keep in mind a 48" deck requires at least a 60" door opening or you will be banging into walls and ripping the grass deflector off it

I park my 48" Gravely HD in a 50" spot. Mulch kit removed grass deflector and slow and steady keeps one from banging into walls.

Yeah, the double doors to the shed have a 60 inch clearance. 64 inch frame, but allowing 2 inches on each side for the door.

The semi tricky part is the shed is basically a rectangle, but it's wider (about 156 inches, or 13 feet) than it is deep (76 inches, or 6 ft 4 in), with the door at the front left of the shed. So I'll be pulling in straight and making a hard right turn to store. Or I could just pull it straight forward and just climb around it when I need to get into the shed. :Facepalm:

Most of these mowers are between 67.5 and 70 inches long, except the SDX, which is 73 inches. And all are 49 to 50 inches wide with the grass chute up, except the Ferris, which is 53 inches wide.

The Scag is the shortest (67.5), and narrowest (49 with chute up), so that's where I'm leaning.
