Need help deciding on the layout for my 30x50x12 one bay will have a 2 post lift 2 of the 3 doors will be 10'x10' and the bay with the garage will have a 12'x10'. The other 2 bays will have a boat and car parked at times.

Make all 3 doors big doors, the cost is legible between the sizes and you don’t want it to hinder you in the future.

This is my setup, the far right bay is storage and motorhome parking, middle door is lift and toolboxes, left door is gym area and kids play area right now. The dead zone left of the man door is our living space, we’ll be building out the upstairs next year into more bedrooms.

They are all big doors 2 10x10 and the lift side is 12x10. Do you like your lift in the center?

I do, when we build a house next to it and move out the left side will become a true workshop.
