I'm finally getting a barn built, 42'x72'x16'. 20' and 22' sliding doors, 20' split doors facing west and 22' single door facing north. (I wanted a 25' door, but my builder (Pioneer pole buildings for those familiar) recommended 22' for cost reasons. I'm excited, I've needed a barn for a while, and this should meet my needs for years to come. I live here in SE Michigan and I have a question for the northerners.

I don't remember having many problems like this with my cousin's barn when I kept things there. I'm going to have a 22' sliding door facing north, am I asking for trouble?
If you guys have any other advice for me before they build (which may be later this week) or after they build I'd appreciate it. I've been around this stuff, but Dad didn't farm and this will be the first Barn I or Dad will have owned. I'll have to post some pictures of the barn and my fleet of equipment when I'm done for everybody to enjoy.
