Hello everyone!
As some users have requested before, I’m now starting a new thread with the current planning of our detached house, which is about to be finalized.
These are the preliminary drawings for the building permit / planning permission application, and I have one last chance to review them and point out any issues.
It still seems to me that there is less than 1.20m (4 feet) of space between the two wardrobes in the dressing room. Or am I seeing this wrong? Apparently, the rooms on the left and right were overlooked and not adjusted accordingly.
Two Velux ceiling spotlights are still planned to illuminate the upper floor hallway.
In the basement, on the right side in the upper room, a window similar to the one on the left basement side is an option.
We still haven’t decided on the T30 fire-rated door to the garage, even though it is shown in the plans. Most likely, for safety reasons and the limited use of the kitchen at the other end of the house, we will eventually forgo it.
User 11ant pointed out that the right window in child’s room 2 is suboptimally positioned. However, this could still be changed after submitting the building permit / planning permission application. Our architect thinks moving the window to the left would negatively affect the house’s exterior appearance. We’ll have to see about that.

The slats do not affect the door height. The installation height can always be chosen freely.However, the sections and their cladding must then be adjusted to these desired dimensions. The larger the span of this segment, the more awkward it looks to work with fractional parts. Ideally, the desired measurement is evenly divisible, but here it seems a cladding with a fixed module size was chosen (?)https://www.instagram.com/11antgmxde/

Could it be that the rear gate is set lower because it was aligned flush with the door?I would say the gate was not adjusted to the door, but rather the other way around.
The door is shown in the plans without any dimensions, whereas both gates are listed with a height of 2.135m (7 feet) there. So I rather think the door is a downstream issue.
By the way, the door is the only one in the whole house built at a height of 2 meters (6 feet 7 inches). Even the criticized patio doors were taller. So it just doesn’t add up at all.
I still don’t fully understand it, but we have had similar discussions a hundred times.
I also thought that if I, as a non-expert, said: here is a photo, make it like this, someone would then tell me: that won’t work for you because...
No one did, and then we were left on our own.
Solving the problem was our responsibility because the site manager would have accepted it as it was.

There is a building permit / planning permission and an execution plan, which are technically identical. Both documents show the two garage doors as well as the door. The door has no specified measurements in either document. The garage doors are each marked with a height of 2.135 m (7 feet) in both documents.
Furthermore, the contract states that the two garage doors are to be installed exactly as specified in the building permit / planning permission – Garage Door A in Design X, Garage Door B in Design Y. Nothing more, and nothing less.
Since when have factory plans or plans in general included doors without dimensions?
Honestly, I have never seen that before.
And I have looked at quite a few architectural plans already.
Could it have been deliberately left out, so you as the general contractor can finalize the measurements on site?
Is there at least a side view in the plan where the height can be measured using the scale?
That should be possible with standard plans.

Honestly, I have never seen that.I’m happy to share the documents.
This is the construction drawing (similar to the building permit application—but not exactly; in the permit application, the upper gate was also indicated to have the same width as the lower gate…):
And the building visualizations.
And here’s a photo from the back:
The building height is indicated there. I measured it myself to establish a scale and measured the garage on the drawing. It definitely shows more than 2 meters (6.6 feet) at the back, not less!
