When we bought this place thirty plus years ago this had a long track for two doors, one was missing and the other demolished along with the back wall. One day one of my buddies from work stopped in on his way to the landfill with that overhead door, bottom panel was loose in every joint. Think it was a 9ft door for about an eight and a half foot opening in the cement. I plated the bottom section on both sides, chiseled the cement out and cut and rewelded some track brkts and still couldn't come close getting the lower section in so took my plates off and sawed the ends off in a vee.
That old door worked perfectly until this spring, it wants to drop on it's own like the springs are weak. Springs are on each side. I was about thirty five years younger when I cobbled that up and am looking for a way to cheat.
Don't they make some kind of clamp to shorten a cable, think I might of seen it on parking brake cables years ago.
I didn't even know this building had a cement floor for months.
