How to Use a Garage Door as a Movie Screen
Want to host an outdoor movie night this summer? Showing a movie under the stars is a great family activity or main-event for a kids’ slumber party.
Kits for an outdoor cinema, including an inflatable screen, are pricey. Since an al fresco flick may be a once a year event, why break the bank. You can have just as much fun going low budget. A garage door makes an excellent impromptu movie screen. You can piece together everything else you need for not much money.
Summer Maintenance for Your Garage Door

How Big Is a Garage Door?
Garage doors are built to standard dimensions. Choose a garage door based on the size of your garage and vehicles. You’ll find doors that are right for one car, multiple cars and recreational vehicles.
How to Install a Garage-Door Seal
Installing a garage-door seal is a big job. It requires know-how and attention to detail. Having a good garage-door seal keeps warm or cold air from flowing freely into the garage. Rodents and dirt have free range when a garage-door seal is broken.
If a garage is attached to the house, a well-insulated and sealed door will keep your home’s temperature more consistent. A seal can protect against minor encroachments of moisture, but even the strongest seal won’t prevent against a serious water problem.
