I don't know how to post this, especially since the rules require prices. Admins, any assistance is appreciated I live in Orlando and my father-in-law lived in Santa Rosa, CA. He recently passed away and has a two car garage full of woodworking tools as his shop. He did quality woodworking...

I'm looking for some assistance from those familiar with the Genie jackshaft garage door opener. My son bought one for my high lift door because he's tired of manually lifting the door in the rain. He bought it used from a builder that said it was installed for two weeks and they removed it...

I'm looking for some advice from others on adding light to the garage, without overdoing it. I have a 3 car garage, about 29x21, that the builder put two 2-bulb, 4 foot light fixtures in. The lighting was barely sufficient before I put the lift in, but as you can see in the picture below, one...
