Make My Garage Door Taller

The garage is a total of 24 wide by 24 deep.

Make my garage door taller.

The door track should be easy as well. I had a 2x6 on the flat under the header so i just removed that and cut a half inch off the header. This would be closer to 10 000. The wife wants to replace the two with one 16 overhead garage door.

The replacement garage door should be one that hangs above the front of the garage and lowers down from the outside so it doesn t affect the height of the garage. I live in northern new jersey. We had a few contractors in to give us. I have a detached two car garage that is getting up there in years.

The garage also needs a new floor and a new roof. I would also go a few feet taller this would allow for a taller mudroom whose roof would actually clear the edges of my back door. An alternative would be a pocket garage door that slides sideways on tracks from within the garage door itself so that again the height or width are not effected. That made my door height two inches taller.

I removed some siding and and re did the trim on the top of the door and then recovered every thing with aluminum and installed new rubber garage door sill around the opening. That is the easy project as the building is plenty tall for this. It has the old style carriage doors.
