Q: Can garage doors work with one spring?

• <div><p>With the exception of small, lightweight torsion-spring garage doors, which can operate with one spring, most garage doors require two springs to work properly. Garage doors with extension springs always require two springs&mdash;if one extension spring is broken or otherwise failing, the garage door may open unevenly and could pose a hazard if the remaining spring fails.</p></div>

Q: How do different aspects of a garage influence installation expenses?

• <div><p>Costs depend on the size of the garage, material quality, and additional features like lighting or workbenches.</p></div>

Q: What's the difference between a garage and a carport?

• <div><p>Garages are often equipped with lighting, electrical boxes, and sometimes even heating and cooling, while carports rarely have utilities. A garage is an enclosed structure that can lock and usually has an automatic door. A carport is often wood or plastic and is designed only to protect a car from elements like rain, snow, and hail. Carports are commonly seen on property where an attached garage is unfeasible but can be a cost-effective solution for car protection for anyone without a completed garage. </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: Can my detached garage be covered by my homeowners' insurance?

• <div><p>Your homeowners' insurance should automatically cover your detached garage. This coverage often falls under a &ldquo;separate structure&rdquo; policy. Keep in mind that there may be exceptions to this general rule. Every insurance policy has its own rules and coverage, so contact your homeowners' insurance to ensure you&rsquo;re covered&mdash;and to know how much coverage your policy offers.</p></div>

I hired Greg to install two garage doors with openers for me. The work was done on time and on budget. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I plan on using him again for some projects in the near future.

Very pleased! Polite and professional. Came out same day we called. Re-keyed several doors for us, adjusted a door where the latch wasn't catching properly, and drilled holes for us to add a deadbolt to a door. Fair prices. Highly recommend.
