Garage doors

With winter coming soon, it’s essential to make sure you’re prepared and ready for any of the bad weather that could be on the way.

When remodeling your garage, you might consider replacing your garage door. However, did you know that not all garage doors are the same size? In fact, there is not set standard for garage doors. So, purchasing a new garage door might not be as easy as going down to the local hardware store and picking a new one out.

It’s been a long day. You pull up in front of your garage, press the open button on the remote, and you wait for the door to open. And then you wait some more. You press the button again, but still nothing happens. You realize that there’s something wrong, but it can’t be the remote, as you just changed the batteries. You realize with a sinking heart that you’re going to have to reprogram your LiftMaster/Chamberlain garage door opener.

It doesn’t matter where you happen to live. Power outages happen from time to time. It might be due to a storm, someone hitting a power line, heavy snow, or any other number of reasons. Regardless of what caused the problem, we all know that power outages aren’t typically a good time. If you are stuck inside, you can try to make the best of things, but sometimes you need to get out. However, if you have an electric garage door opener, you might be wondering how to do that. After all, doesn’t the opener need power to run?

Spring break is supposed to be a fun term, but it’s not when it involves your garage door. If you’ve heard a loud, gunshot-like noise that came from the garage door, there might be a problem.

Are you interested in garage doors that are produced of nothing except glass? You’ve certainly seen them at some of your much-loved eateries, on design television shows, or while scrolling Instagram.    

They say you should dress for success. What if the same goes for more than just your clothes? Maybe it’s time to take that same idea and apply it to your garage door. Here’s a little thought experiment. Close your eyes and imagine you have just walked outside and are standing on the curb. Now turn and face your house. What is the first thing you see? It’s probably your garage door. After all, a garage door takes up a good portion of your house’s exterior, especially if it fits 2 cars.

The front of your business is the first thing that people see when they pull up or drive by. How your store front looks is giving potential customers their first impression of your business, in many cases. So, you need to think about what message your commercial garage door is sending to the people who lay eyes on it. You want it to be making a statement about your business that goes along with what your company vision is.

Instead of calling the cops and venting about young people these days, you have two options: enlist the help of a professional cleaning company to disappear the problem; or try to remove the graffiti yourself with a little elbow grease.

The evening is a special time to relax and replenish in expectation for another busy day. It may seem obvious and a little strange to spend a blog talking about it, but it happens to almost everyone. Some extenuating circumstances cause us to rush into the house and forget about closing and securing the garage door. For some, rushing home to do vital tasks is necessary because of the pressures and fast-paced world around us. For many homeowners, this evening rush can cause them to forget to do something very important, close the garage door. You may say “No big deal, nothing to worry about.” Unfortunately, you may be wrong.
