Cut the arch with a jigsaw.
Wooden garage door plan.
This free garage plan gives you directions for constructing a 14 x 24 x 8 detached garage that includes a garage door door and window.

Divide the height evenly by three.
Even so the posts were only like five bucks apiece so you could use them to help plumb in a not so vertical opening or for just.
Mark on the tape provided the perfect radius.
Each of our panels will be 12.
