Thanks! I also found Vault Cabinets during my recent searching, and the specs seem to live to that name. Almost certainly of my price range for what I'm looking for.

Bumping this very old thread because I'm curious to hear if there are any new names in the high end cabinet game that haven't been mentioned yet in this discussion. It's reassuring to see all the previously mentioned companies seem to still be going strong, so whatever cabinets I end up going...

Kept meaning to come back here and post progress shots, sorry about that. The floor turned out great, and was definitely the right choice for the first improvement to the garage. Everyone that sees it comments on how nice it looks and how much more welcoming the garage feels as a result. Here...

Since it'll be impossible to predict what new technology might come along in the future, what about adding some future proofing to make the installation easier in the future? Could you add PVC piping as cable ductwork in case you ever need to add more wiring in the future? That always seemed...

The current plan for garage upgrades: 1) Epoxy coating for the floor, including wall trim and crawlspace. 2) New garage door, a Coplay 18.4 R value with double pane, frosted windows (or some other privacy enhancing glass), and a Liftmaster 8500 jackshaft opener. 3) New window, double hung...

Finally got on the desktop and have some (before) pictures to share. The floor is my first objective in the garage. It's sealed, but cracked and ugly. After lots of back and forth between epoxy and tile, I booked Prestige Garage Floor to do the job. In the end I had it narrowed down to...

Reviving this thread instead of creating a new one. I have an HOA, and need to match the neighbors' garage doors, so I need a row of windows along the top of the garage door. I do like that they make the garage lighter, but like the OP, I live on a busier street and don't want people window...

Agreed! I wasn't expecting it to, but a two car garage became a minimum requirement when house hunting. I wanted space to have workshop and park car when I eventually buy new one. I may end up cutting into my bump out a bit in the future. I'm considering putting safe there and would like to do...

I think you're referring to the area taken up by the crawlspace, on the top left the floor plan? I took the glass half full approach in describing it and called the remaining area the bump out :). The garage is more of a 2.5 car, thankfully.

Been having technical difficulties getting more photos uploaded, but I'll post some of the "before" shots I took as soon as I can. I've had a garage door tech out already, and I think my first step is going to be upgrading from the uninsulated and partially broken door I have now to a 2" Clopay...

Any details on the garage sale? The garage door guy I spoke to quoted me $1200 installed for a Clopay, but I don't know if he was referring to the R18 or R9 door. I'm going with the R18 Clopay for my 16x7', just trying to finalize my window choice for the door. I've heard that double pane is...

I just bought a house, and one of my first projects that I want to undertake is to transform the bare, boring two car garage. I never liked the term "man cave," but having my own personal workshop - my own "sanctum sanctorum" (holy of holies) - seemed like a fitting place to combine the terms...

One other consideration for an Echo garage setup: you may not want to invest in any smart locks that you can unlock by shouting at. Alexa can't differentiate between people's voices, so if you keep the door to your garage/house locked and someone is aware that you have an Alexa controlled smart...
