the home renovations begins.....

i guess the motor is some sort of a mechanical stop, after all the spring is just to make it easier to open

I would think to ask the G Door company....I have worked on enough 'normal' 16-18' wide overhead doors to know they are HEAVY AS HELL, and when a 'normal' sping breaks, you can't open the door, if it's anything but just a thin metal shell, like mine with brace bars....all you can do to get a 2x4 on a fulcrum under the damn thing to lift it enough to do anything, if needed.....

I hesitate to rely on any mear opener for a safety stop....but I didn't design or do the install, just a word of caution so for the knowing....please do some investigation over it....maybe call the maker, see what they say....get it from horses' mouth.......I would not trust any mear installer on that one....:twitch::amazed:

Didn't take long to fill up that garage.

Sweet, looks like dawgwood and cherry tree in front....

my house up there was on a street that was lined both sides with cherry trees that the whole street lit up like the memorials downtown....

:bounce:

the garage did fill up fast and i need to go through it again and push stuff out that i dont need.....the trees are both dogwoods in the front, i was scared that they might not have made it through all the construction
