Making Garage Door Taller

The garage also needs a new floor and a new roof.

Making garage door taller.

We had a few contractors in to give us. It is possible to install larger garage doors to give. I live in northern new jersey. Begin by using a tape measure to determine the width and height of the door opening in inches.

The garage is a total of 24 wide by 24 deep. It has the old style carriage doors. Travel trailer also come in smaller sizes and they may need smaller door. Measuring a residential garage door is more than determining the dimensions of the door but making sure the garage can accommodate a garage door opener and the door in both open and closed positions.

But even with the smaller trailers the dimensions you would need for garage of at least 10 feet width and 10 12 feet height. Double car garage doors typically start at 12 feet wide and move. Standard single car garage door widths start at 8 feet for single car garages and move up in 12 inch increments to 10 feet wide. With this kind of width and height dimension you would need garage of around 12 feet width and 12 feet of height door.

The wife wants to replace the two with one 16 overhead garage door. Because garage doors are usually sized to snugly fit the dimensions of the garage itself making the door larger usually means making the garage larger.
