cheap door options for my mini garage??

[Lewisthepilgrim]

Hey guys whats up? I have a super small garage that I park my BRZ in for the winter. I am looking at those metal roll up doors , but they are kinda pricey. Any ideas for an affordable garage door option?

the garage door will be 7'2'' wide, and only 5'5'' tall.

I was thinking I could just frame in a couple outswinging doors from wood and T111 siding or something. But the problem is they ALWAYS freeze shut in the winter ! (the snow piles up in front of them making it a super PITA to open)

any ideas???

California one piece swing up doors might be an option. There is a small company in California that still makes the kit. It consists of the arms, spring, track rollers, a complete set up. You build the door and install hardware. Keep in mind you will need to know the weight of the door to make sure you get the correct springs.
