When businessman Glenn Farrell went around the corner from his companyâs offices to buy a new garage door for his house in late 2019, he ended up spending a lot more than he planned.Â
Farrell, the owner of industrial wire-products maker Lumsden Corp., first talked to a salesman in the showroom of Calder Door on Loop Road about a new garage door. Then Farrell asked the salesman if he knew of any nearby buildings for sale or lease.Â
Fortunately for Farrell, the salesman did â that very Calder Door building, because Calder Door was being sold and moving to Mechanicsburg. So Farrell bought the building as the pivotal piece of a $2.2 million expansion for his steadily growing corporation.Â
