Speccing a door for Murray
Spec for the winter that is coming: with 85.9 freeze–thaw cycles a year, insulated construction earns its premium on attached garages (rigidity first, R-value second), and the bottom seal is the disproportionate item — the door that sheds water is the door that never bonds to the Murray slab.
A complete quote here itemises removal and disposal, new track, springs matched to the new door's weight, and re-limiting of the opener. When one bid undercuts the field, check which of those it dropped before celebrating.
Same metro, different numbers: Murray in context
Drive fifteen minutes and the inputs change — Taylorsville's median build year is 1978; South Salt Lake's median build year is 1958; and Midvale's median build year is 1970.
Against that backdrop, Murray holds 85.9 cycles at 4,298 ft with a 1971 median build year — the specific inputs behind every figure above.
