So, here's the question... I have 4 Wayne Dalton commercial steel doors that are 10' wide by 8' tall. Has anybody ever seen an insulation kit for that size? All I can find are for residential doors. Is there an alternative to a "kit"? These doors face east, so get almost too hot to touch in...

Paul; I just checked out your site and your work and all I can say is WOW!:shocking: Great work, unbelievable work. Amazing! Again WOW!:thumbup:

Gentlemen; I'm curious, did any of these products affect the weight of the door, thereby affecting the spring. Did anyone have their springs tightened after installing the insulation? I have 10' X 10' doors and the last time the garage door guy came out we talked about insulating the doors and...

oldmxracer; I was thinking eventually a slab. Temporarily probably just dirt. I may look into compacted stone though, might be a good idea. My only concern is, the lean-to doesn't seem to be made as well as the rest of the shop, so I'm not sure if putting in a slab and insulation etc. is going...

Hey Shorty;:hellobye: This is farm country out here. They don't bang on you for outbuildings, but they sure do on the house. I could build a 4 acre shop under one roof and it wouldn't change my taxes whatsoever. It seems like it would cost more to go up than sideways. I know that's true in...

Steevo; I'm actually from Los Angeles, the phoenixop is what I did in Vietnam, and yup, Kuna feels like the boonies. I have to drive 19 miles round trip to go to the grocery store, 6 to the gas station. Boonies... I'll throw a couple pics of the Riv up. It's a work in progress... Kinda like...

Thank you all. I appreciate the welcome. I like this place already.:)

Steevo; Thanks for the welcome. Also thanks for the hi-five for the Riv. Where in southeastern Idaho? I'm in Kuna. The stall/lean-to is roughly 12' wide and probably that long, cause the dually is nose to back wall. It's a standard cab, 8' bed. Each bay is 12' wide with 10' wide doors on bays...

Just introduced myself over in the new guys section, now it's time to ask the really big questions. I have this shop (see pics I hope) and I need to use more of what I have since I'm running out of room for all the cars/truck. Behind the shop is an ex-stall, where, unfortunately, I am...

:hellobye:Just a short Hello from the boonies of Idaho. From watching this site for a while, I figured out there are some really smart people here. Guys (and gals?) who got their garage/shop/shed/lean-to act together. I wanna be one of those guys. So in the spirit of education (namely mine), I...
