I'm just trying to figure out if the extra money is worth paying. It would be an additional 5990 which will include taller doors and windows head too. TA. After living in both types I'd never go back to standard ceiling heights to be honest. The feeling of it to me is completely different. We've added 2.75 to this build. The spacious open feel is what we love though and we added extra insulation and DG to help counter the heating/cooling issues. I guess it's a personal taste thing so visiting heaps of both types of displays may be a good way to help you decide. Thanks for your reply. My husband and i kept going back and forth with this one... i ended up leaving it on the variations list but hubby still thinks we'd be fine without the higher ceilings! Too late, we've gone with it Re: Things you forget - summary page 32 976Sep 30, 2016 6:33 pm jpmontoya T-Bar over garage door, i wish i knew how to read the plans properly back then, i would have got it for sure Sorry can you explain what that is please?

Curious to know if I might need one haha Yep as stewie explained, it is a row of bricks above the garage door. Seems better looking than pelmet but it is debatable as the brickie who worked at our place said that pelmets allowed proper sealing of the garage but if you get a good quality garage door.

Either way, whether you go for an infill panel or bricks there, the garage door installer should be able to get a tight fit up against it. As long as there is enough height from the bottom of the beam to the underside of the garage ceiling and enough setback from the outer to inner bricks for the channel etc on the sides they should be able to do this easily. Don't believe what a brickie tells you ! Stewie Depends what you're current inclusions are, but we're not including wardrobes and will just use second hand ones until we can save later on to get them built.
