This question is about "prepping" for my new X (ordered June - EDD still January)...
I want to keep my X in my garage. I have a 2nd detached garage that we never used for any vehicles (we have multiple bikes, a snowblower, tractor...). After I ordered my X have been making its new home ready. I recently installed a ceiling lift for the 5 bikes to make more room. This works great and they are out of the way.
My concern is that my garage door side rails/tracks and center chain rail are all standard height. With my garage, there is about 3 to 4 feet between the track height and the ceiling (the ceiling is high). Has anyone kept an X in the garage with a "normal" height garage door? Do the falcon doors open when the garage door is closed? If yes, do they come close to hitting the garage door rails/tracks?
This weekend I am having my garage door tracks lifted up to the ceiling (which removes the center track and moves the actual opener mechanism to the side of the garage door). When I called several garage door companies and described what I wanted they all asked if I was installing a vehicle lift - since that is what this application is for.
Thanks in advance for any perspective/POVs - I am just curious how others have dealt with this issue.
