A bit tangential but it seems that architectural trends over the last couple of decades has been to do away with the standard human size door that used to be common in garages. Probably 90% of the times I open my vehicle size door, I could have used a human size door instead. I was planning on building a shed in the backyard, which would eliminate most of these door opening events, but then lumber prices went insane so maybe by autumn the time for that will be right.
I'm curious as to why human size doors in garages have become so unpopular in residential architecture. Security concerns? Energy efficiency? Streamlined appearance? Cost cutting?
