    Detached Garage Questions/Build

    I still like the idea of the drive thru doors being 14x14 and the lift door being 10x10 but I think I will run out of space and have to shrink the 14x14 to maybe 12w x 14h and the other door to roughly 8 or 9 wide. I figured I could hold the doors off either side just shy of 3'. the only thing I...

    Detached Garage Questions/Build

    So I got some stuff from the architect, and it was exactly how I originally had it.

    Detached Garage Questions/Build

    Hello all, Been lurking on this forum for a little while now but I think the time has come to finally start my detached garage, so this is my first post. So far I have it nailed down to 30x40 with 3 garage doors. Figured I'd try and keep this updated and use this thread to show the build and...
