No opinions on the pre-built cost vs a stick built?

I'm fine with no heat/ac etc i save most service/projects for the colder months.

My current garage is 30x45 on a concrete slab, vinyl siding two garage doors a few windows and 1 door with no insulation no ac/heat no drywall. It was stick built back in 2005 i paid 30k for it. I like it just wish it was bigger as it is full. I went out and priced a pre-fab garage by pre-fab...

The center part of the block. Just in case i hit it.

If i where to drill into the center part of the cinder block would it fall apart?

That is actually the brand I bought. I do not have a sds plus tool will it not fit into a chuck? Maybe I’ll just buy the cheap harbor freight one. Home depo wants $40 for a day rental.

heres a pic it does not have to be super strong just needs be somewhat flat.

I have a thin peace of metal that i need to attach a nut to in order to screw something to it i've been using JB weld to hold the nut but it does not always work is there a better way? I don't have a welder.

After looking at prices i may be better off just buying two new garage door openers with the battery backup. Mine are from 2008 and work fine but are chain drives. How long do they usually last?
