C Town Doors - Local Garage Door Specialists
Serving Calgary And Surround Areas
A broken garage door spring is one of the most common — and urgent — issues homeowners face. If your garage door won’t open, only lifts a few inches, or slams shut unexpectedly, the spring is likely to blame. At C Town Doors, we provide fast, affordable garage door spring repair in Calgary, with same-day service available and no extra charge for evenings or weekends.
Garage door springs are under constant tension, supporting the full weight of the door. Over time, they weaken and eventually snap. Most springs are rated for 10,000–20,000 cycles (1 cycle = 1 open and close), which means even normal daily use can wear them out in 7–10 years.
Common causes of spring failure:
Important: Never attempt to repair or replace a garage door spring yourself — these components are under extreme tension and can cause serious injury. Always call a trained professional.
Garage Door Spring Upgrade
Want longer-lasting performance? We offer high-cycle springs rated for up to 25,000+ cycles — perfect for high-traffic households or commercial doors. Ask about upgrading during your service visit.
The Differences
We service and replace all types of garage door springs:
Mounted above the garage door, they offer smoother, more balanced operation and are the most common modern option.
Found along the sides of the garage door track. Less common today, but still used in older setups.
Our technicians will assess your system and install the right type and size of spring based on your door's weight, height, and usage.

We carry parts from top brands like LiftMaster, Amarr, Clopay, Garaga, Steel-Craft, and more. Whether you need a quick fix or want to DIY your repair, we have a wide selection in stock and are happy to help you find the right part.

Awesome company. Fast and decent pricing and the phone person and Jesse the tech was friendly. This is the second time I’ve used them and the last time they came on a Saturday and replaced my broken springs quickly as my cars were stuck inside and we needed to get out.

With an emergency service late night call to repair our garage door, Mr. Gal responded to our phone call immediately and was at our country house on time as promised. His work was excellent and professional. I recommend C Town Doors.

Highly recommend this company. We replaced everything, our garage door, rails, weather stripping, and motor with them. Everyone we talked to or did work at our house were professional and efficient, most importantly highly skilled.

Most standard garage door repairs can be completed in under an hour.
For example, a double door (16’ x 7’) will cost more than a single (9’ x 7’). Other factors like insulation level, window designs, and custom colors also affect the total. The best way to get an accurate quote is to contact us for a free estimate — we’ll walk you through the options and help you find the perfect door.
If your garage door only lifts about a foot and then stops, it’s likely due to a broken spring (or both springs). The opener alone isn’t strong enough to lift the full weight of the door. This is a common issue that requires spring replacement by a trained technician.
We don’t recommend it. Installing an opener involves electrical wiring, securing the motor to the ceiling, and properly connecting it to the garage door — all while working on a ladder. Without the right tools and experience, the job can be risky.
Garage door installation involves high-tension springs, heavy panels, and specialized tools. Attempting it without proper training can be extremely dangerous. For safety and proper function, it’s best to leave installation to the pros.
