At the minute, the two piers forming the garage entrance have a big notch like a letter “L” at the top. Can you see? I think that is where the lintel will sit.

The target garage door cartridge is 16 feet by 7 feet high. Should be ok!

The aesthetic of the gable above is s big more challenging (to me).
