Last week the spring on our garage door broke. It was out of service for 6 days until a repairman was available to fix it. Fortunately no cars were in the garage at the time. Also fortunately, I was able to put the 18' cord on our wall-mounted EVSE under the door (which I crowbarred up for the purpose) and there was just enough length for it to be used to charge the LEAF outside the garage.
I've long planned to move our EVSE forward in the garage for better access, but I've dropped those plans. If you are planning on a garage EVSE you might want to consider, as part of location planning, the need to charge outside the garage in the event of door failure.
