as above however there are a few considerations that you must also make. Don't place your door either due east or west, offset it slightly as when you enter the dome you may bump directly into either the scope or the counter weights as you enter. Also make sure that when you setup that where the computer is placed in one of the insets or bays that you won't get in the way of the scope etc.
The best advice is place the pier in the center of the dome and allow sufficient height to easily see your horizons or near enough.
