Ryterna, established in 1993 in Kaunas, Lithuania, manufactures approximately 80,000 doors annually with over 520 employees across Europe. Their made-to-measure approach means every door is custom-built to your exact specifications at no additional cost—a significant advantage over North American brands that charge premiums for non-standard sizes.
If you’re looking for a garage door that makes a statement, Ryterna delivers innovation like no other manufacturer in North America. These aren’t just garage doors—they’re design statements that integrate seamlessly with your home’s architecture
The most important—and often overlooked—difference between Ryterna and other brands is spring longevity. Springs are the most common failure point on garage doors, and replacement typically costs $380-$480, including labor.
| Brand | Standard Cycles | Expected Lifespan* |
|---|---|---|
| Ryterna | 25,000 | ~17 years |
| Amarr, Clopay, C.H.I. | 10,000 | ~7 years |
| Wayne Dalton, Garaga, Steel Craft | 10,000 | ~7 years |
*Based on 4 cycles per day, average residential use.
Ryterna also offers upgrade options to 50,000 and 100,000 cycles—the latter effectively providing lifetime spring coverage for residential use.
Ryterna offers four panel thickness options, all using Freon-free polyurethane foam insulation—the same material used in premium coolers and refrigeration units:
| Thickness | U-Value | Noise Reduction | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| 30mm (1¼”) | ~1.3 W/(m²·K) | -22 dB | Basic residential |
| 40mm (1⅝”) ★ | ~1.1 W/(m²·K) | -25 dB | Calgary homes |
| 60mm (2⅜”) | ~0.8 W/(m²·K) | -28 dB | Premium/workshops |
| 80mm (3⅛”) | 0.5 W/(m²·K) | -32 dB | Commercial/industrial |
★ Recommended for Calgary’s climate
For most Calgary homes with attached garages, we recommend the 40mm panel—it provides excellent thermal performance, superior noise reduction, and handles our temperature swings from -30°C to +30°C without issue.
Ryterna’s made-to-measure approach means your door can be truly one-of-a-kind. Unlike North American brands that offer limited color palettes, Ryterna can factory-paint your door to any RAL color—over 200 standard options plus custom color matching.
Choose from 14 distinct panel profiles: Flush, Rib, Midrib, Toprib, Macrorib, Microrib, Slick, Slick Plus, Georgian, Cassette, and more. Each design is available in multiple surface textures including smooth, woodgrain, and stucco finishes.
Special Finishes: Metallic, Stainless steel effect, RAL Pearl options
Alumax Collection: Features 2.5mm aluminum sheet cladding that can be milled with custom designs—perfect for house numbers, company logos, tree motifs, or geometric patterns.
Okoume Wood Collection: 12mm or 18mm marine-grade Okoume plywood cladding on steel panels. Lacquered or painted to any RAL color for the warmth of real wood with the durability of steel construction.
Retro/Carriage House Collection: Modern sectional door engineering with old-world aesthetics. Composite decorative overlays and optional decorative hardware create the look of traditional carriage doors without the maintenance.
Slim-Line Collection: Narrow 10-15cm glazed panel inserts with optional LED illumination—perfect for contemporary homes wanting natural light without compromising on insulation.
Ryterna offers extensive glazing options to bring natural light into your garage while maintaining thermal performance:
Glass Types: Clear, frosted, tinted, or obscured for privacy
✔ Double Steel Skin Steel Construction.
✔ Aluminum Sheet Cladding.
✔ Carved decorative designs (optional).
✔ 40mm PU Insulation.

One of Ryterna’s most unique offerings is its built-in wicket doors, walk-through garage doors, or pass-through garage doors, a feature rarely found among garage door manufacturers. We are the only garage door company in Calgary that offers this unique product locally. This smart addition allows easy access without opening the entire door, making it perfect for homeowners who frequently use their garage as a workspace, gym, or secondary entrance. Designed to blend seamlessly, these pass-through doors come with multiple threshold options, including low-profile versions for easy accessibility. Calgary garage door selection just got much richer with our Ryterna partnership.
A home’s first impression starts with its entrance, and Ryterna ensures that your garage door and entry door complement each other flawlessly. Homeowners can select matching garage doors and entry door sets, materials, colors, and design elements, creating a visually unified exterior that enhances the overall appeal of their property. Whether you want a contemporary, industrial look or a warm, rustic charm, Ryterna’s design continuity brings harmony to your home’s facade.

Not every homeowner needs a premium European garage door, and we understand that. That’s why we also offer Northland garage doors—a Canadian manufacturer known for reliable, well-built doors at accessible price points.
Northland doors provide excellent value for homeowners who want a quality insulated garage door without the extensive customization options of Ryterna. They’re a smart choice for rental properties, budget-conscious renovations, or anyone who simply wants a reliable door that looks good and performs well.

Most Calgary homes use standard sizing, but we can accommodate custom dimensions:
Single-Car Garages: 8×7, 9×7, or 10×7 feet (9×7 is most common in townhouses). For taller vehicles, 8×8, 9×8, and 10×8 options accommodate SUVs and vans.
Double-Car Garages: 16×7 feet is Calgary’s most popular size, followed by 16×8 for homes with taller vehicles.
RV/Custom: Heights of 10-14 feet serve recreational vehicle owners. Ryterna can manufacture doors up to 8 meters wide × 3 meters tall, and their made-to-measure approach means precise fitting at no extra cost.
Beyond traditional overhead sectional doors, we offer specialized door types through our exclusive Ryterna partnership:
Walk-Through Garage Doors: Sectional doors with integrated pedestrian doors (wicket doors) for convenient access without opening the entire garage. Perfect for homes without a secondary garage entrance or for workshop use.
Side-Hinged Garage Doors: Traditional swing-out doors with modern insulation and security. Ideal for garages with low headroom or ceiling obstructions.
Side-Sliding Garage Doors: Horizontal operation along the wall—perfect for garages with vehicle lifts or limited ceiling clearance.
Matching Entry & Garage Door Sets: Create a unified exterior with coordinated front entry and garage doors in matching colors, materials, and design elements.
