Re: Reconfiguring my little shop ... maybe.

Moving the roll up door from the front to the rear would be easy enough, I have a brother that is a builder. But I don't have the real estate in the back to be able to use a 14 foot door. And then the front wouldn't look esthetically as nice as it does now. I would put my work bench along that wall.

I only call it a man door because that's what the builders called it, and what the city required. Cant have just a garage door on a stand alone building.

One thing I did put in to save space is a really nice garage door opener. Its drives the shaft. No weird chain or belt system that extends in to the middle of the garage. When the door closes it also has a solenoid that pushes a shaft in to the track of the door so it cant be pulled open. I would just move that to the new door but leave the tracks on the old door in case the next person that owns our home wants to have the door useable.

I dunno though. I was talking to my honey about it again and she is in push back mode. Maybe if I do a few things around here she has been wanting done she will give in =)
