Garage door

A garage door is a large door allowing access to a residential garage, commercial garage, or facility that opens either manually or via a motorized garage door opener. Garage doors are often large enough to accommodate cars and sometimes other vehicles or equipment. The operating mechanism is usually spring-loaded or counterbalanced to offset the door's weight and reduce the effort required to open and close it. Some doors can have no counterbalance mechanism and be fully motor-driven, often in commercial applications.
