The Junior Fire Co plans to replace aging front doors and related components as breakdowns rise from heavy use since 1960. An $8,000 automatic door system will improve insulation and reduce heating costs, with monthly bills previously around 200 dollars. The 1913 building at 535 N. Market St. was expanded in 1980 and doors are from Frederick Overhead Door Co.
