Looking good!

I'm a young buck like yourself building something similar only a few minutes up the road from you in Mechanicsburg/Carlisle. Great inspiration here for sure.

Can't wait to see the projects you have planned.

What are the dimensions of your storm water management pit? I'm in SE PA and have to do a 30x3 for just a 24x32 garage. Looks like you might have more favorable requirements.

It does seem to be quite the racket, though. No consideration for current and future storm water management, we have to build one no matter what. I understand the importance of managing water runoff but I'd prefer a survey and the tow ship designing for the project, not forcing all new builds to have huge trenches.

Ours is 20'x20'x10'. The interesting thing was they required it for our pole building but not for our house built 1.5 years ago. Haha. The house just runs out into the woods. [emoji848]

In Delaware the stormwater is done using a volume based approach. They actually want you to disconnect your downspouts so they run across your yard and give the water a chance to filter. There are no requirement for containment on individual lots in a rural setting. If youre in a developemt it quite different.

Wow! Beautiful garage! Really nice job.

Two questions.

What did you do for trim under the OH door tracks? Did you flash it before the door tracks went on or paint it? Hard to see from the pics.

What did you use at the bottom of the metal liner panels on the inside? Is it just caulk?

I didn't trim around my doors now debating taking them down or just sliding metal behind the tracks carefully.

Update:
Electrician should be out tomorrow to finish the compressor wire and rewire our new garage door and lift!
We had to take down the track and unit since the lift is going right where that was... [emoji17]
Oh well, we put a side mount in on that side.

Thank you!

The paneling was installed before the tracks were put up.
The bottom of the panels have a lip attacked to them that actually sits above the floor just a hair.

I can take more pics of anything if you want! Sorry for the delayed response. Been so busy with work.

Very cool. Is that little yellow square on the floor to help figure out where to stop? Or what is it for?

Thank you!

Yes it is a guide. You stop the vehicle either right before, on, or right after depending on the size.

And some scenery from the woods behind my garage. It's like 75 degrees. Love it.
