    Insurance company. Never heard this one

    How much is the entire claim? not sure I would bother claiming what your describing, my fear would be increased rates or getting dropped in the future. It's too late now to change positions but Color matching seems petty thing they can avoid if nothing this is a good example of something to...

    Garage shelving poll

    Two different purposes really so hard to vote. Also what you do in a shop can be 100+ different things. Mechanic shop I doubt would want them ever too small, takes up too much room Shop that is making 3d printed items for customers might like to store parts on. Might make a good will call...

    Input on New 32x50 Garage. Size, Layout, Insulation, Heating, Building etc.

    I know your plan approved but if you can go wider I would consider it. 32 outside is about 30 inside, sounds big but throw a car or truck open doors and your maxed out, width wise pretty quick especially if you have anything on the wall and I know you want a lift so that will take space. I...

    65 in the shop when it's 33 outside?

    if your from Texas and this question is real then.... I feel the rest of the world understands why Texas is having an issue. For the uneducated, insulation only works when you have it. every location and hole that isn't sealed and insulated single pane windows is r1 at best. not suprisef...

    Non typical Garage doors.

    https://solidodesigns.com/contour-closures/ My understanding is they are the North America supplier for the track, roller, system, aka hardware, I believe the end manufacture Guttmann is from the other side of the pond around Germany, They use the system "hardware" with US garage door Haas to...

    Non typical Garage doors.

    I'm thinking of a 30 foot opening, so yeah would lose some floor space at the wall but I think a 1 foot loss X 30 ish might be worth it to gain space in the middle of the garage. But again space is space... And that is why I'm here looking for ideas and feedback

    Non typical Garage doors.

    What brand did you go with? Any idea on the R value? Sizes and R value are big considerations for me I plan to heat the garage above freezing for sure, suspect 45-60 ish range. Love the suggestions

    Non typical Garage doors.

    I suspect code would prohibit that idea of an access door. I think 3 feet clear is needed. On the false wall sure it could be done not sure I would install the panel on it but for sure for storage and other stuff. I need to find out more info on the bottom track as you and a few others have...

    Hanging sliding yes. Farms usually have lots of open space. I have some but not that good. Sliding and curving inside to a wall NO Sealing up to the wall no not really.

    Non typical Garage doors.

    YEAH you have good points, I spoke to the owner today and was able to get a lot of good info. I forgot about the springs, most of parts seemed available but for sure not on the shelf at HD. Track and hangers are special and the opener has a slight modification. But the door itself is off...

    Non typical Garage doors.

    They say it needs 6 inches, and you can easily build an interior wall around the space so you can still have shelves, and other hanging stuff. Basically a big pocket door. Depending on the setup of the garage and your needs .. say like a car on a lift moving the door to the side could be a...

    Non typical Garage doors.

    Has anyone seen - used - a door that opens horizontal? Info: In the design phase of my shop 44 x 50-60. 44 side will be the door side. 50-60 deep sort of dictated by costs, designer, DW, City complaints and what will work for the home and land. So while 2 doors 12 - 16 foot wide is nice...

    5HP Motor == A Re-labeled 3HP, and Vice Versa?

    2.6 lb differance means different motors no they are not the same. shaft, case, rotor might be the same but I suspect winding is different. I do know some gensets that are the same with different legs of windings used for different amps out but they weigh the exact same just wired different...

    My Compressor Aftercooler Install

    Just about any hydraulic hose shop could make you up any line you like in just about any size and fitting you could ever want. temp, pressure you need is epic low. Tell them your application and 5-10 min latter you will have what you want.

    Garage mod quote sanity check

    ok reread what you have.... if they are just moving the bottom chord up 3 feet... 25k is full retail on this in my opinion. I see no reason why you can't reuse most of your current bottom chords lumber. if it is just the lights up there then electric is minor. doors, sheetrock...

    Garage mod quote sanity check

    let's start over. what is part of this 25k? bid? I as well was thinking your were raising the roof 3 feet. aka wall height increase of 3. but it seems youare modifying only the inside. you seem to have rafters, which if you do would allow you to remove the ceiling, but What is keeping...

    picts of your in-floor heat set ups.

    Someone always moved it :lol_hitti that the best thing I have heard all day. Actually knowing this now that it's not as picky, I may rethink the complexity of my garage that I'm building. I will have a bathroom and plans for an office, so those will have a zone each but the open floor may...
