Looking for ideas on large doorway and doors that might work.

I am looking to create the appearance of a gate in the Antiquarian's Alpine Gallery where a boat can enter and exit the small waterway at the rear of the property. I don't mind if the style isn't in the Nord way but feel daedric stuff is too far off that I am not interested in them. I don't mind building the gate on top of blocks to gain height as long as it doesn't expose too much of the rock behind it. I am also looking to keep the size of the boat and gate in proportion to each other though with their distance from each other a little bit of mismatched size is probably ok. I have tried the Solitude Archway but I had trouble figuring a way to fit a door. It is also a bit too narrow for the boat but as I said I can work around that if needed. Here are some screen shots of where I'm looking to put the gate and the boat I am using. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Thanks for bringing it up but I know about uesp. The problem is it's hard to tell the actual sizes and nothing shows doorways or archways with actual doors in them. I've also looked at ESO Fashion but the site doesn't have many of the newer items and again lacks screenshots of doors in the various doorways.

    I wasn't aware of the option to preview placement. I'll give that a try. Thanks.

    The dreadsail reef door fits between the right hand side of the antiquarian house and the right hand wall if that helps guage the size

    I took some screenshots (the character is a dark elf for comparison

    The first is where (I think) you want to put it and the second is at the side of the house for comparison

    EDIT - they are an orc not a dark elf lol

    Yes the first shot is roughly where I want to put a door. That does help quite a bit thank you.
