Thanks for the tips and videos! I have another question - I've noticed something about installing wood over drywall in the spot abover the door, center where the bracket will go. Is this necessary or do I just need to make sure I drill into a stud or something?

I'm going to be installing a garage door opener in my newly built house when we move there in a couple of weeks. I've never done this before. I bought a Liftmaster Whisper Drive from Lowes and have read through the manual a bit. I'm more of a hands on learner which can prove to be troublesome...

Thanks, I'll check it out!

I went to Lowe's today in Plano and only saw I think Quikcrete and Rustoleum products/ Nothing resembling a "full kit" or Epoxy-Coat brand. I'd like to find this at Lowe's. I decided on Epoxy-Coat recently.

I don't know that I've seen this brand or the full kit at Lowes. Are we talking about this one? http://www.epoxy-coat.com/index.php

Sorry, my wife has been in "design mode" since we signed the sales contract for the house. It must have transfered over to me somehow haha! I just want a really nice, clean look with a little style/ life to it that isn't a bland color but not overwhelming. I could have sworn I saw a Porsche...

huh. looks blue on here but too light. I think I dialed in a color more like what I bought. I hope...

Wow! Thanks for the suggestions fellas! I quoted this one because I really like it! I'm horrible with colors (you should see what I show up to work wearing sometimes). I am now wondering if this would be a good combo - similar to the scheme in the quoted photos - blue on the bottom, a little...

My house is still being built and I'll be in there in about a month. I caught a great sale at Sherwin Williams and bought some grey and some darkish blue paint for the garage. My initial thought was blue from the floor up to about waist height, then grey for the rest. Should I buy another color...

Since you're in Dallas, I should call you and have you come help do my floor when my house is built! Nice work! All I can say is that you're nuts for doing it during this summer! It's been friggin hot!

I don't have one...yet. But I did interview for a job at BendPak about a year ago. I hope to have one of their lifts some day.

Out of curiosity how much did this product cost? It looks fantastic!

No worries! I hate creating new threads myself. Sometimes when you see the experts posting, you've gotta jump in. Hope they are able to help!

@ ghnl - I can't seem to find where it said the split garage thing. I went too deep into google research last night! Well, if it works with a standard 2 door garage that is all that matters to me! Thanks! EDIT: I found where it said this. It was a local garage door installer's site: "Model 3800...

@ ovilla - thanks for the link I will check it out. @ Indy_500 - That is sort of my philosophy with this. Or maybe I watch Holmes on Hoimes too much! I know how often we use our garage door opener at our apartment right now and it is an old, noisey, piece of junk. I want to do it right the...
