When one door closes another one opens........ Ken, you make it look so easy! Great work and it looks like you're feeling a lot better. Its a win-win.

Thanks Ken for the step by step installation of a garage door! You are very good at this. It was a pleasure to watch. I can imagine that putting the tension on that big torsion spring is the scariest part.

Ken, Thank you for a great video. Your attention to detail and methodology were very helpful. My biggest question before watching this was the installation of the rails. Great explanation. Thanks again!

When in my twenties as a senior foreman I operated an excavator, along with other heavy equipment, and ran several crews installing water, sanitary sewer and storm pipe. I finally got to go back to college at night in pursuit of an engineering degree, after which I surveyed, designed, permitted and did oversight of projects. Retired now and enjoy watching your construction.

Glad you are feeling better and able to work.

Thank you for doing a detailed, step-by-step how to! Would love to see more detailed explanations of other components of the build as well.

I'm in the process of replacing my wooden swing doors on the shed with a 5x6 garage door so this video came at a perfect time. Thanks

What a blessing to have such a good road crew near your job site 👍👍

Ken great tutorial on installing garage doors. Thank you for sharing. Love your channel...

We had new garage doors a couple of years ago, your step by step was great! Now I know. accept we electric doors. Thanks again for an interesting video!

It's the best one I have seen, I like this method best, others have you put the door together without the track. then put each wheel in separately.

You doing great job. Thank you so much.

I just fixed my garage door , I had a chunk of steel near the track when I shut it .the top bracket ripped out of the top panel 😅. Thank you for the video Glad to c your doing better .

You want to gap the spring so the coils don't rub on each other. At the end of winding the spring, take the rod in your free hand and smack the rod still stuck in the spring to lengthen the spring a bit. Then tighten the spring to the axle. Having a slight downward angle on the door track helps pull the door into the garage. Now that you have done many doors, portions of the instructions that didn't make sense at first will now, it did for me. I watched this video not to criticize but maybe to learn something and I enjoy your videos. LoL 👍

Thanks Ken for another terrific video. I'm about to build a garage so this tutorial is perfect. I appreciate that you don't edit out your occasional "oops" moments too, takes humility. You are one of the main "go to" YT channels for garages and construction in general. 👍

Nice job. Very well explained step by step. I would like to see the one with the electric motor opener 😊

Thanks Ken, make it look easy. Looking forward to doing mine, saving some dough and spending time with my helping son

I am thinking of getting one of those Dewalt band saws to cut conduit. You make hanging garage doors look easy!

Great video. I appreciate it very much!

Great video 💯 well said and done

Great job on the garage door Ken hope things are better with your stomach ❤😊

Thanks for the video

For me watching when the garage door’s go on it’s spelling the near end of the build. Thumbs up 👍

Well done!

Stock insruction pamphlet says to stack doors in opening and hold them in place with nails bent over(Huh?) and then install verticall tracks. You install the tracks first and that seems the safest way to do it so why do they suggest otherwise? Just curious. You remind me of an older builder I worked with years ago. Great guy, soft spoken, very organized, and a depth of experience that only comes from a liftime in the trades. Very helpful video, I'm hanging two doors just like these and I've done a few but needed a refresher course.Thanks!

Great video

Why two handles on the outside? Looks weird, strange to see two handles. None on the inside? Glad you’re feeling better Ken.

@24:45 You mentioned removing the door locks if an automatic door opener is installed. Another option is to put a bolt in the hole in the handle @25:36 to keep the handle from locking the door. Then the locks would still be available if the automatic door opener was removed.

Great video💯

My father once said to me, "Be careful turning those torsion springs, you could hurt yourself." . . . I replied, "Many fellows are killed every year turning those springs." He was an Industrial Mechanic for many years. . . . and then he taught the course becoming a Department Head. I enjoy watching Ken at work. It is a learning experience to watch a professional. Thanks Ken. It is good to see you back enjoying your work. I was thinking that the crew working out front might forget you one night. You might have to pack a sleeping bag and sleep in your truck. 😊

Ken, this was the first video I saw of yours. I needed to figure out if people install the top tracks and make them level. So far, everyone I talked to mentioned that it didn't matter if the top tracks were level and that having them at an incline (leaning down towards the end facing the building's interior) wouldn't hurt anything. Well, it was hurting my logic thoughts about it... hahah... and I saw you make it level/equal in height from front to back. Although my needs in learning this were more for an electric garage door job gone bad fix.... I appreciate what I've learned by watching your video. Thank you and I wish you the best!!!! I like your style... and keep up the great work!!!!

Thanks, nice job.

Great video, thank u sir!!

Amazing video! Please don’t take it down before I do mine. lol. Appreciate your hard work sir!!

Smiling! Now if I could only keep my wife from backing into them. Big Smile!

Do you ever have to measure the side mounting

When you framed those garage door openings, what is the RO? We’re building a 24x32 garage for myself. The pros are doing the slab foundation and iam doing the rest with help

WOW THIS IS COOL Garage door installing two side by side ' do you install for others too? i need to install like this at my garage door

Good video Ken. I didn’t know you were a silent actor as well. 😊

Will be installing an 8x7 on my garage and a 6x5 on my shed in the Spring and will be referring to this video when I do. The shed door is made my a Chinese company (XuFeng) and apparently has a poor instruction manual. Reviews say the door and hardware are good though.

Great job when I forget something I call it a senior moment Lol

In the process of installing a new door as we speak. (Double doors). I had to come inside because i'm a bit intimidated by removing the rails and installing new ones. Your video was the only one I could find where someone was actually installing the side and horizontal rails. Well i'm off. Wish me luck. :)

Someone buy this man some magnetic bits!

Need one on my shop watch to learn

There’s new tourshon springs that you just use a drill on the side very easy to do

Really not surprised that g-door price has increased but am shocked at the amount. About four years ago, II was finishing my remodel of my 100+-year-old bldg and removed old wooden slide-by doors with one 7x9. Price including 6% tax was $391.02 in June 2019.

Is that door already painted of just primed? Nice clean install. Thanks for sharing

1040 for me there in Latvia is too much, but whoo knows, maybe some day i will install them tooo.

Hay Ken welcome back

Ken, can you leave some info on the door manufacturer and where I could purchase one? Thanks

What size lag screws to attach brackets to wood ? Thanks !

Can you do a video of the opener installation step by step

Are those are heavy to carry my one person? How about the double garage door are they heavy to carry by one person to fit them in order?

As a former door hanger we always stacked door with top first on the saw horses with bottom section on top of two stacks on saw horses with bottom of door at your waste. Put hardware on back 2 sections that would be last to go in opening. Add hinges to section turn with section and stack them up screw sections together as we stack in opening. Bottom section we would level if needed to start stack then door cables would be set for hubs or springs. I would put mark over door where spring plate goes ( do not remember that measurement been 30 years ago ) leave ladder in place then put bar with springs, plates and hubs all together on horses looking at door walk up ladder with impact gun on top of ladder. You can take a white marker and make a line across the spring and as you wind up spring you will have a count that will come up from the line you made on spring. Top hinge was up side down. Hope this will help others people. You did a great job thank you for your time.

Love how you said they are packaged correctly and the first panel has two dents 😂

John, I have a unique situation, I know everyone’s is unique. But really this one is. The front of my garage sticks out 2 feet from the house. On top of that inside the garage there is a support from the house that goes through the garage that will not allow the door lifting chain rail puller to go all the way to the front above the door. Any ideas. Would like to try and do this myself. I believe would need a bar about 2 feet long from the door to the motor drive chain rail. Any ideas?

who should i buy a 16 x 7 kit from without opener.

Good day Ken. With all the doors you have fitted, I would imagine that you could just about do it in your sleep and without directions. Only question I have is how do you unlock the door from the outside with the internal lock activated?

Ken unser bester Arbeiter und tolle Mitarbeiter, kannst darauf stolz sein 👏🏻😁😊👍🤗😅🇩🇪🙋‍♂️🙂

Hey Ken, my garage doors use the extension springs, one on either side of each door. Have you ever installed this kind of door? My doors do not seem to roll very smoothly.

Hello, thanks for the great video you uploaded. I have one question for you or anyone who knows where I can buy this garage door. I live in Los Angeles area. Thanks in advance

I have only installed one garage door, twice. I followed the instructions and put the window panel in third. I am 6 foot 3. You don't have to follow the instructions every time.

It's a bummer to have to get out of the car and go through the front door of the house and enter the garage and open it from the inside. How much is the cheapest automatic garage opener motor?

installed mine just like yours. My cables end up at a severe angle when the door is fully opened and make a creaking sound. Doesn't seem to be a huge problem, but I was wondering if I had installed something wrong. Worried that the cables might rub and wear out over time.

Stack panels first and then do the railing… much easier

"A1andA2" was Lawrence Welks' licence plate lol

Does it get any rubber seals to keep mice out

What's the object of 2 handles?

🇨🇦

Watching a fella on KZfaq,,,he assembled door first put it in place. Then installed track to it. I had my doubts. Opps think he's on to something. Went smooth, or he edited out the wtf moments lol.

Clopay classic 9x8 is $1600 at my local Home Depot. You sure pay for that extra foot!

A word of advice, listen to me or not, stop kneeling on the concrete, down the road you will be looking at knee replacement. I have two of them because of my stupidity. You are always stressing safety, listen to yourself and wear knee pads.

Real hammer drill LOL

I hear em. Don’t trip

😅😅😅😅

Just paid 1800 no glass not installed

Per......fect,looking good 👍💜🪻
