About to pour knee walls on a 28x28 garage, trying to figure out spacing for the knee walls. On the front of the garage there will be (2) 8hx9w doors and a standard size walk in door.

Recommendations and or pictures you could share would be great. This will be an attached garage to a cape home.

Generally on a garage door you make the opening in the concrete wall either 3 or 6" bigger than your door, 3" should be fine on the small doors, but 6" will give you 3" on each side that can be helpful when trimming. I'd go with 6" bigger.
3" allows one 2x on each side to attach your door track & trim to 1.5"x2=3")
6" " two '' '' '' '' '' 1.5"x4=6"
