We back in our cars, so I installed a NEMA 14-50 on the back wall of each stall. I also went with the Liftmaster 8500 door openers, and they are everything that has been previously stated. That being said, has anyone had any problem getting them integrated with the Tesla control? I could never get them to work with my Toyota.
A few other points:
- Go with 10' wide doors minimum. (although my mother in law still managed to break my wife's side mirror the other day)
- You can replace the door track bracing hardware with something cleaner looking. I used 1.5" square tube, painted it the ceiling colour and welded end caps for a much cleaner look.
- Epoxy floors are beautiful but need to be installed with the proper surface preparation and epoxy primer to avoid it lifting off with the tire tread. Also, it should have flakes or grit added to the final coat to ensure it is not slippery when wet.
- Consider floor drains if permitted.
- Aim for lots of lighting.
- I also have in floor heating, which you may or may not need in your region, but will help with snow buildup and allows winter washing.
I agree with having the additional garage space. Missing from photo: Tractor garage, full barn, and full size workshop. All spaces are extensively used, and I would hate to have to avoid items from any of the other areas when parking my car.
Cheers,
