I talked to my Clopay rep friend, and apparently our ceiilngs are just fine for this — they’ll design for any surroundings. So this is definitely on our radar! Splatgirl, is that an interior wall in your photo? And Homer, I love your site name. : )

I love it. It’s Jersey Shore made chic. But we knew that long ago! Bring out the clams.

I love how it goes straight up the wall instead of across the ceiling. I think they’re worth designing a remodel around!

One of my great dreams is to live in a climate where service station doors can stand in for sliders. Sadly, Minnesota is not it, so I compromised:

I know what you mean! I don’t know if we have the ceiilngs for it, but I love the idea.

I’ve always wanted to try this. I just never live in the right place for it

You can see the Avante as a garage door in the March issue of California Home & Design. (Note, this link opens a PDF) http://www.jamesphillipwright.com/publications/Calif_Home_and_Design/CHD.pdf
