My brother Jim wrote to correct me on some details of Dad's garage door device.
" Just a note about Dad's garage door contraption. It was not an opener but only a closer. As you pulled out of the garage you would pull on the handle that was attached to the rope and the doors would close without getting out of the car. The doors would close one door at a time and it was fun to watch. Dad was very proud of his apparatus. But after about the third time some darn fool broke it trying to open the garage doors, Dad did not repair it anymore. It was great at the time. "
I should put a disclaimer on all my memories that they are subject to my kid-brain interpretation. In fact...consider this my disclaimer.
