I currently have a detached garage with two-garage door. I was
wondering what it would take to convert from a two-door system to a
single larger door. Has anyone ever attempted that? Just wonder what
it would entail.


I've done it for clients. What you do is put a 17' door in there instead or a
standard 16'. You'll need to reinforce the header. The easiest way is to lag a
1/2 thick , 17' wide 12' high, steel beam across the existing headers.
