This is exactly what I was looking for. Lower min quantity. Where did you order the fixtures from?

Perhaps I need to consider another option before installing the wall... It's not very pleasant working out there most of the year. Just want to keep the cars separated from the work area to prevent 105degree temps inside during the summer, and be able to prevent 42 degree temps in the winter...

Any idea of the cost difference for 1 wall? Based on reading an article, it looks like it wouldn't be as beneficial on a newer home garage wall that has brick on the exterior. I would be putting blow insulation in the attic above, so this would be another cost for two types of insulation...

For the existing finished exterior wall, can I put two holes at the top section between the studs to blow in insulation, and then put a long piece of trim over the line of holes? I assume this would be much easier than trying to make a line of drywall hole repair visually appealing by...

Did you split a 3 car, or split a 2 car garage? I am not planning on putting a car in the third bay ... so if I wall it off, its just like a regular 2 car. I already have stuff in the way where the doors would open to the wall..... so i am already familiar with the door clearance.Thanks!

Could I just put both holes near the top and then put some type of border or trim over all the holes?

That's an idea, but I would be curious to know how well it insulates compared to a traditional insulated wall.

Thanks for the feedback!! Any suggestions on best way to insulate the existing walls that already have drywall up?

I have a workshop area setup in my 3rd car garage, and have cars in the 2 car portion. I am considering adding a door and a wall between the two areas, and insulating the garage. The main reason is to reduce temperature fluctuations hot with cars in the garage during the summer, and cold in...

My garage door (like most I believe) has a slot in the rail where the bar latches through when closed to keep it locked. I want to try and create another lock point several inches higher, so I can latch my door closed several inches off the ground to allow air to flow in during the evening...

I adjusted the lower limit, then again, then again, and it finally pushed the top of the door flush and no light comes through! Thanks for all of the help and assistance in resolving my garage door problem!!

exactly what I was looking for! I'll give it a try!

Is there a way to determine if I was it to close tighter again the ground or a little bit further away from the ground?

Some very good ideas here lately! I took a few pictures and included them below. When the cable is pulled and the door is released from the trolley, the door connector pushes closer to the opener. I would have thought it would have gone the other way if it was being pulled out, or perhaps it...

Alright, I did some more observing. I looked at the top left and top right corners. The garage door is flush with the side of the opening. There is no gap and no play. I put my hand along the top and side and verified this. Moving to the middle of the garage door there is a gap along the top...

Based on the light entering the garage, the gap is not consistent, so I should not adjust the top fixtures. (Are the fixtures that part that connects to the door by the rollers? Since it sounds like the above does not apply, I need to adjust the vertical tracks. I assume I start adjusting...

A couple concerns I was thinking of. The powered vent would need to be on the side with the work area, because it gets sun in the evening to power the vent, and I wouldn't want to pull in air off the hot bricks on the west side of the house in the evening. So thinking about this. The cool...

Great suggestion! Sounds like track adjustment should be easy. My only concern is is the gap just appears at the middle (perhaps the weather stripping isn't even and there are gaps on the side, but the weather stripping addresses the issue there, but since it isn't even in the middle, moving the...

Alright, I checked out the board and saw that the best solution is to use the green hinges that adjust so my garage door seals better, however I would like to try to adjust the vinyl weather stripping first. So, it sounds like the vinyl can break easily so I don't want to rush into this...

Exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for. I plan on finding a fan that turns on when the garage temperature is above the external temp, and then shuts of when it is cooler in the garage. Not sure if they make them like his or if I need to find a switch with two thermostats that you can...
