Hi, I bought a 7x16 enclosed trailer which is being used as more of a 'garage' than a trailer. I am trying to get the best parking & can use some help. I am attaching photos but the big issue is parking it back far enough to get the door open & enough pavement for loading. I assume I need...

Hi, I was looking to buy a shed & was originally looking at at 12x14 shed. One of the options is to put a 8' garage style door on it which got me thinking if i could park a car inside it (I dont have a toy to fill it yet). So I started to think a 12x20 might be good for a large shed or...

Hi, So i replaced a Modine PA50AB with a new modine hot dog heater during a renovation this summer in my garage. That new heater is amazing. It heats up the place to 75 degrees in 20 minutes from 50 degrees. Its great! The older modine had a wall mounted thermostat & I dont really get how...

Hi, I am having a hard time organizing my tools. Specifically all the Dewalt drill bit kits, and impact bit kits. I cant seem to stop buying them when I see them at Home Depot or Lowes or whereever I am. I think I might have a problem buying too many tools. I have spent most of this weekend...

Hi, I am in the middle of adding a garage & was thinking about adding a lift in the future, or now. What is the minimum height needed for a 2 post lift? My plan for the lift would be primarily for extra parking (1 vehicle parked on the lift, the other parked under). Can it work with 8 or 9...

Hi, I have 3x 8 foot doors and am adding another 10 foot garage to an accessory building. I have to buy new doors since I am going for the carriage house look, but I started to think about going for 9 footers vs 8 footers. The siding is coming off & we are putting a stone veneer on the front...
