And, finally, a door!
I have blogged about Crestview Doors in the past, when we ordered the kit for the front door. Sam installed them in the flush steel door and they really look great. Huge improvement! It was exactly want I wanted... but couldn't find at a reasonable cost. This custom kit was the perfect option.
Here's what it looks like from the inside:
We still want to paint the door (inside and outside) and get a new door handle.

The deck has been finished for a few weeks but I haven't posted any pictures yet.

ReplyDeletei like it all! especially Sam
Wow. Looks great! I am still dreaming of a roof deck for my house.
ReplyDeleteI meant to ask before...what did you do for a garage door for your garage? I am looking for one for mine. Did you install it yourself?
Hey Matt! We don't have any door on the garage yet. It's not large enough to have the car in and close a door. We are considering some sort of door that we can close when the car is out of the garage just in case we ever need to use the space for something else. No ideas yet, though :)
ReplyDeleteSam and Lori, thanks for the reponse. I have an even more complicated issue with mine I guess. My garage is a large building seperate from the house...say 27' deep x 27' wide...with the property line going down the middle of it...
ReplyDeleteMy neighbor does not park in their side and while it is plenty deep for my car + 1 mini cooper, the current 'door', and I use that term losely, is like a giant bifold closet door. Not condusive to parking and it is flush on the 11' wide alley so I need to do some construction to even get it ready for a rollup style door. Ahh city buildings!

These "home improvement electrical" systems are very cheap to build and install, will also save you a lot of money in electricity bills from your provider. Verona flat roof installation
ReplyDeleteHome improvement projects regularly scare people off, because many judge that they will pay thousands of dollars to alter one room, because they do not have the skills to do the job them self. They may also feel that the job is costly because supplies and tools are needed. the gutter gobbler
ReplyDeleteHomeowners have a lot of questions and doubts about metal roofing systems. This artisan couvreur Chantilly system has been traditionally used by businesses and commercial buildings. Rarely used for residences, the metal sheets were mainly used for covering the sheds and barn in rural households. But, recently we have found a gradual rise in the use of metal roofs. The reason is simple. Aesthetics of metal roofs have improved vastly with the arrival of beautiful shingles in different shades, textures and colors.
ReplyDeleteDuring difficult times of economic slowdown and falling home prices, each and every penny spent on home improvement should be well planned and thought out. It might not be the best idea to over invest on home renovation and improvement given that the return on this investment is not going to be commensurate with the value of the investment that you make towards home improvement. Data suggests that the average return on home improvement has been showing a declining trend. sliding glass doors
