Garage doors in Rockford

Rockford is far enough from Chicago's lakefront pull to have grown on its own terms, along the Rock River, with a manufacturing-era core of older neighborhoods ringed by newer subdivisions. A good number of the city's garages, and the chain-drive openers inside them, date back to that mid-20th-century building wave and have never been swapped out.

That older hardware has to hold up to the same northern Illinois pattern as the rest of the region: thunderstorm season in summer and a winter that swings between hard freezes and thaws rather than staying reliably cold.
