We have a 3124KB built in September 2021.
Garage is 272 inches deep.
TM is 22' 1.5 inches with the hitch in the shorter 'open' position.
We have a rubber parking lot curb installed to limit how far back the TM can be pushed so it does not hit the wall.
The curb keeps it 5 inches from back wall. (4 inches would have been better, 3 would work, leave space in case it rides up on the curb due to momentum).
This leaves 1.5 inches from opened hitch to inside of garage door.
I have 1/2 inch trim on bottom of garage door so it any contact between door hand hitch hits the trim.
We always push the TM the the last 4 feet into and outside of the garage. This is easy to do on a level surface.
