    How close can a garage door be framed to a wall?

    I have a 30x40 garage with a 26’ overhead door on the 30’ side. So 2’ on each side. Just make sure to tie your upper sheeting to the side walls and lvl’s and I used liquid nails on the sheeting and lvl’s. No issues.

    MyHot Dog won't work?

    I installed a 75000 btu hds heater a month ago. Went in the garage and turned the switch on and nothing happened. The thermostat said LO and changed the batteries and all was good.

    garage breaker in house keeps tripping

    Sounds like a similar problem I had in my previous house a few years back. Turned out to be a short in the wiring between house a garage.

    Bigger than usual door for new garage

    Thanks for the replies everyone. Charles, I have a PA-12.(36' wingspan). For the number of times it will go inside a year, my plan is just to put it dollies and roll it in/out sideways. The fuselage is just under 23' long.
