    Increase garage opening from 7' to 8'

    Great things to think about. They made me double check a couple things. I think the reason they are originally 7' doors is because this house was built in the 1970s up in the mountains. Obviously not certain but I know they used a wood burning stove for heat for the longeest of times so its...
