Awesome Job!! I might need you to come do my garage if you in Houston
Excellent job!!!
Thank you!
How long did it take?
this is inspirational
Thank you.
Excellent. When can you come change my garage door. ?
Looks awesome.. Just curious though.. Why didn't you run the metal up top in the front.?. You had the two sides installed..
What is it that you r supporting on top that you needed the long 2x4s? And are most one large garage doors standard size? What would tell measurements need to be?
super,x super and well (DONE) you are a Men and you not need nothing for no body,
Great video exactly what I was looking for. Wish there wasn't any music but good job and thank you.
This is defiantly a need here . I am in RI ..Any idea of cost .. Non insulated , windowed ..
how much it cost
I enjoyed it also it seems the new door is taller too😎😎
Where do you work from what state?
Nice, what size is your header?
You forgot final top trim outside
It's in the last pic. I had to bend a new one.
How many day's did this take? What was the cost with door to homeowner? If I might ask? I am having a heck of a time getting this done in Arkansas.
Hi, sorry for the delayed answer. I don't TH-cam much and because of covid-19 I haven't had it monitored as normal.
This job took me about 100 hours. But that's because none of my friends believed I install big garage doors alone. So I did it by myself. If I had my helper, we probably would have been done in 60 Hrs
Pricing;
To many variables. What is the home made of? 2x4 or 2x6 framing with vinyl siding the easiest. Then the size of the LVL. The size of the temperior wall you have to put up. Do you have to cut back cement? Also the size and quality of the garage door and motor. I would guess that just changing to an LVL, siding, coil stock, sheetrock and plaster, would probably be anywhere from $2500-$5000.
@@ctdoorandtrimllc5536 Thank You for the reply! I gave up on this project because in Arkansas the price for this job on a 2x4 framed garage with no upstairs started at 10,000+ Ridiculous! No concrete work etc.
I guess it would be easier if your garage already had the header all the way across the opening huh?
Hi, sorry for the delayed answer. I don't TH-cam much and because of covid-19 I haven't had it monitored as normal.
Much easier, but very unlikely.
What's a estimate cost to do this? I have the same problem because of my truck

how did you go about sizing your beams?
Very sorry for the very delayed response. I don't youtube much.
Being that I know framing and garage doors. I immediately can tell what size garage door I can fit in a opening. I then give my lumber yard all the building information.(Size of garage, type of framing, size of roof rafters, ext) They work with the LVL companies engineer. I then get a print out from the engineer to give to the building inspector.
Where can I find that door at? I want to do the same conversion. I already have the LVL Beam of the header for the doors. I want to have a 9x17 door. Where are you located?

I am a CHI Overhead door dealer. CHI will make almost any size door. 17x9 no problem. Find a CHI dealer near you.
I'm in Waterbury CT.
@@ctdoorandtrimllc5536 thanks so much
@@ctdoorandtrimllc5536 OMG...I'm in Stratford CT. How can we make contact. I need to convert from 2 doors to one.
How much this job cost overall?

Lol, you're not supposed to screw in vinyl siding.
"Use aluminum, galvanized steel, or other corrosion-resistant nails, staples, or screws when installing vinyl siding"

I think is going to sag in time in the middle.
You are absolutely wrong. The beam that is used is called a Microllam, LVL, it is engineered lumber. Many times stronger then conventional lumber. An engineer is giving all the information about the project. Some of which are the span of the opening, structure type with demotions, wall thickness and more. The engineer then calculates what size LVL is needed. As it comes in many widths and lengths.
@@ctdoorandtrimllc5536 Maybe. The issue I have with my garage opening is that it's sagged about 3/4" in the middle. One reason might be the attic above the 2 car garage is used as storage and I think the beam was not designed for that or not a proper beam for the load was put in place. There is also brick on the house facade above garage and a lintel. Not sure how this can be fixed with all the bricks already in place. I really like the storage above the garage where I can put all the crap you don't need all the time
Why, whats the motivation for this? Youre removing the expensive option and installing the cheap option. Ive wanted to do the opposite to both houses ive owned. Single doors would keep my wife parking on her side instead of the middle.
Personal preference, for me I want to convert to one big door so that when I work on one of the cars, I center it in the middle for better access on both sides.
I hate having a beam in the middle of my garage door. where I live (near Seattle) the garage doors are generally narrow and often because of the hills there is a retaining wall very close to one of the doors.
At my current place (about to move) My driveway is very steep, has a retaining wall perpendicular to the side of one door and it’s just a pain to get a small SUV in there (bronco sport).
Unless the single doors were wider and easier to enter, I’d rather not have it split.
I’ll you 7k if you come to this to my small garage in Harrisburg PA 😅
