Bell 206/505 in T-hangar

Perhaps a dumb question and if so, apologies - I’m a fixed wing guy and heli noob.

What’s the feasibility of keeping a two-bladed heli like a 206 or 505 in a t-hangar whose dimensions allow for, but also necessitate, a configuration where the rotor is rotated 90deg from its typical “parked” forward/aft axis? Presumably you’d need some sort of rotor tie-down to keep it in that position while moving the helicopter in/out of the hangar, but otherwise, any reason why that’s not a feasible idea?
