How often should you clean your garage?

• <div><p>How often you clean your garage depends on what you do in there and its overall level of disarray. You should clean the garage once every season, though some experts say every month. Decluttering and <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-often-deep-clean-house.htm">deep-cleaning</a> once a year is enough for garages used primarily for storage, but if you do car maintenance or other hands-on project in the space, you’ll need to clean more frequently. </p></div>

Q: How do I stop cold air from coming under my garage door?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s best to prevent cold air from entering your garage through the space underneath the garage door. Stop cold air in its tracks by adding or replacing the weatherstripping underneath the door seal. You can also add weatherstripping along the sides and top of the garage door to prevent air leakage, and it&rsquo;s a relatively easy DIY fix.</p></div>

Q: What style of garage door is cheapest?

• <div><p>Sheet metal garage doors, particularly steel and aluminum, have the cheapest materials and installation. Experienced homeowners may cut and shape the metal themselves; however, you can buy prefabricated metal from a hardware store or pay a metal fabricator to shape the metal to your specifications. Steel and aluminum garage doors can cost as little as $500 and go up to $3,000.</p></div>

Q: How can I open the garage door when the power is out?

• <div><p>There are three ways to open the garage door when the power is out. One is to invest in a solar panel and battery system or generator backup power. Another method is to use the quick-release key to disconnect the garage door from the garage door opener. You can also use the key to your house to wait out the power outage and reset the garage door opener once the power returns.</p><p>If your garage door key is inside your home and you don&rsquo;t have a spare key on hand to access your entry points, then <a href="https://www.angi.com/companylist/locksmiths.htm">call a locksmith</a>.</p></div>

Q: Where should garage door sensors be located?

• <div><p>Garage door sensors should be installed on each side of the door, typically six inches off of the ground. The sensors communicate through an infrared beam, so they need to face each other directly for the system to work properly. Make sure they&rsquo;re level and aligned, and keep the area around them clear. If they&rsquo;re too high or out of alignment, your garage door won&rsquo;t function properly. </p></div>

These two gentlemen were great. Fair price, fast service, on time, and very professional. I plan to use them again next spring when I clean out the garage. I highly recommend them.
