Summary

I would like to have a retractable motorcycle shed that is about 110" (2794nn) in length, 42" (1066.8mm) deep when retracted and about 80" (2032mm) when expanded outwards. It depends on the sliding system (similar to drawers slides). The shed would open only on its front ( you stop the motorcycle in front of it, lift the doors (that should have hydraulic gas strut with a bifold panel that splits on the center hinge). One the motorcycle is parked in front of it and the doors are open, you would pull the retracted structure out (sliding to cover the full motorcycle) and one you get the maximum extension of 80", you would close and lock the door. Ideally there would be two sets of vents on each end of the side panels that are 4" (101.6mm) tall by 10" (254mm) wide. The shed does not need a bottom structure (only wheels on the retractable walls). The back part that gets attached to a wall, should be strong enough to hold hooks for helmet and jackets. About 4 hooks total. The back wall should also have an opening to run electric.
