cotes d’approche

GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

French term or phrase: cotes d’approche
CONTEXT ::
"Des dessins à l’échelle avec toutes les cotes d’approche de tous les mouvements selon les trois (3) axes"

and (incorrect spelling) Côte d’approche du crochet principal dans le sens translation.

I got a definition of "La cote d'approche est la distance entre le crochet jusqu'au mur, quand le palan est placé le plus proche possible sur le côté."

I'm thinking 'clearance width/height etc.' but not sure if this is the best way to express it in this case.
