PaulB,

Excellent point about mobility access, I dont plan on it but it seems like building the house/garage to those specs will make it easier on me anyway (wider doors = easier access) and if it does happen well then I'm covered.

WindJunkie,
Glad I could put my $.02 in. As far as those specs go I would say pick and choose what you want. Framing and supports are cheaper to put in when building, but personally, being 6'7" I find ADA (americans with disabilities act) specs for counter height and light switch locations annoying. Also, if a service loop is put in or wires are routed for easy change of switch location later it would be a minimal cost if there was ever a need or as a selling point if you ever sell.

Good luck,
Paul
