    I currently about to order windows and a door for a garage iv built. How much space do i leave between the window and the block.

    Should i just round to the closest nice and tidy number and let the plaster worry about it.

    Usually it’s best to buy the windows and build the opes accordingly
    That’s for 2nds from a supplier for a garage

    If it was that simple, surely the answer would be simple?
    You are reinventing the wheel here.

    10mm all round, assuming opes are square
