Garage question - width of escos with both doors open??

[kjc300]

Daft question but someone may have the info to hand

Going to be building a garage next year and I'm seeing what I need size wise.

well, next year...you'll probably have another project. (that's how it goes, isn't it?) so double any measurements you get!!! plus tool boxes, stereo, fridge, bench etc etc

Ahhh I have the answer somewhere on the PC but can't find it, I got the measurements after I built a carport earlier this year and wanted to make sure next time that I made it as wide as you're asking the question about I had very limited space so ended up with basically glorified storage as opposed to somewhere to work on it... thankfully that's where Mark King comes in handy

I'll keep looking - it'll be in a random word document

They are never big enough lol

How accurate do you need it to be?? Does it just need to miss the doors when they are open?
The car is 1734 wide. I added an extra metre on for each door.

It's just my idea of the space you need for any car really. I'm looking at a minimum of the car (with space around) and a workbench/ storage down one side. I think I can fit a 5m wide garage in the space so should just about be ok.
