Installation Guide

Two ways to hang your GarageBuddy — both easy, just a little different:

A. The Quick & Easy Method – Fast, straightforward, and up in minutes.
B. The Hidden Velcro Method – A discreet setup for those who want to keep Velcro out of sight.

Pick the one that works best for you!



Method A- The Quick & Easy Method

(Our most popular — up in minutes!)

1. Clean the Surface

Wipe the top of your garage door to remove dust and debris.

2. Stick The Velcro Base

Apply the velcro strip (full or in sections) at the top part of the door and press firmly. 

3. Attach The Top

Attach the top of the banner to the Velcro.

4. Hook the Corners

Stretch and adjust the sewn-in adjustable elastic bands on each bottom corner and hook them onto the second hinge behind your garage door. It should neither be too tight nor too loose.

Voila! Your transformation is complete.

 


 

Method B- The Hidden Velcro Method

(Great if you’d rather keep the Velcro out of sight and keep it on for reuse)

 

1. Open & Clean- Lift the garage door about 1/4 — just enough to reach the upper front face of the door with a ladder from inside the garage. Wipe this section (the part that tucks under the rubber seal when the door is closed) with rubbing alcohol and let it dry.

2. Stick the Velcro – Stick the Velcro to the top part you just cleaned, end to end.

3. Attach the Cover – Start from one top corner and press the top of the banner onto the velcro. Let the rest hang straight to avoid tangling with the door tracks or opener chain.

4. Hook the Bottom- Step down, adjust the elastic bands if needed, hook to the second hinge, and lower the door.

That's it. Done!

Note: The banner may sit just a touch higher with this method — purely visual and does not affect function.
