The second best thing was a lot of electric outlets, and plenty of spare outlets and hooks in the ceiling to hang fluorescent light fixtures from. Kenny G

My shop is 15x25. High roof, a loft, about 8x12, on one corner.
That looks like room to park. I hope you included room for tools.
The area, everything about how stuff Was when we did the shop, kept me from having design time,, and I can't get a car IN the shop, and close the door. Well, I have, but, it requires a lot of moving stuff, Jack the car up, push,

Tools, workbench, vise, drillpress, refrigerator, shelves, for oil, filters, battery charger, anti freeze, various lubricants,,and, a board on top of the fridge, coffeemaker, cups, coffee,

Strategic parking can fit 14 fullsized pickups AND 10-15 motorcycles. Also have the Model A era 2 car garage turned workshop, with 3 lean to additions, one of which is big enough to store the Class A motorhome. You'll get there...

splash07 Serious Thumper Offline Posts: 911 Charleston, SC Gender:	Re: getting a garage (finally) Reply #13 - 11/15/15 at 16:23:07 those cabinets look great, I was thinking some lockers, maybe three or four good size metal lockers. overhead storage is a must. We will have a 16' door in the front and one 9' door in the back right in the middle. But, I am planning to do barn doors on the back to save overhead space.

Looking good so far, I have a washer dryer in mine (at the front), so mine is not really a "car" garage at all.... but the bikes are happy in there
