Abstract: A retractable screen assembly is disclosed for a standard garage door of the type that is selectively raised and lowered to open and close the garage. The assembly includes one or more screen panels stacked against and extending across an inside surface of the garage door. The panels are telescopically mounted to the garage door such that they are selectively positioned in a retracted condition wherein the panels are held in substantially parallel juxtaposition against the garage door, and an extended condition wherein the panels depend from the garage door and extend generally between the lower edge of the garage door and a floor of the garage when the garage door is raised. The panels are releasably locked in the retracted condition to permit the garage door to be raised with the panels in the retracted condition. The panels are released so that they slide into the extended condition when the garage door is raised.

Abstract: An overhead storage system particularly suitable for installation within a garage, includes a lift arrangement for receiving and delivering articles to be stored. The lift arrangement includes a mechanism for elevating the articles between a lower position where they can be placed on or removed from the lift arrangement by a person standing on the garage floor, and an upper position a certain distance above the lower position. In the disclosed embodiment, a storing mechanism operates to retrieve articles from or to deliver articles to the lift arrangement at the upper position, and to transport the articles between the upper position and a storage area offset from the upper position which area is at a storage level above and clear of the garage floor.
