I had no dimensions before of the total unit. The camera can be tricky
in how it scales things but if the total depth (to back wall from the
open front) in 36-38inches and the wide (side to side) is 30.5, then
about right and leave room for brooms and stuff if you need that.

The problem is the visual appears to be more like 50-60 inches. That
might be camera related though.

If it is a lot deeper, you can add more rail later and extend out along
it 12 more inches with little trouble later.

Lots of ideas though if as it seems, it's 30.5 side to side in there.
It almost looks at the base like people stepped in there to get at
things?
