Spring break is usually a period of intense fun. However, not all spring breaks are good times. The one we are talking about will most likely produce a sudden, loud noise but is not followed by any fun at all. This noise resembles a gunshot. That sound will come from your garage.
Garage doors
It’s unwise to pay too much, but it may be even worse to pay too little!
It’s amazing what we can get used to in our lives. That noisy fan belt in your car? Chances are good you don’t even hear it anymore. The same thing applies to your garage door. If you go long enough with it squeaking and squealing, you might not even notice that it makes those sounds. We generally ignore small, minor noises. We chalk them up to normal operation.
No one really wants to believe that they can be the victim of a burglary, but the fact remains that it is one of the most common crimes in North America.
Are you planning a new home build? Perhaps you’re renovating your existing house, or maybe just remodeling the garage. In many instances, there are tons of things you can do on your own, from framing and general carpentry to pouring concrete footers for a new porch. However, there are things that should really be left to the professionals. For instance, you would probably never try to wire a new home’s electrical system on your own.
When it comes to residential garage door sizes, most of us have a pretty good estimate in mind. Single doors generally measure about nine feet wide by eight feet tall at the maximum. Double doors are usually 16 feet wide, but may be up to 18 feet wide. However, are those large enough for sports utility vehicles (SUVs)? What about recreational vehicles (RVs)?
In what may be one of the most shocking moments of your life, you found yourself seated in your car, inside your garage…well, only partly in the garage because you just backed into the door.
Have you ever wondered why a lot of people choose to park their car on the street instead of in their garage? It’s because they’ve identified a lot of other uses for their garage, and they’ve had a weather-tight, insulated garage door so that they can re-purpose the garage for other activities.
Garage doors are one of those modern conveniences we all take for granted until they stop working correctly. Perhaps you’ve recently found yourself in this situation. Your garage door has begun announcing when it’s in use with a jarring noise that you’re fairly certain can’t be normal. Well, you’re right.
