Please help!! Need to create a door within the garage door

17 years ago

Hello,

I have a split-entry 70's house. There is no mud room entry and the front entrace to the house is not convenient to enter in the snow season. We are thinking of getting ideas if we can do a door within our garage door , so that guests can enter during winter without bringing in that much cold air.

Please help!!!!

springy regards,

nita

And your garage door is made out of what material? They do make people doors incorporated into garage doors, but I've only seen them in a commercial setting. Auto mechanics, warehouse entrances, etc..
Why not put an entrance door on the side of the garage? Guests are coming through the garage to visit?
The in-laws?
