    Recommendation on Racedeck Flooring

    Great info thanks! I do not have a color selected. The installer I am going to use offers design services. Would install myself but I barely have time to even drive my cars... As far as ceiling height I am at 12'8". It's high enough that I can raise the lift all the way with my cars. If I...

    Actually I went with the 30's which I regret. The 39's weren't in stock in Harlig and I didn't want to wait. But I still have MORE than enough storage.

    The lift is a Direct Lift ProPark 8 Plus. $2500 installed. I looked at a lot of lifts and the combo of price/quality/dimensions/certification and ease of availability are what sold me. Was delivered in two days and installed by a local guy on the third day. The cabinets are Ikea Akurum...

    They are absolutely IKEA cabinets. The whole setup of cabinets including the countertops, legs, etc. etc. was $1500. No WAY you can find anything near as good quality for the same price.

    Ask all the questions you want! The ceiling height is just a shade over 12 feet. The casters are for the four post lift. It can be repositioned if so desired (not that I would).

    Countertop Surface-need opinions

    I got my garage cabinets from IKEA. Looks great and I went with their beech countertops. Work great and if they get banged up you can sand. Or replace for $40 a piece....

    Do I really need copper or iron airlines?

    Thanks everyone for the advice. The only true answer seems to be there are multiple answers!!!! I am going to research the cost to implement black pipe and do that if it isn't too difficult. If not I am going to go with the soft piping setup.

    Do I really need copper or iron airlines?

    My compressor is going to be mounted just outside my garage. The line to the interior fitting for the airtools around the car is around 3 feet (and then maybe 30 feet of hose for use around the car). My interior fitting for my bench is ~10 feet from the compressor (maybe 20 feet of line...

    Garage slab poured!

    The lot is 7000sf which is actually large for our neighborhood. Which is insane considering houses in this neighborhood START at around $900k. We have a big front yard (~2200sf). A lot of the other houses are pushed further up on the street but ours but built with a large setback because it...
