I realize your decision is made, and it will work nicely. However, just to be complete, I was not suggesting replacing the header beams. Rather, I was suggesting a way to keep them, while narrowing the area between the doors.

This would also make it a 17' door, which would have to be special ordered and pricey (and 10 weeks delivery time).
Agreed that it would be expensive. Is it worth it? Depends on how often you plan to get the TM in and out of the garage, and how much work you are willing to do each time - and how much cost and work will go into modifying the TM.
