4 foot's a bit wider than a normal house door, they're more like 3. You can get an SV through a typical door no problems, though it's tight- mine goes in and out the back door of my garage every day. You couldn't do it so easily with bar-end mirrors, or anything with really wide bars- you'd need to get it in at an angle and get one bar through at a time. It'd be a hassle...

Plus, with such a narrow door you need to go pretty much straight in and out, if you turn the bike before you're through you'll catch the tail on the doorposts.

10ft by 10ft is, I think, more than big enough for 3 bikes.
