Can my metal garage have windows and different doors?

The available configuration depends on the garage package, but doors and windows should be considered while you're planning the layout.

Making those decisions early helps you choose a layout that works instead of adding features wherever they'll fit.

What can I keep in a metal garage?

Cars and trucks are obvious, but metal garages can also hold lawn equipment, tools, recreational gear and general storage. Larger buildings can leave room for work areas, too.
