Historic Building Restoration Using PowerLift Walls

This historic 300’ long brick building in New York has been repurposed as a Farmer’s Market.

Each wall section has a walk in door for easy vendor access. Clear siding was chosen for maximum natural lighting. Whether you have a classic building or are considering new construction PowerLift has the precise solution you are looking for

Stone and Stucco Match

The appearance of this stone and stucco personal hobby building closely matches the owner’s nearby home. Raised panel stucco cladding was chosen as a contrasting style element for the PowerLift door. Your PowerLift door or wall removes all limitations on material selection for siding and trim. With PowerLift you are free to accentuate, minimize, contrast or harmonize your door and your building in any way you desire.

5 Doors Finished With Horizontal Siding

The design lines of horizontal siding, whether Hardi Plank, steel, vinyl or wood create an attractive appearance around any building. Ordinary doors mar this continuity, so the owners of this beautiful garage decided to install five PowerLift doors. Horizontal siding is easily installed on a PowerLift door or wall. We can make sure the substructure of your PowerLift door is aligned with necessary fastening points so your siding flows in an unbroken line.

Opening Wall in Guest House

This monitor style ‘barn’ is really a guest house located near the principal residence on a riverside estate. A PowerLift door, clad in honey-colored wood to match the building trim, opens from the gathering room of the guest house. PowerLift doors and movable walls have a design that combines style and function in a unique manner. The ability to select any type of cladding, any window size or style and any trim material or color makes an attractive focal point of any wall or door opening in your home.

Opening Glass Walls in Great Room

The owners of this lakefront home wanted to savor the lovely views from their great room while being able to enjoy the great outdoors at a moment’s notice. In consultation with PowerLift they decided to install two glass movable walls overlooking the deck and lake.

PowerLift can create indoor/outdoor rooms anywhere in your home that are fully secure and weatherproof.

Double Opening Walls

The owner of this events center wanted two opening walls on the second floor where the dining area and ballroom are located. To retain the visual integrity of the structure these walls had to match the building exterior perfectly when closed. The results showcase the adaptability and versatility PowerLift brings to the table for every project. Designing walls and doors with multiple windows, unusual styling features and special claddings for your next project is all in a day’s work for us.

Wood garage door

This new stone structure draws on many old-fashioned styling cues to create the aura of a well-maintained building that has stood in place for generations. These old school elements include knotty wood siding on the 20’ x 14’ PowerLift door, small pane windows, crossbucks and forged iron hardware on the door, uneven stone finish, hip roof and stepped fascia. We would enjoy helping you create an instant heirloom building and door on your property – just contact us.

Horse barn door wood

The styling cues and finishes on this new shop hark back to those found on barns constructed well over a century ago. The exterior siding of barn wood and reclaimed galvanized steel are key design elements. The owner wanted his doors to match this siding so he selected PowerLift to build all five. Choosing a PowerLift door removes limitations on cladding and trim selection. You can achieve the look of any period from colonial to contemporary by a judicious selection of siding, windows, trim and accessories.
