Here is a great scale calculator program link: http://www.mksmc.co.uk/hintsandtips/scale_calculator.htm 

For making the roll up garage-style shop doors, check out sheet plastic from Plastruct or Evergreen.  They have multiple styles of siding and roofing materials that would work as the door sections. 

For scale widths of roads, doors, windows, etc, just use the calculator and input the actual widths to get the scale measurements.  For example a standard street lane is about 10 feet wide.  In 1/35 scale, it equals about 87 millimeters.

I picked up one of these from my LHS for like $3. haven't used it much but think is bout what your lookin for.

my architects scale does not have 1:35 on it so I need a way to measure accurately for my 1:35th scale buildings.

Well, you can use the 3/8" = 1'-0" scale if you are willing to tolerate that being 1/32 instead of 1/35 scale.  Otherwise, you'll need some decimal sort of scale, like as not.

You may need to specify a bit more on the "where" or "over there" you'd like to represent.  Probably not that many places with a 3-0 side walk on either side of a 13' single-lane or 26' double-lane road.
