Q: Are there downsides to garage screens?

• <div><p>While the benefits of garage door screens usually outweigh the downsides, there are some cons to installing one. First off, they can be quite expensive, especially if you&rsquo;re having a professional install a retracting screen or a custom size screen. Second, they let fresh air and natural light in, but they also don&rsquo;t provide the same privacy from people in the neighborhood that a solid door does. As you might guess, screens also won&rsquo;t <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-insulate-a-garage.htm">insulate your garage</a>, so they&rsquo;re often not usable in colder weather.</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: Are garage door springs dangerous?

• <div><p>Since garage door torsion springs have tightly wound coils under massive tension, they can cause serious injury while attempting to service them. A broken spring can also cause the garage to close rapidly, causing injuries. That&rsquo;s why any adjustments or replacements of a torsion spring should only be conducted by a trained professional.</p><p>Extension springs are just as dangerous as torsion springs&mdash;especially when they break. These springs can become projectiles and may cause serious injury or property damage.</p></div>

Q: How long does garage door insulation last?

• <div><p>Garage door <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-a-house-last.htm">insulation can last</a> anywhere from 20 to 100 years depending on the type of insulation. Cellulose has the shortest lifespan coming in at between 20 and 30 years, while spray foam, mineral wool, and fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years with proper maintenance. </p><p>Humidity plays a role in how long more susceptible insulation materials&mdash;like fiberglass&mdash;last. Once fiberglass batts reach the 15-year mark, you'll need to routinely inspect your insulation to ensure that it is in mint order.</p></div>

Q: Where can I buy affordable garage floors?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll find many of the options we listed at big-box home improvement retailers and department stores, as well as smaller independent floor specialists in your area. Many of these stores offer full-service installation of the products they sell, and others may offer to refer you to a trusted partner for installation.</p><p>You can also shop for these products online. We recommend shopping around to compare prices, service offerings, and reviews from previous customers to help make a more informed final decision.</p></div>
