designing my new lean to garage and the roller door will cover most of the end of the garage can I build a steel frame for the end to house the door and a window then clad the space above the door and below the window with cladding
the roof will be box profile sheets so lighter than tiles in using steel I can have the door tight to the left without needing to build a pier for a lintel a I cannot build lintel into party wall View media item 65584
 
as the pics show the current and new door would be tight to the left the current timber frame is fastened to the party wall and I want to fit a roller door so was thinking a 100mm x 100mm steel frame

the max garage width is 4375 to external wall so 3050 door +100mm+100mm frame +140mm for wall leaving about 900mm for window so there would be no weight in this end of the building
