Most door dealers can get large radius track...any door dealer can get high-lift. If you have a door dealer that carries CHI brand doors; CHI has 10", 12", 15", 20", and 32" radius tracks. Most manufacturers have 12", 15", and 32" now days. Maybe others can offer manufacturers with other...

Yea, the dummy section is always an option, but I think it looks like **** from the inside, and it make the door cost more. Especially when the 3800, or other variations of opener, are available. For anyone considering the 3800 opener, I believe the sideroom requirement is around 8". You'd...

That is correct...but it's technically not highlift. 32" radius, although puts the door higher from the floor when in the horizontal track, is still considered normal lift track. High-lift "technically" is only when the door travels straight up the wall in a vertical extension track (which is...

NOVA65SS - If you can show me a video of just one high-lift door with a trolley opener, I'll eat my words and give you a ton of love. Common physics says it cannot be done. If a conventional opener could lift a high-lift door, then there would be no reason to make the multitude of...

larryv - You need an electric outlet on the ceiling or wall up front where the 3800 will mount. If you get this done now, it will look like the garage was made for these openers. If you have current outlets on the ceiling for overhead openers...that's cool because the light fixtures for the...

That's what I was afraid of. Too bad.

The Liftmaster 3800 uses a DC motor so it can be variable speed. DC motors are not rated in HP...but the Liftmaster has made it's "power" as close to 1/2hp as possible. There is a commercial version; the 3900, but it's not different except the wall control. They are both considered...

Actually...the cheapest I've seen them is on Ebay. I'm a garage door/opener dealer, and we buy them for the same price they're selling on ebay...shipped. You could check some local Liftmaster dealers...but ebay might still the the best deal. Here's $295 shipped

Nova65SS...You are incorrect. A conventional opener will absolutely NOT work with any high-lift track over 3-inches. That's right...3 INCHES. A conventional trolley cannot pull the door UP as required by high-lift track. A conventional opener will only work with RADIUS track...and the amount...

There's actually a wireless wall control now available. Part number 378LM. Just like a wall control...just battery operated for no-wires. It's meant to be a secondary button, but it could be used otherwise.

What about the Coleman TD2 stuff. I saw them at Lowe's. They aren't steel, but they look pretty nice, and the cost is lower. Anyone had any experience with these? http://www.colemanstorage.com/

You cannot use a conventional "trolley" style opener with high-lift track of more than 3". With high-lift track, the door goes up the wall and then breaks over and goes back. A conventional opener pulls rearward only. If you simply put on high-lift track, raised the opener up, and put a...

I had 20yr Owen's Corning shingles (25sq) on a walkable roof prices to me from $8000-$10,000. There were from roofing companies. I ended up buying Lifetime Owen's Corning shingles and all the materials on my own and contacting a roofer from one of the companies. He, and 4 other of the roofing...

Depending on your area and the many, many options available...you're looking at $600 or so. Assuming you install yourself. Front doors are another story...with some fancy glass, you can be knocking on $1500 easy. Find a dealer in your area that has a display and check them out. You'll easily...

Everything is just so darned expensive.

Free sounds especially good. I'll check Sears and just watch for good pricing since I'm not in a real hurry.

I want to remodel my garage for automotive detailing, and was just wondering what tpye of cabinets everyone is buying. I see alot of Gladiator stuff, but is that the best? Anything else out there that you all like better (and are more reasonably priced)? Thanks.

Super nice doors. They are available in many colors and many glass styles (frosted be the most popular). If you have ANY cold weather in your area, you'd have to have insulated glass...and ever then, you're going to lose heat. The aluminum will condensate with changes in weather and humidity...

If you want the best residential entry doors available...check out Provia (www.proviadoor.com). They make the best, but they are expensive. You can get steel or fiberglass. Their steel doors are 20ga, and I assume you they will not dent or rust. They are one of the only residential entry...
