I'm planning to build a small store/shed, which will have an opening for double doors which will be 1.2m wide.
Overall dimensions will be 2.5m deep x 1.8m wide x 2.2m height at the lowest point (where the pitched roof meets the wall)
It will be a single skin brick structure, with a couple of double skin pillars to strengthen, and a pitched roof on it covered with tiles.
I imagine that there will be perhaps two or three brick courses above the top of the door frame.
What kind of lintel should I be installing to span the door opening?
I'm thinking something ike this:
