Garage Doors

Spring breaks are supposed to be fun -- not a terrifying, abrupt noise that sounds almost like a gunshot coming from your own garage.

Are you loving the ALL-GLASS garage door trend? Have you been eyeing them on your favorite shows, patios, or Instagram posts?

We’ve all heard it said that “clothes make the man” (or woman), but it is a concept that applies to lots of other things. Take garage doors, for example.

Whether you’ve been offering a service or product for weeks, months, or years, it’s likely that your customers sometimes come to your place of services to look at the items you have for sale or to inquire about replacement parts. That means you need to have a commercial garage door which you can be proud of, especially if it’s front and center. This facet of your business should show you off in a way that makes customers want to do business with you.

Your first instinct may be to call the police, but that won’t solve the problem. Your second instinct might be to call a professional cleaning company, but don’t throw money at it just yet. Try to remove the graffiti yourself before incurring what could be a sizable expense.

Generally speaking, most people think of garage door windows across the middle or upper-middle of the door. While this has been a fairly standard design for years, modern garage doors offer a lot of more unique solutions.

Spring break is often a phrase used to describe a period of intense fun. But not all spring breaks are fun. The one we are talking talking about most likely produces a sudden loud noise. A noise that resembles a gunshot. That sound will come from your garage. After your heart stops pounding and you get the courage to look around, you may not find evidence of the source of the sound. The truth will come out though—the next time you try to operate your garage door. You will hear an irregular noise and realize that things just don't seem to be working right. When you look up, you'll notice that the lifting spring has been severed into two pieces.

In the United States, there is a residential burglary once every 18 seconds. In Canada, there is one every 90 seconds. In many cases, these home burglaries happen during the day. It might be surprising but it’s true.

Adding a little extra flair to your home’s front entrance is not only easy, but also a low-cost way to spruce things up a bit without breaking the bank.
