If you work on cars (check) and have a lot of ... junk to store in your garage (check), do think twice about buying a house with single-car garage doors instead of a wider, two-car door. Having only a single car's worth of width makes it really challenging to do any work on the car that requires space to either side.
Our old townhouse had this problem too. Having two of these single-car doors side-by-side doesn't make things substantially easier. That said, the 914 does fit fine once it's through the door...but it's ridiculously tiny. Anything larger is sortof a problem.
P.S. yes, the picture is old.
Oh hells yes. That was a deal-breaker on a house we were looking at in Houston. When I work on my Jeep or other vehicles I mostly park in the driveway, mostly.
A new problem now is not having room to park vehicles at the new house in Houston. One 18 foot trailer, four vehicles, a fourwheeler. tools, and lawn equipment presents new challenges especially living in an area with a Homeowners Association.
Pave the world!
I've got a hammer I can let you borrow that should fix your right up.
We have trees out here. So a chain and a comealong is probably way more effective.
That old thread has the weirdest piece of commentspam? on it.
If the spam has enough goofy text in it, I'll occasionally leave it up but rob it of links.

That's one thing that's nice about the house I found to rent in Eastgate: even though it has two single garage doors, the one on the left has ~5 extra feet of space to the left of the door for working on things. There's also another ~10 feet in front of the cars for storage.
