Garage has Phenix doors, smooth on both sides, foam filled. I'd like to put a small window in one of the panels, maybe 12 x 6 inches. I'm thinking a metal one that slides in from the outside then another piece on the inside holds it in place. I know I've seen something like that but can't place where it was, maybe a freezer door? Any ideas, wouldn't have to be anything fancy? Yesterday an older lady goes past my garage, I could see her out my north window, she stops at the dead end then backs up a little and starts turning... damn, turning around in my yard and make more holes. :mad: Nope, turns too soon and bang into the new power pole they'd just put in, she actually had the wires swaying. :eek: Loved to have a small window to see the back bumper on her new car. Don't people know how to back up anymore? :confused: Thanks

Hello, Next Spring I will be building a garage / shop. About 1200 sq ft with attic trusses for storage. I had intended to use stick frame construction until I got a rough estimate of $65K. We have a National Barn franchise/center in my county who regularly offer something like this size for about $20K. I went by a friends to look at one. It was like a barn inside, but definitely usable. A few considerations for my situation is my detached garage cannot be metal sided. I would need some other siding. Also, I had intended on a drywall finished walls for my shop. I simply cannot spend $65K now on this project. I could spend $20K and upgrade as money permits. Can someone offer their experiences?
