Having a high tech garage door is not something that may come in handy all that often, but you will be happy to have it when you need to use it. They make some now that have a backup generator within themselves so to speak. This means that if there is a bad storm and the power goes out, this particular type of garage door would still be able to open for you.

How to Change the Look or Operation of Your Garage Parts?
If you are like most homeowners, the only time you notice your garage door is when it starts to take away from the beauty of your home. If your garage door is several years old, you may need to get some new garage door parts, apply a coat of paint or pressure wash the door and update the look of the door. A Quick Face Lift Using Garage Door Parts One of the newest garage door parts to hit the market in the past few years is the garage door cover. Believe it or not, you can actually purchase a cover that goes right over your existing garage door, regardless of the current style or material, to update the look in a very short period of time. The expense is far less than that associated with a new garage door. These garage door parts can be purchased from contractors, online and in some home improvement warehouse stores. A New Handle/Lock Can Change the Look of the Garage Door Older garage doors often have broken locking mechanisms that were never replaced because of the rarity of the parts or the expense of replacing the entire door. It is possible to replace the older cable-style locking/handle system with a new one. If you don’t want to replace the handle, but you would like it to work, you can replace the cables with a metal bar and the lock will begin to work perfectly. Torsion Springs Should be Left Alone or Replaced by a Professional If you believe that your torsion springs need to be replaced in order to refresh the look or operation of your garage door, be aware that the project is very dangerous and a wrong move can easily result in a serious injury.

How do you replace a window in a 16' x 7' Regal Garage door?
Unless you are replacing a 16 foot wide window, you will need to install a header. Your best bet to span that distance is a laminated beam or other engineered lumber, and you will need 3 jack studs supporting it on each side. Since you are making a structural change, you will need to pull a permit and have the work inspected. Temporary bracing will be needed to support the roof while installing the beam. Make sure the rough opening is level and plumb, or you will have trouble with the garage door later on. While I encourage DIY's, this is probably more than a homeowner can comfortably handle, so get a few quotes before hand. Take the molding off from the inside of the door where the window goes, measure the area where the window goes, go to hardware store buy the glass to fit the measurements, put the glass in the door and with small tacks and nail the molding back on,
Garage Door Repair for Basic Problems?
It is not uncommon for people’s garage doors to start acting up. While the average person can’t fix everything that can go wrong with a garage door, basic garage door repair is not that difficult. There are a number of ways that your garage door can malfunction. Here are some common problems, and how to fix them.One of the most common issues is when the garage door starts going up and down on its own, almost as if somebody were continually pressing the open and close button. As a matter of fact, there is a good chance that something very similar to that is the problem. Most likely, somebody else in the neighborhood has a garage door opener that operates on the same frequency. In some cases, they can end up interfering with one another. If this is a problem you are experiencing, the solution is so simple you can barely call it garage door repair. Simply change the code on your garage door. The way in which this is accomplished will vary from garage to garage. In most cases, you will do something to the effect of holding the transmitter near the box while holding down a specific button for an extended period of time. Most garage door openers are set up to automatically set up a new code when you do this.Another common problem is that your garage door goes halfway down and then comes back up when you attempt to close it. If this is happening, it is probably because you have a safety system installed that prevents the door from closing if their is something blocking it. If there is nothing obstructing the door, it is most likely a problem with the sensors. This problem can usually be fixed by cleaning the lenses on the sensors.Finally, the door simply might not open when you use the garage door opener. If this happens, try replacing the battery. Oftentimes this is the only issue. If this does not fix the problem, you might need to buy a new transceiver.If any of the previous methods of garage door repair do not work, you will most likely need to get in touch with the manufacturer to troubleshoot the problem.
