Today we learned that just because something is purchased at a "discount store" doesn't mean it is a bargain.
The garage door and opener on our house that was put in in 2012 has been a POS since the day I put it in. I have adjusted it time and time again, both the springs and the opener. They have never worked right. SO I called the local garage door guy and he came out to look at it. He wanted to replace the springs and cables. He said all of them sold at a store that rhymes with Shenard's are junk and he has replaced 100s of them in the last ten years.
So for $350.00 I have a garage door that will open and close reliably now. He asked what I paid for it and he said he could have put the same door in, with the good springs, for about $300.00 less.
So There is another reason I quit buying form Shenard's.
In 2013, I was this store's single biggest customer, 2014 and 2015, I was number 2 and my dad was number 1 in 2014.
Their quality has gone so far sown the shitter, even the electrical parts, I used to buy there are now some off brand no one has ever heard of.
Just to make ya feel a little better, he didn't lie to ya. they sell the same door as door company's except shit springs and shit hardware for just a little less. didn't stop me from putting one on our Hammond house to get the sale though.
