    new kind of garage lift

    https://www.autostacker.com/ Has anyone seen or bought one of these yet? Looks interesting and is made/owned by Bendpak. I need a lift purely for storage and this looks like a nice, unobtrusive solution. Any input or experience would be greatly appreciated.

    Help Me Pick A Garage Door Style

    How about aircraft hangar style bi-fold doors? The "fold" in the door is horizontal and opens completely outside the garage envelope.

    Garage door experts - here's a headscratcher

    Again, good idea but too late to do that. Thanks. This is the first thing I thought of and may still go there. I like the bi-fold doors better but will keep rollup as an option. Thanks. Another good idea. Thanks. Certainly this is the easiest solution. As small as it would be, I would...

    Garage door experts - here's a headscratcher

    I get what you're saying but would still prefer there to be no interference. In addition to the cars I will have artwork, memorabilia and other stuff on the walls. I am all ears though if you still want to share your idea. Thanks. Thank you. Glad to know this. I think I follow your idea...

    Garage door experts - here's a headscratcher

    We are good. Inspector has already ok'd. With framing completed, windows installed and sheetrock being hung as we speak, the architecture of the house is what it is and won't change. So my options seem limited to changing the type of door for that bay to either bi-fold or roll-up unless I...

    Garage door experts - here's a headscratcher

    Thanks everyone for the ideas. I really appreciate it! Interesting thought, thanks! Thanks. The second door was already planned to go straight up the wall for that very reason. Thought about that during planning but the width (or depth) of the porch would create an even narrower viewing...

    Garage door experts - here's a headscratcher

    I'm building a new house and have come across a design problem. It will have a 4 car garage with 2 double doors that will ultimately hold 6 cars, 2 of which will be on lifts. My man cave is positioned upstairs over roughly the first 1 1/2 bays of the garage. It will have floor to ceiling...

    Sorry, forgot to mention that the windows are already full length. Still no line of sight. Good thoughts, thanks.

    lift positioning question

    I appreciate the input and since you guys keep offering help perhaps I should give a little more info for some possible solutions. The first two garage bays which are closest to the rest of the (attached) house are for my wife's and daughter's SUVs. That part of the garage will have a normal...

    lift positioning question

    Not sure I understand this. Can you explain a little more? Thanks. I had not seen this one but it doesn't get the car as high as I want it to be. Unfortunately, too tall Good idea, but the lifts would need to be next to each other on the side of the garage where the ceiling height is...

    lift positioning question

    Oh well, like I said, didn't even think of this until after construction began. Thanks for the input anyway. I don't think it saves any space at 202" wide compared to 2 x 100" for the HD-7 models. Am I missing something?

    lift positioning question

    More want than have to have right now but if/when I buy one more car, I'll need the second one. Garage doors are 18' wide and I think garage is 22' deep. The door on the side of the garage where I want lifts will go straight not turn but go straight up the wall. Looking at Bendpak and...
