Yes, one of the stupid thing I did was replace the garage door after it collapsed. I tried to find someone to rebuild it but couldn’t so ended up giving in to the overhead door sales people. I didn’t make them save the metal windows. Now I wish I could somehow get the original doors replicated.
you can – there are places that make repro garage doors.
I want to have interior shutters made with glass lights, basically in swinging casement windows, though ideally with joints so they will fold up like regular interior shutters. I’ve seen them (without the extra joints) in Europe. Do you have any information which would help me?
can anyone answer this?
Does anyone know someone in eastern Tennessee area who repairs old windows? I have a few that won’t close all the way and if love to save them rather than replace.
I hope you checked my listing before posting this question. If anyone has recommendations for restoration people, please let me know.
