Garage Doors in Maine

Maine's snow load is genuinely severe by national standards — ground snow loads used in structural design range from roughly 50 pounds per square foot along the southern coast to more than 100 pounds per square foot in northern and mountain communities, and the state can see anywhere from 50 to over 100 inches of snowfall in a typical year. Garages are a documented weak point under that load: they typically have thinner insulation, more air leaks, and more thermal bridging than the rest of a house, which makes them especially prone to the ice dams that form when escaping heat melts roof snow that then refreezes at the colder eave — backing water up under shingles and, over a Maine winter, adding real weight and water intrusion right at the header above the garage door opening.
