Whether you’ve got a home away from home on your favourite lake, river, or even on the ocean, you’re a lucky individual to have your own little slice of paradise. Bought new or renovated to match your dream home, your new getaway is only missing one thing: a fresh new boathouse with a stylish marine door to keep your prized boat safe from the elements.

Folks have been spending far more time at home than they did before the rise of the pandemic. Because we’re at home so much, it means that maybe we’re getting sick of seeing the same thing day after day. It might be time to rethink the home exterior and get a fresh new look.

With winter getting closer and closer, you need to be sure that you are ready to handle the cold weather.

So many people go to invest in a new garage door and just think “I’ll get a standard size door for my new space.” The problem with that is many-fold, but the biggest issue? There’s no such thing.

Power outages are commonplace today. It could be a summer thunderstorm, a limited brownout, rolling blackouts, or even the effect of a tornado or hurricane. When the power’s out, life feels like it comes to a standstill – no TV, no radio, no Internet except on battery-powered, wireless devices. It’s inconvenient, to say the least. It also has consequences that go far beyond mere boredom. For instance, if the power’s out, you’ll find it challenging to get your car out of the garage if you need to go to the store or experience an emergency.

If you’re thinking about replacing your garage door you’re likely aware that it’s not a purchase you’re going to make every three years, not even every ten years… A garage door is a significant investment, and a quality garage door with quality installation and regular maintenance should last upwards of 25 years.

If you suffer through a lengthy commute that drains your energy while eating into your spare time and money, you need to rethink the way you work. Office workers have more flexibility than ever due to the ability to telecommute over the internet instead of through traffic jams. Arguments over whether its better to work from home compared to your garage office tend to worry about productivity from the perspective of companies and business owners, who constantly seek to reduce costs. Instead, focus on the reasons why working from your garage office is better for your work-life balance.

Winter is a difficult season in the North, the wear and tear on our cars, homes and even ourselves can be costly. The best way to lessen the effects of the harsh weather is to be prepared. We can buy winter tires for our cars, we buy warmer clothes for ourselve, sturdy boots, salt for the roads and so on, but do you know how to prepare your garage door? A garage door has moving parts that are affected by the cold, and the finishes of the various types of garage doors can be damaged by the wet snow, the freezing temperatures and the expanding and contracting that is caused by the quick temperature changes that will occur.
