Garage Designs of All Kinds

When you have a garage built by Designer Properties Garages, you start by selecting one of five different types of garages. Designer Properties works from these existing garage designs and can customize these garage plans to suit your tastes.

Gable roof garage design — the standard garage roof style. The triangular gable faces the road and is built to match the gables on the house.

Reverse gable roof garage design — one of the most common garage roof styles. The angle of the roofline slopes to the front and back of the garage. The gable ends face the sides.

Hip roof garage design — built for extra storage capacity and extra strength in windstorms. Several types are available.

I-joist — ideal for the homeowner with extra garage storage needs. The strength of the I-joist wood beams in the floor allows the structure to support the weight of additional storage space above.

Balloon construction — another option for extra garage storage space and strength. The capacity on the upper level is supported by continuous wall studs that run the entire height of the structure.

 

Garages in All Sizes

Using these five designs as a base, we can develop customized garage plans to please every customer! Whether you need a basic one-car garage, a garage for three or more cars with storage and accessories, or something in between, Designer Properties Garages can customize your garage to meet your needs. For a custom garage job, you can select from a variety of sizes

 

One car — the basic garage, with optional service door and windows and limited storage space.

Two cars — the overhead door located for easy access, with standard service door and optional windows and basic storage space.

Two and one-half cars — one of our most popular sizes, with standard service door and windows and ample storage space for bikes, lawn mowers, yard tools, and work benches.

Three or more cars — the best option for the owner who has multiple cars, boats, or other vehicles, additional storage needs, and room for a workshop.
