It seems like Hurricane Isaac is coming in our direction. The best thing to do right now is prepare. Make sure you have all the essentials. Bottled water(one gallon per person per day), canned food and all medications. Have a plan for your evacuation if necessary. With all that done, now its time to plan how to protect your property. Keep an eye on the possible path of the storm and start planning to place your shutters. make sure you have all necessary hardware. Next, and probably most important, make sure your garage door is ready. Check all hinges, rollers, struts(the long reinforcing beams that run the full length of the door), and panels. This is the largest opening of the house, but the easiest to overlook. If you have any doubts about the condition of your garage door, call a professional garage door company to evaluate the condition of your door. STAY SAFE EVERYONE! PREPARE, PREPARE, PREPARE!!!
