I just dropped about 4 grand this year on new garage doors and openers. My garage is just shy of Taj Mahal so I went all out. Chamberlain DC openers, custom painted doors, etc.
I am simply stunned by the openers – they are sooo quiet that I can sneak in the house without even the dog knowing I’m home! And they slow down to a crawl just before reaching the fully open or closed position. nice touch!
I’ve got custom lighting, sheet rock, texture and paint throughout the garage…just have to decide whether I’m gonna epoxy the floor or not. I did it before on a prior home and it got quite slick when wet – don’t want wifey to break an ankle in her high heels. If I can live with the stray stain, I’m leaning towards leaving the floor au natural this time.
Everything in the garage is on rollers too – when it comes time to clean the floor I just roll everything out and bring in the hose for a quick power wash.
