Have you ever build a overhead garage door?
January 24, 2008 – 5:13 pmI brought a 1956 old house last year.
The garage door is in fine shape, but sticks too often to say its a non-issue. I do have minimal carpentry experiece in that I can run base or crown, fab and trim a window sill, and construct a wall or tear one down and replace it with a beam. My problem is I cannot find a how to on constructing a garage door. I want to know if this is something I can tackle? Because, the alternitive of a new steel door would not mesh with the look of the old house as you can imagine. Any sound advise helps. I need to know evrything from the most basic to potential problems to necessary tools please advise…
Answer:
Mark it to see where it is sticking, sand or cut off the obstuction. Use line chalk on the rails. You may have a rail that moved out of position or lost some of its fasteners causing a bind periodically. Does weather have anything to do with your problem?
