Doors

Gable-end track door (or “slider”):

More economical than an eave door;

• Ceiling and door clearance the same;
• Can be built to half the width of the building;

Eave-wall track door:

• May be more expensive than a gable-end door;
• May require larger posts, double posts, and larger pads on each side;
• Requires a beam (either plates of steel I-beam or wood depending on size and span);
• Clearance is reduced by the height of the beam or plates 

Overhead doors:

• 8′ high or under falls under the residential category; over 8′ high a commercial grade door is necessary and has a higher price;
• Require additional headroom (16″ to 24″ depending on size and type);
• Many benefits including potential for remote operation, better weather seal (for workshops)
