I built a shed, but not just any shed. To me it was a custom work of art that I spent the better part of the fall imagining and building. As imaginations can do, mine ran a bit wild and extended the timeline of the project's competition.
With winter approaching I would not finish in time to beat the oncoming weather. I needed to seal it up as quickly as possible, but there was a problem. I had created a custom opening for an overhead door without actually having the door in hand. Who could make me a custom door...and quickly. G&F OVERHEAD DOORS COULD!
I talked to Troy Genke about the opening and he was able to recommend a great solution that would get me a door on the shed in plenty of time. He was going to make it for me by cutting down door slabs and assembling the appropriate hardware. Troy had everything I needed in his inventory already! And my custom shed would have a beautiful custom, steel insulated overhead door made from scratch by G&F!
In just a coupe of days I had the door in my hands ready for installation. It looked great even just wrapped and ready for me to take home. I could tell they took care to make sure that everything was protected for travel in my trailer.
Being a hobby builder, I was going to install it myself. After unwrapping and about an hour of realizing I did NOT know everything I needed to know to do the installation correctly, I called Troy and got his son, Grant Genke, who is part of the G&F team of professionals. I could immediately tell Grant was more than capable of guidance. He'd probably been helping out DIY-ers like me since he was in diapers!
Even though I did not pay them to install the door, Grant took the time to walk me through the issues I was having. He chuckled at me while I explained and had simple instructions to follow in order to set things right. His chuckle gave me confidence that i wasn't the only crazy guy out there wasting time trying to save a buck.
After speaking with Grant I was able to successfully complete the installation and I couldn't be happier with it. The door runs smooth and is the polishing touch on my shed. Who cares that the shed is only 11x14! It needed an overhead door for style :) Thank you so much to Troy, Grant and the whole G&F team. But next time I think I'll just have you guys install it for me :)
