Garage Designs

There are several different garage designs represented in our collection of garage plans. They vary by number of stories, style of roof, dormers, number of garage doors, use of storage space, and external decoration.

We have one and two story garage plans. Two story plans provide space for storage, bonus room, apartment, or hobby room on the upper floor. Some of our one story garage designs have shop or storage space separate from the garage space. Some two story designs have detailed apartments with kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom.

We have garage designs with different roof styles. The typical plan has a gable roof with the garage door under the eave or in the gable end. Some designs have a hip roof with eaves on all four sides. We have garage plans with porches, gambrel or barn roofs, flat roofs, and southwest adobe style.

We have one car garage designs, two car, three car, and four car. A one car garage door is between 8’ and 10’ . A two car garage door is usually 16’ but can be wider. Our larger garage designs have multiple garage doors.

Dormer garage designs add usable space to the upper floor. A shed dormer is wider than a gable dormer and will add the most space. Some of our garage designs have gable dormers on both sides which effectively makes the upper floor space nearly the same as the main floor space. Gable garage designs add upper floor space but not near as much as a gable dormer. Some designs have one dormer, some two, some three, and others have four. Each dormer will have at least one window for added light and possible egress from habitable space.

Decorations include belly bands, returned eaves, window moldings, corner moldings, gridded windows, brick or stone trim, All decorations can be added to any of our standard plans.
