About Me

I lived in my home for close to a decade before making any changes to the garage. What prompted me was a storm that loosened the hinges on the swinging doors. Rather than getting new hinges, I decided to look into the idea of an automated overhead door. A contractor checked the garage and found there was plenty of room to mount an overhead door. The motor tucked easily in a space above the door frame, and the unit was equipped with a remote control feature. I can't tell you how nice it is to pull in the driveway, use the remote, and drive into the garage without having to get out of the car. If your garage doors are due for an upgrade, let me tell you more about overhead doors. After learning about the benefits, I'm betting you'll be ready to make the change today.

Your New Garage Door Opener May Require Some Modifications

When you’ve lived for a long time with an old manual garage door, you don’t realize just how convenient a garage door opener can be. The installation of a new opener — so that you don’t have to lift up that heavy door by yourself anymore — is a good thing, but if your home has never had an electric opener in the garage before, you may need to make some modifications in order to get the opener to work with your door.
