was adopted by City Council in 2007, and development began soon after and is still going. Granville grew quickly later: its census population went from 222 in 2012 to 2,772 in 2019. So most doors here are between about 5 and 18 years old. Doors this age rarely fail all at once, but the first parts do wear out:
- Springs reaching their cycle rating. See spring replacement.
- Cables, drums and rollers that start to show wear. See cable replacement and roller replacement.
- Safety sensors that are knocked out of line. See sensor repair.
- Openers with remotes, keypads or boards that act up. See opener repair and installation.
- Bottom seals that crack or go flat. See general garage door repair service.
Our garage door maintenance service covers regular checks.
Is the Repair Still Covered by a Warranty?
On a newer home, check before you call. A garage door may be covered by one or more of these:
- The builder’s warranty. Ask your builder or check your home warranty paperwork.
- The door manufacturer’s warranty. Look for a label on the door or the paperwork from the install.
- The opener manufacturer’s warranty. The model number is on the motor unit.
Warranties often cover certain parts for a set time and may not cover wear and tear. Read yours for what it covers and for any rule about who must do the repair. If a warranty applies, use it. If it does not, or if the door will not close and you need it fixed now, we can repair it and give you a written price first. We do not assume what your warranty covers.
What Usually Wears at Each Age
This is a general guide, not a promise. How often you use the door matters most. A standard spring is rated for about 10,000 cycles, which is about 9 years at three cycles a day and 7 years at four.
| Door age | What often needs attention |
|---|---|
| 5 to 8 years | Safety sensor alignment, bottom seal, remote and keypad batteries, lubrication |
| 8 to 12 years | Springs, rollers, hinges |
| 12 to 18 years | Cables, tracks, opener motor or circuit board |
If your door is in the first group, a checkup and lubrication can often delay bigger repairs. If it is in the second, a noisy or heavy door is a good reason to have the springs looked at. See spring replacement.
Cold Garages in Secord and Granville
A garage that is cold in winter is harder on a door. Grease stiffens, batteries drain faster and seals can freeze to the floor. This is true of any garage, but more so if it is not attached to a heated house. A few simple habits help:
- Lubricate the moving parts once or twice a year.
- Replace remote and keypad batteries before winter.
- Clear snow and ice from the bottom of the door before you open it.
- Replace a cracked bottom seal so it does not freeze to the floor.
If a door will not move in the cold, do not force it. Call us. See emergency garage door repair.

Garage Door Repair in Secord & Granville FAQs
How much does garage door repair cost in Secord & Granville?
A service call and diagnosis typically costs $90 to $130 plus GST. A spring pair typically costs $280 to $450, a cable pair $180 to $320 and a roller set $150 to $260. We confirm the exact price in writing before we start.
Do you charge extra to come to Secord & Granville?
We tell you the full price, including any travel or after-hours charge, before we start, and you approve it first. Call us with your address and we will confirm the price for your visit.
Is my garage door repair covered by a warranty?
It might be. Check your builder’s warranty, the door manufacturer’s warranty and the opener manufacturer’s warranty. Warranties often cover only certain parts for a set time. If a warranty applies, use it. If not, or if you need the door fixed now, we can repair it and give you a written price first.
How long should the garage door on a newer home last?
It depends on how often you use it. A standard spring is rated for about 10,000 cycles, which is about 9 years at three cycles a day and 7 years at four. Other parts, like cables, rollers and openers, usually last longer, but they do wear.
Why is my garage door harder to open in winter?
Cold stiffens grease, drains batteries and can freeze the bottom seal to the floor. Lubricate the moving parts, replace the remote and keypad batteries and clear snow from the bottom of the door. If the door still will not move, do not force it. Call us.
Why does my remote or keypad work only some of the time?
Start with the batteries. Then check that the safety sensors are clean and lined up, and that the opener’s antenna wire is hanging free. If it keeps happening, the opener’s receiver may need repair. We can check on the visit.
Do you service detached garages?
Yes. We repair doors and openers on attached and detached garages. If a detached garage has shifted, the door may bind or stick. We check the tracks and balance on the visit and tell you what we find.
Should I try to fix a broken spring myself?
No. Springs and cables are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury. If you heard a bang, the door will not lift or a cable is loose, stop using the door and call us.
