Construction - Wheelchairs and Stair Landings

[Tonesky 934]

We are building an elevated house (6') and are trying to plan for the possible future need for a wheelchair lift.  We have sufficient space (per several lift dealers) to add a lift next to the garage stairs.  But the illustration in the plans does not look like the stair landing would be sufficient for someone to actually get in and out of the house in a wheelchair without tumbling down the stairs.  Anyone have a sense of how far the landing should extend beyond the door before reaching the first stair riser, so that a person in a wheelchair could get to and from the lift, and in and out of the house, without doing a Monty Python down the stairs?

ADA requirement for wheelchair turnaround is minimum 60" clear space. It's also the minimum for two wheelchairs to pass each other. Not that you have to follow ADA since it's your house but that's just the guideline if it were a business or public space.

The door is a 3-0 so yeah that landing looks real tight for a turning wheelchair. What does the width measure?
