Did you fix your garage using this method? What'd you think? Let us know!

@scottstilgenbauer7547 3 месяца назад

Thanks for the tip worked great fixing my sagging door.

@RuslanVideoFilms 3 месяца назад

Anytime, thanks for tuning in 💪

Quick bandaid fix for DIY Panels are still sagging lol This will last for a little bit but when the panels continue to weaken from cracks you’ll be in the same spot. Putting on a real garage door strut bar across the full length of the door would fix this. And you only need one. Install it on the top of each panel connected to the hinge

@RuslanVideoFilms 9 месяцев назад

Thanks for the heads up. can you share a link for the full length strut? -(asking for a friend?)😛

@l337pwnage 13 дней назад

@@RuslanVideoFilms lol, I wish could post links. 😉 If you search "garage door strut" on your favorite internet search engine, they will pop up. The difficulty is the length makes them too expensive to ship. If you are lucky, a local home improvement store will stock them in the garage door area, or a friendly garage door service company _may_ sell you one(they'd rather sell a new door, tho). Enterprising online stores do sell multi-piece kits which do work, but are heavier and may not be as strong.

@robertevans5587 3 месяца назад

Thanks for sharing! I have the same problem in the same spot on my door. Going to get the brackets today.

@RuslanVideoFilms 3 месяца назад

Hello can you send me a link for the cross bar? Im having the same problem and I dont know which one to buy. Thank you in Advance!

@RuslanVideoFilms 11 месяцев назад

www.homedepot.com/p/Everbilt-1-1-2-in-x-96-in-Aluminum-Angle-with-1-16-in-Thick-802597/204273989 ^ Can play around with the thickness!

@azgunnerz Год назад

I often hear about weight issues being added when installing the crossbars, and the spring playing a factor in possibly being replaced to compensate for the weight - did you have to adjust the spring tension or find anything wrong with keeping the same spring installed?

@RuslanVideoFilms Год назад

these bars don’t make a tangible weight difference because they are so light and the door is so heavy relative to them

@azgunnerz Год назад

Thank you - stopped by my ace hardware to pick up the angle bar ($30), and took 20 minutes

5:47 not to be a safety sally, but I'd worry about eye protection more than hearing protection.

@RuslanVideoFilms 12 дней назад

Thanks for calling that out! Safety first!

@cryhavoc38 11 месяцев назад

one shouldn't use punch angle strips to fix a sagging garage door. Use the proper kit that spans the entire length of the garage door. The punch angle L brackets like the owner in this video used above will wear out and bend. search "Heavy Duty Garage Door Support Reinforcement Strut Kit" and you will see the proper u shaped strut support to fix sagging door panels.

@RuslanVideoFilms 10 месяцев назад

This fix has been successfully working on grandma’s garage door for the better part of two years. If the metal is thick enough it will wear out long after the rest of the garage door. At a fraction of the cost of a kit

@l337pwnage 12 дней назад

@@RuslanVideoFilms I dunno about that. I just checked the local chain store and it still listed 16' struts for $20. I'm sure they are more than that online, tho. Well, you can't get them online, but the multi piece kits you can get I'm sure are more.

@murd777 10 месяцев назад

You're putting too much pressure to the Opener by letting the door open way too far. that's why you damaged the door.

@RuslanVideoFilms 10 месяцев назад

That is a very helpful insight, thank you. I’m going to look into whether the height is something one can regulate.

@yubobarry 5 месяцев назад

@murd777, isn't the door supposed to be fully opened? What do you mean "put too much pressure" and "open way too far"? My door is always pushed to the full top by the cable. Maybe the spring is too tight?

@choong6581 4 месяца назад

You are full of sh*t! The door sagged because it was made cheaply using thin metal sheets. It has nothing to do with the opener. I am a handyman by profession and fix this problem often using the same angle irons.

@l337pwnage 13 дней назад

@@yubobarry I think he is referring to how far the motor is pulling the door back. Anything once you clear the top of the door opening is pretty pointless, but is not going to damage the door in this way. All these low buck metal doors eventually crack in half. The only fix would be to brace them when new, but then how much more is a better door?
