I am going through this now, and it really depends on the location. Back in the olden days people didn't have garages in the city or very small ones, the issue is today almost everyone has one. Some cities think we still live in the 1950s and want to keep the same trends today. If you build a...

This. End Thread.

This is an interesting thread. Couple things that come to mind: 1. Freshly washed and detailed car and then you will leave it outside to get dirty in the rain. 2. Safety of having your cars inside. 3. Protects the paint and leather from sun damage. 4. It's easier to check tire pressure when the...

Re: My (New) Neighbors Probably Hate Me...But That's Okay - My “Dream” Garage Build What a transformation! Awesome work. The only 2 downsides I see right off the bat are: 1) You still have to go outside to get into your house. 2. Your driveway is very narrow, even narrower in the winter.

You guys are lucky! Here in the city all of our trees are protected, you need a permit to take them down and they can deny the permit. The city can charge you anywhere from $500-$100,000 for even damaging one, not even taking it down! Crazy I tell you, bunch of tree huggers.

Wow, that would never be allowed in US or Canada. The rain water will go into the neighbours yard!

Seems a lot of the newer developments are tight. I have seen some in my city as deep as 18ft! That is really short! Like everyone has said, figure out what size cars you have/want to buy. Also plan to build a shed somewhere on your lot, that will get rid of all the other non car stuff. I am...

Love all the hard work you put into this! I am curious though the dimensions of the garage and the doors? How big is the indent at the back? Thanks

Awesome garage thread! I might have missed it, but what Is the approx width/depth, garage door sizes? Thanks!

Wow I am jealous sir! I would have kept the double garage as well so that I could store more cars, that would give you 6 bays ;) You must live out in the suburbs to have that size garage though! Ever thought about a 4 post lift?

How wide is your single door? 8ft i'm guessing?

Awesome house and sweet 3 car garage! Colour scheme is nice too. What are the dimensions of the garage and doors if you don't mind me asking?

Nice work! What are you going to be doing with the 2 windows that are now looking into the garage? Is there a code where you live that allows windows into the garage area even with the exhaust gasses?

Beautiful! Congrats on the build! Would you mind providing the dimensions of the garage and the doors? Width and height? I am planning a 3 bay garage pretty similar to yours. Thanks.
