To have a fixed left margin (e.g. of 20% of the whole size), you must use
set lmargin at screen 0.2

In case that for your different graphs the ytics digit count changes, 
you must use 'set label' instead of 'set ylabel', something like:

set label 'ylabel' center at screen 0.05, graph 0.5 rotate by 90
