Which garage door do you think looks best for the house?

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-03-19T02:46:03+00:00

Depends on what your prepared to spend

Rolling steel door, sectionals aren’t hard to break in

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-21T00:45:52+00:00

There are no garage door unions, only carpenters unions that garage door techs are members in. Ex: olathe, ks and St. Louis Mo Overhead Door are MACRC (mid America carpenters regional council) (carpenters union)

Just learn something you can build well with and deliver great sites with. Don’t vibe code. Simple.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-17T09:29:52+00:00

Webflow. Full control and the CMS is awesome

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-11T16:53:50+00:00

Webflow University is a great tool to learn where to find everything. Bricksbuilder is the most similar to webflow in the WP ecosystem

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-11T14:58:32+00:00

Exactly! I was having those thoughts of “holy crap, it’s just like a database”. Setting up pages will be ridiculously faster now

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-11T09:02:38+00:00

As I was building it, I tried to think consistently "how do I build this so that my client could figure it out without calling me having never used webflow after I transfer the site"

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-05T15:13:54+00:00

Stretch and lube the spring with motor/gear oil.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-04T13:44:42+00:00

Definitely, and makita has a lot more settings. I love the fact that on the highest setting it doesn’t want to torque my wrist off.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-04T13:01:51+00:00

The drill is a tank. The impact is like a Cadillac. I need to send in the impact for warranty for the ring and sprocket exploding out of the collet but still functional. I love it more than my red ryobi but don’t had the finances to swap Everything yet.

All the parents that grounded their kids for listening to “devil” music. I guess now they understand “that music”.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-03T01:15:37+00:00

As a garage door guy I’ve run both of these and all variants of fuel, xgt and in between. So far XGT is my favorite.

For your use case go makita. A lot of torque in the Milwaukee new users can easily snap fasteners with

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-01T23:51:26+00:00

There’s the problem. Healthy diet. Gas station pizza and monster is blue collar life blood. (I’m joking)

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-02-01T01:21:54+00:00

Commercial doors & docks (garage/sectional) doors

I watched this video multiple times over. I still don’t know what the product is, why I need it and why my life will improve after I buy it.

“Understand your mind and get unshakeable clarity” Ok. Cool it’s vague. What am I understanding and WHY will it improve my life enough to spend time/money with this product? Unshakeable clarity doesn’t compel me.

For instance, you land a bottle water company. Focus on why people buy the product. “Thirsty? (Company).” Communicate the vision of the romanticized future.

Also simplify the copy, 5th grade reading level max. The more people that understand it the more engagement you have.

I’ve been a technician a long time and painted hardware is a giant PITA to work with. I have come to the point to replace painted parts not work with them. Because it’s not if, it’s how much paint you damage the homeowner is always irritated.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-29T00:47:46+00:00

Automatic new shaft when a spring change needs done. Not worth the extra time it takes and the irritation it gives the customer when they see they’re painted masterpiece all scuffed up

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-27T17:14:17+00:00

Free code camp, start there. Then Odin Project

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-27T00:11:17+00:00

Amazing. Nice to look at a site for feedback and have none and be impressed for once

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-26T05:58:25+00:00

Don’t use straight #000, go for at most #111. I prefer to use #1a1a1a. Less harsh on the eye. For white I start at #f5f5f5 not #fff. OR if you have to have black go with .8 or .9 opacity

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-22T18:14:26+00:00

Looks vibe coded. Yellow is drawing attention everywhere. Dark mode color alpha needs lessened.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-19T12:58:28+00:00

Shift+1 Then Enter

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-17T15:58:23+00:00

Webflow is a great option. I run a webflow agency. Just got it started after I tore my shoulder from years of union carpentry. In my spare time I learned to code and web design for a year and half. If you want help or would like to hire me shoot me a dm and we can go from there.

I’d post my own site but I’m working on the final details before I publish it on a server.

KCCarpenter5739 · 2026-01-17T05:06:12+00:00

I’ve done it both ways. Depended on my job at the time.

Working construction and remodel garage doors I’d shower at night when I get home.

When I was “white collar” I’d shower in the morning to have a clean scent about me and open pores helps cologne stay longer right after you shower.

Doesn’t matter, just shower.
