Should I install my own garage door opener?

• <div><p>We recommend hiring a garage door professional to install a garage door opener for you. Garage door openers aren’t terribly complex, but setting them up properly, setting the lift and drop speed, and installing sensors that work correctly can take a few hours for a DIYer. The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-garage-door-opener-cost.htm">cost to install a garage door opener</a> is around <b>$400</b>, and it will save you a lot of time and frustration. Garage professionals have the skills and equipment necessary to work with potentially dangerous garage door components, like springs.</p></div>

Q: What's the lifespan of garage door springs?

• <div><p>The lifespan of garage door springs depends on the type and quality of the springs, the physical environment, and the level of use. In general, properly installed and maintained springs open and close a garage door around 10,000 times . That equates to around seven years if you open and close the door about four times a day. If you use your garage door more frequently, live in a very cold or humid environment that promotes corrosion or rust, or have a very heavy door, your springs may wear out faster and require replacing sooner.</p></div>

Q: Is one or two garage doors better?

• <div><p>Single and double garage doors have pros and cons, but it's all based on personal preference regarding which one is better for you. Two single garage doors give you more control over airflow entering your garage but double the system, which means double the upkeep cost. </p><p>On the other hand, two-car double garage doors are more convenient but can stop you from leaving if a piece of hardware malfunctions.</p></div>

Q: Are garage heaters worth it?

• <div><p>If you enjoy tinkering with cars, woodworking, or exercising in your garage, then a garage heater may be worth it to you. If your garage is used mainly for storage, you may opt to skip installing a garage heater. If you live somewhere with favorable weather year-round, you can probably go without one as well. But for most homeowners, a garage heater is a good investment and makes the garage a more comfortable place to spend time.</p></div>

Q: Is it cheaper to buy a garage or build one?

• <div><p>In most cases, it&rsquo;s cheaper to build a garage, but it depends on how much of the labor you do yourself. If you can do most of it yourself, it tends to be cheaper than buying a prefab garage. But if you hire a contractor to build it, it&rsquo;ll likely end up more expensive than a prefab garage.</p></div>

They wanted half the money up front to do the job. This is not good business because of con artists taking money and not doing the job. He left very angry and did not close my garage door as requested. I would not recommend this business to others.

Warriner's Auto & RV Service Garage was real friendly. I did have to take it back for just a little thing but it worked out alright. I did have to take it back right after picking it up and it was fixed in 15 minutes. It was just a little sheet metal problem.

It was EXCELLENT. They were courteous and so hardworking that I had to encourage them to take breaks. They helped us pack up some really disorganized stuff in the garage, too, as well as the last odds and ends in the kitchen. They took great care of our stuff and were very quick.
