Hello all. I'm David from BC, first time home owner lucky enough to find a place with a 3 car garage in my budget. I'm a gearhead and my garage is currently filled with a fiberglass boat resto project, 7 or 8 (maybe 9) motorcycles and motorcycle projects between my wife and I, a couple project cars, a small portable offshore hoist, and I'm slowly compiling sheetmetal working equipment.

Coming here in regards to door openers. It's a 3 car garage with 3 single doors. I'd love to turn 2 of the singles into one double but was quoted $18k, wayyy out of my budget. The overhead door openers limit how high I can lift a car on my hoist by alot, but I don't have the side clearance for a wall mounted opener (6 inch in the middle of 2 doors, and 2 inches between the doors and side walls)

But one of the overhead door openers stripped it's gears today and I really don't want to put another overhead opener in it, so I'm going to be looking for creative solutions...

Welcome to the Forum from the shores of both the Pacific Ocean and San Diego Bay. BC is a pretty broad geographic location, I have been assisted by strangers when i had car problems in both Kamloops and Dawson Creek.

I like the Geni brand of door openers for my rentals, because of their warranty and Customer Service, I generally buy them at Home Depot the lowest priced model that comes with a Lifetime Warranty, i have had decent results with Home Depot's contracted installers.

I don't know about what is available in Canada.
