Need a lift?

You can pop the legs off and adjust the height. Perfect for stacking the Hot Wheels...

10' to the drywall, 9'6" to the laminated support beam. Plenty of room for roadsters and my 50" tall Zed cars...

Nice. Not having typical garage door opener with chain drive gives you the extra headroom.

That was part of my design setup... I searched for a decent roll-up door to maximize overhead room as I know it would be close.

Went with these: Trac Rite Model 944
