Props needed for garage side door?

It depends on the width of the opening.
We have done it with and without for door sized openings. Sometimes you may need one, two or even three props depending (as the chaps have said) what is happening above.
Worst case you will need to prop joists and have a strongboys prop handy to secure the brickwork too. Maybe even have a prop spare to help press the lintel into place. We have our own props and Strongboys so are free to grab what we need when we need it.

The wall plate won't buckle across say 900mm unless you remove material directly beneath that join in the WP.
