    Below 265 SQ/FT Maximizing (possibly) America's Smallest Single Garage (19.5' x 9.25')

    Excellent work! I have to admit some of the before pictures are making my OCD twitch a bit but you have really done a nice job with that space!

    Homelink-like programmable garage door opener remotes?

    That‘s increasingly where I think I am headed but I think I need to find a remote button pushing device because unless I misunderstand the thing you posted, I think it remotely triggers a wire signal of some sort. The problem is both of my openers are a proprietary closed system where even the...

    Homelink-like programmable garage door opener remotes?

    I left out of the original post that I also ordered web/app based interfaces (different of course) for both openers as well but I really don't want that to be the primary use case. It's a nice backup, but I really don't want to have to dig my phone out of my pocket when I get home, find an app...

    Homelink-like programmable garage door opener remotes?

    I seek help from those with greater wisdom of garage door openers than me. As some of you know, I have a 2 level 150 year old barn that I have converted to a split level car barn - see proper thread here. The issue I am having is that the lower level has two swinging barn doors and the upper...

    Above 1200 Sq/FT Garage barn build - almost done

    A couple of barn updates: 1) I installed a basic but very convenient wall mount, retractable hose pressure washer on the lower level. I'm very aware that this a cheap/consumer grade pressure washer that the likes of Matt from Obsessed Garage would throw up on but I have this for very...

    I’m not sure how old it is - the house was built in 1850 but so much has been added/updated over the years, I just don’t have lot of info. It is not insulated at all but we do have heat - a LOT of heat. Propane heater on the lower level, a full furnace and 2 very powerful propane fired panel...

    I added a new car today - for now it will just park in front of the 4 cars on the upper level but I think I'm going to need to get another lift for a more permanent solution.

    I am not much of a Youtuber but tried to make a short video of my car barn now that it is basically done (minus 2 cars). Hope you all enjoy!

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    The Ferrari is back from engine major but now the E34 M5 is in for a differential leak that needs fixing. Maybe this weekend I'll have all 9 cars under one roof for the first time in weeks.

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Rainy and gross weekend here so I didn't get to do much driving. Instead I put Aquapel on 8 of the cars (Ferrari is getting its engine major at the moment) which required some deep cleaning/polishing on my wife's Defender which had some very stubborn hard water spots. I also took the occasion to...

    Ha! That's how I feel when I see people who use their garages for junk storage/home gym/anything-other-than-car-parking!

    Thanks ODIS - and wow! I just poked through some of your 50+ page thread and while I will need to give it a proper read when I have more time, I am blown away - that’s amazing!

    What's on your walls?

    Thanks, I have started poking around ebay mostly and found some stuff. There are also sites like garageart.com but those can get expensive. The other issue is I don't have much eye for decoration - or at least I know what I like or don't like when I see the finished product but I have a hard...

    Well, I told him to make the lines straight and my wife doesn’t like it so next season we are going back to squiggly cut…
