Leave a comment

As spring and summer slowly approach, this is the time to begin pondering those spring projects you’d like to complete round the home. Now could be the perfect time to begin planning for a variety of reasons. First, because summer is still a couple of months off, early planning permits you to figure out just what you need to do, and where to get the best supplies at the best prices. And second, tax season is just around the corner, meaning tax return money that can be used for getting those supplies bought early.

Reason 1: spring weather. While spring brings hotter temperatures and blooming plants, the weather can still be a bit unpredictable. But after being stuck inside for a quarter or longer, you most likely have cabin fever and need to get out of the house and into the fresh air! So the perfect solution for unbalanced spring weather and cabin fever is to spend some time in the garage, where you are protected from the spring elements but still getting that Vitamin C. Available to fit any size garage opening, retractable garage screens let the air and light in, while keeping the bugs dust out.

Reason 2: Getting the automobiles prepared for summer cruising. For so many people who love cars, the arriving of hotter weather signals that it’s time to get the cars cleaned and prepared to cruise. And whether or not that cruising takes you cross country on Route 66, or merely downtown to show off the old hot rod, it’s nice to be in a position to have a dry, clean place to get your cars prepared. Retractable garage screens let you turn your garage from merely a parking bay, to an airy, open place just perfect for busting out the Armour All and shop vac.

Reason 3: Spring cleaning. A tradition as old as mom’s being bored with the junk that accumulates over the winter, spring cleaning is always right round the corner when the weather heats up. And whether the garage is part of your deep cleaning list, or the area where things are going to be moved to, it needs cleaned out. But who would like to be stuck within anymore than they have to? With retractable garage screens, you can still tackle the years of flotsam that have piled up in the garage, while still feeling the spring sunshine and unpolluted air.

 

So there you have it, the top 3 reasons why adding a retractable garage screen to your garage opening should be at the very top of your spring must-do list. Whether you are compromising with cranky weather patterns, getting your sweet ride prepared for summer trips, or spring cleaning, retractable garage screens are the most effective way to do all three, while still enjoying the warmer temperatures.

And who knows? Perhaps you’ll get a new use for the garage when your new retractable screen gives you the best of both worlds – the outside and the indoors.

Are You Ready For A Lawn Tractor?

Leave a comment

Now that you have moved to the country, you find yourself with new challenges. Not only that, but the job of looking after it’s all yours.

When you currently have three, 4 or perhaps five acres, the walk-behind mower that used to do a fine job on your smaller suburban lot just isn’t going to slash it. In looking for an answer to this challenge, an increasing number of country householders have turned to a tool that lawn upkeep managers have used for years : the highly maneuverable, highly productive zero-turn-radius mower. That’s the reason they’re the single quickest growing gear segment in the outside power appliances industry. Many house owners see the zero-turn as a fast and good way to mow big grasslands. While large commercial models offer plenty of stability on hillsides, smaller home mowers are far more subject to drifting downhill when on an incline. Additionally, the purchase of a zero-turn mower is an investment in a pure cutting machine.

If you would like one machine that offers you the facility to blow snow, do blade work, pull a use cart, or perform a spread of other roles, then a lawn tractor or garden tractor is going to be a miles better option. Thanks to creative design and engineering from John Deere, you do not have to sacrifice the agility and maneuverability of a zero-turn mower for the suppleness and multiple purpose functionality of a lawn tractor. You can find four-wheel steer on a couple of models of Select Series Tractors.

These machines have been designed and built to perform a selection of light- and pro quality roles for consumers who have bigger properties of at least 7 acres with more landscape features and challenging terrain.

These tractors come in a selection of seventeen to twenty-seven hp, both air- and liquid-cooled engines, depending on the model. Other features include a peerless mixture of engine features and an exclusive hood design to offer bigger dragging capacity and longer engine life. Wide-gauge wheels provide improved functionality on coarse ground and a four-point mount is more impervious to abuse and hard terrain.
