Garage Plans
Several web sites offer Garage Plans to purchase and it’s a great way to get ideas. Our plan page provides a small sample of our favorite plans to stir your imagination.
So what type of garage fits your needs?
Are you the Drive in/Drive
out type? You drive your car into the garage and shut the door. You have a few tools, a bicycle, and your lawnmower in there too. You prefer simple organization. Take a look at this
garage plan.
A simple plan with good storage space for your gear.
Do you have a hobby that requires some storage space or work area? Your garage serves multiple purposes including parking the car, storing tools that are easily accessible, storing larger equipment or supplies, and you need a comfortable work area. For the Hobbyist I’d recommend a design like this
spacious garage.
The plan offers a totally separate room you can use an office or wood working shop. Hey, I would rebuild engines in there! The center of the garage is e x t r a deep to fit your SUV, and it even has a bathroom and sink.
Do you have a Mother-in-law that visits often or live in a popular area getting frequent friends and family using your home as a vacation resort? Your new garage apartment plan can help you keep your sanity and save your marriage! This tidy
2 car complete apartment plan
offers 666 sq. ft of living space. I personally like a little more space and this
3 + car beauty
with 928 sq. ft. of apartment space fits my needs.
Are your kids getting to the age when their toys are almost as big as yours? The Kid-Space garage is what you need. Not only do you need a spot for your car but your little guy has a battery operated Ferrari that needs a spot too including space for his “tools”. This
30' x 50' 3-car garage with loft
has lot's of extra space.
Or, do you practically live in your garage? You wouldn’t think twice about pulling out the lawn chairs and entertaining your friends in the garage. As a matter of fact you’d have a full service bar in there if you had the room. Now that's really kool! If you’re the 'Live-in-your-garage' guy then you have to see my
Dream Garage Design.
This 3 car monster has a separate storage room, a 3/4 bath and a great game room upstairs. Think of all the noise you can make in here without disturbing the family. Two doors to the back yard and a balcony ice the cake.
When searching for garage plans, keep in mind that some companies will offer one or two revisions to the plans at no charge. Some guarantee your approval of a building permit. A good set of detailed plans may cost several hundred dollars. Don’t be afraid however to purchase less expensive garage plans that may lack a few features. A local builder or architect may be able to modify them with considerations to your local building codes for a reasonable charge.
Most plan sites I have seen only offer garage plans for 1, 2, or 3 car garages. If you are in the market for a “massive 5 car + collecting garage”, I recommend you rush over to CoolPlans.com. CoolPlans has the goods with over 100 garage plans available. They even satisfy the collector with their 6 car plans!
These are just a sample of the many available garage construction plans. You may find it helpful to visit our Design Guide to plan for all your needs before you purchase garage construction plans.
