Garage door frozen to the floor? Stop pressing the opener. Free the seal first, then lift.

The first snow melts along the bottom of the door and freezes overnight. Forcing it can damage the opener or tear the rubber seal.

If it's stuck:
• Chip the ice along the seal with a plastic scraper, never a metal blade or shovel edge
• Lift slowly once it lets go
• Sweep away the ice and slush so it can't refreeze

Before tonight's freeze:
• Clear snow and slush from the door's bottom edge
• Run the door once a day in cold spells
• Slow opener in the cold? Silicone spray on rollers and hinges, not heavy grease

Still won't budge, or a spring looks broken? Leave it closed and call a pro.

Save this for the next cold morning.
Has your garage door ever frozen shut?

No ceiling space for a garage door opener? Put it on the wall.

A wall-mount (jackshaft) opener sits beside the door, not in the middle of your ceiling.

Why people choose one:
• Low garage or no room overhead
• Ceiling stays free for storage racks
• No belt or chain running overhead
• Some models have Wi-Fi and battery backup

Tip: cheaper wall-mount units get discontinued, and parts get hard to find. Ask about the model before you buy.

Save this for your next garage project.

Home is where we return, reconnect, and gather around the people who matter most.

Wishing you and your loved ones a warm and meaningful Thanksgiving.

Harry and Marv don’t need an invitation. Just an opening.

Heading away for Thanksgiving weekend? Before you pull out of the driveway, watch your garage door close all the way. Pressing the remote isn’t the same as checking.

If it stops short or reverses unexpectedly, get it checked before leaving. Lock the connecting door to your home, too.

Be honest: do you watch it close, or drive off before it reaches the ground?

The first freezing morning is the worst time to discover your garage door has been warning you for weeks.

With overnight temperatures already dropping close to freezing in Alberta, take five minutes to check:

• Does the door complete a full cycle smoothly?

• Is the bottom seal cracked, brittle or letting daylight through?

• Are the safety sensors clean and working properly?

• Do the springs or cables show gaps, rust or fraying?

Look — but don’t touch. Garage door springs and cables are under high tension and should never be adjusted without proper training.

Save this checklist before the next cold snap.

If something doesn’t pass, stop using the door and message B&W Garage Doors.

Alberta’s colder months are coming and your garage door shouldn’t wait until the first freezing morning to tell you something’s wrong.

Pay attention if your door has started moving unevenly, hesitating, making unusual noises or not closing as smoothly as before.
Noticing something that doesn’t sound or move right?

Garage door spring broken? Springs carry most of the door weight, and when they fail, your
door may not open at all. This is one of the most common repairs we see in Calgary.

05/01/2026

Is your garage door slow or struggling to open? This could mean worn springs or motor strain.
Small issues like this can quickly turn into full system failure.

04/28/2026

Garage door remote not working? Before replacing the opener, check the battery and signal range. Many issues are simple fixes that homeowners overlook.

04/23/2026

Garage door stuck halfway? This is usually a spring issue or opener problem. Forcing it can
damage the system or cause injury. It is always safer to have it checked by a professional.
