Q: Can I use a torch to melt the ice in front of my garage door?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to use a torch to melt ice on your garage door, but we don&rsquo;t recommend it. It&rsquo;s very easy to bring the flame too close to the door, which can melt the weather stripping or even the garage door itself. You&rsquo;ll melt ice quickly with a torch, but the damage you&rsquo;re likely to cause can end up costing you a few hundred dollars to fix, which isn&rsquo;t worth it. Instead, we recommend pouring hot water over the frozen area or using a less intense heat source, like a hair dryer or space heater.</p></div>

Q: Is it safe to install a pet door on my garage door?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/are-pet-doors-your-garage-door-safe.htm">not safe to install a pet door on your garage door</a>. Garage doors that tilt upward can roll up with your dog inside the door without you realizing it, making them dangerous and potentially deadly. Most dog doors also won&rsquo;t fit on traditional garage doors, as they would need to span the panels, compromising the door&rsquo;s stability.</p></div>

Q: Are glass garage doors safe?

• <div><p>Although the cost of glass garage doors is a concern, a bigger concern is safety against high-wind storms and burglars breaking the glass. If you use tempered or impact glass on your garage door, it&rsquo;s more shatter-resistant than standard glass. This is safer in a storm where you don&rsquo;t want shards of glass flying around. However, if a burglar wants to access your garage, the glass door is easier to break into than a solid wood or metal garage door. </p></div>

Q: What is the best material for garage cabinets?

• <div><p>Garage cabinets are different from interior cabinets because they typically hold heavier tools and face more extreme temperature changes since they&rsquo;re outside your heating and cooling system. For that reason, many homeowners opt for heavy-duty cabinet materials, like metal or steel. However, wood cabinets also work well in a garage for storing lighter items like garden supplies, protective gear, and small tools.</p></div>

Q: Why do my garage door cables keep coming off?

• <div><p>There are several reasons garage door cables can come off multiple times. The most common reason is that the springs have too much or too little tension and require adjusting. Other causes include track alignment issues that keep the door from operating correctly or smoothly. A damaged winding drum or obstructions in the cable's way can also cause it to come loose. </p></div>

Chris and his crew did a great job, however, within 6 months the end of the garage started to disintegrate and crumble. I called Chris, sent pictures and he said he would fix it. That was 7 months ago and he no longer takes my calls or calls me back. It is sad when a contractor does not honor...
