RV garage is going up. Size is 37x56 CMU with a finished ceiling at 16'. I am now looking for high intensity dimmable LED lighting. I am leaning towards the UFO lighting. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Looks for recommendations for a 4 post lift with 9K capacity, Prefer Made in the USA. Will be installed in SW Florida.

I have be rethinking the dimensions for my garage build. I am now thinking maybe building it 40ft wide and 40ft deep. With the 40ft width I should be able to park 4 vehicles side by side in the back part of the garage and then use the front for a work area.

I am currently looking at a 4 post lift.

My concrete guy suggested extra footings under the slab where the lift will be located.

Looking at steel buildings. Is there a way to make the outside of a steel building look like stucco wall?

Tell me about it. In SW Florida the building has to be built to hurricane codes. Looks like more than twice the cost I expected.

My building will be only 36ft wide. I really did not want most of the front of the building to be all door. However at this point I am not going to rule out 14 ft doors.

Generally 13'6" is max height on the nations highways. There are rare occasions where you can be 14 ft.

Ok thanks for the info.

So if the door is all the way up in the horizontal position the Liftmaster will not power it forward enough for gravity to take over?

I will have plenty of room to maneuver. I think the 12ft doors look better than have entire front of the building all door.

Yes, something to be aware of

I am still looking for a builder in SW Florida can do the project. I will put this on my list for discussion.

I think that is why the designed ceiling height is 16 ft is for the garage door clearance.
