Last year I had this place built to host some of my '2nd cars'. To my design, insulated and in the rear of my property, its 120m squared. The structure is done though the drive is note quite there yet, and the two four post ramps are not in yet. I need another 60 tonnes of road scrapings to top it off and more wife approved fundage. This is from the weekend /showing off the shed. If you want to see more I can post pictures

Very nice. Is there any reason for going with two four-post hoists? Are you storing cars underneath? For me personally, one hoist would always be plenty, and I would go for a two-post for working on things. I suppose the four post is nicer for anything which doesn't need the wheels off.
I'm not trying to change your mind, by the way. I'd be interested to hear the design considerations.

Thanks for the comments. I wanted (2 of) four posters to allow for long term storagem prefer the stability and you can get jacks to lift the wheels off the ground. I've got other cars to fit in here as well, some which don't get driven very often. Wife thinks I have a problem lol
