Building a shop, how should I lay out the doors?

40x40x16 shop. Mixed use space. I like to do some wood work, vehicle maintenance, tinkering, learning how to fix things on my own. This shop is really for a lot of different things. My question is about garage door size and lay out on the front wall. I know I want the left 10’ by 40 to be for stationary things like a work bench, bolt bins, things that don’t move. I know I want two garage doors and a man door. I’m thinking from left to right 9’, then a 10’ wide 10’ tall garage door, then 2’, man door, 2’, then 14x14’ door. Thoughts? submitted by /u/frozenhook [link] [comments]
