Door spacing

[PhantomEB]

This thread won't last long for me as I be building soon!

24x24 with 2 9x8 doors spaced 1' apart. Need at least 2' from one door to wall to accommodate the compressor.

Vote whether you would space 2' from one wall with the 1' and remainder to far end; even spacing on both sides with the 1' gap; or all three even; and why!

Why I going with 2 doors is there's always one project that doesn't move much.

On our house garage, you can see pics of it in the thread in my sig, I spaced the two 9x8 doors 32" apart, 2 foundation blocks wide. Since it's basically a parking garage, I wanted room between the vehicles so the car doors could be opened all the way without hitting the other vehicle.

I wanted 4' on each side and about 18" or so in the middle. Allows room along on the sides to open doors and have a bench, cabinets etc.
The contractors (general and foundation) spaced them evenly, used narrower over head doors and put a man door to one side (it was supposed to be on the side wall). BTW they never actually used any of the doors because I sent the general packing before they were installed. Too many similar issues.

With 1' spaces you will probably have to go with some kind of moment frame to get any shear in the wall. It may be cheaper to go with one door.
