Each has a door in front of it so I don't have to move non-running vehicles when I bring in a car to work on. I put in a 4th door for vehicles that don't need a lift or pit. We also built it tall enough to put in a mezzanine level for storage and tucked a bathroom under the stairs. I went with a metal building to get clear span and tall ceilings for the mezzanine. For metal buildings, you buy them by the pound. Adding height and to a lesser extent size costs very little extra. The slab was the biggest expense. Also, going with standard building sizes cuts costs. You can often find buildings that people put a deposit on and then backed out. The factory sells these very cheap. We also built in a compressor room to keep the noise level down.
