4. Get EVERYTHING you want on the plans to avoid change orders.
Thanks.

1. I get the ground floor thing - and would love to have made that happen - but it just isn't possible on our lot. And we ain't moving for awhile (thanks to Prop 13 in CA).

2. Hoist? For the lift posts you mean? Bend Pak specs 4-6" at 3000 psi so I think we're at 6" for the slab. You're saying go more than 6?

3. Haven't looked at openers yet - what's the rub there?

4. Yeah that's my goal. And if you can believe it - I'll be acting as the GC on this.
