High Lift Garage Doors

So it started as one door conversion to accommodate a car lift... then decided to replace all three doors and convert all to high lift with side mount WiFi openers... couldn’t be happier... opens the whole room up... highly recommended and WiFi openers are something you don’t realize you can’t live without.

That's one high *** ceiling in a garage! You live in a barn style house or something? It's like a grain or salt silo. Crazy you can stack up like 4 cars...

Right? Yeah, the rest of the same models in the neighborhood are 1-2 cinder blocks lower...

the downside is, in the pic, I’m standing on the landing required with my five steps up to the door, so I lose the first garage bay to any cars.

if you replace doors, they come with all new tracks anyway, so conversion to a high lift ends up being just a few hundred more per door... but visually much better without all the hardware hanging down.

Extend the platform and have the stairs come down between the 2 bays.
