Almost Complete

[kkenney]

Lift went in the other day.did my first oil change on the new lift. Lift is a mohawk A-7 with under ground line kit. I added 24' to my exsiting garage making it a total of 20' x 48'.Front half of the garage has 8'6" ceiling height back half has just over 14' ceiling height. waiting on epoxy floor (Stonhard flooring) and cabinets Thinking of getting Baldhead cabinets.

Wow nice job! that really is a neat garage set-up ya got there!

 

[Lawnman]

Very nice garage - you should be proud. Really like the shelf over the cabinets. Amazing how large it all looks with the 14' ceiling. Keep posting more pics!

 

[Kevin54]

A little bit of jealousy here

Very nice and very clean

What's on the top loft area? Tablesaw and compound miter saw?

 

[930dreamer]

I just serviced my Jeep transmission on the ground again. Great garage you have there.

 

[kkenney]

Yes table saw and miter saw

 

[yellow wagon]

wow! Very nice set up!

 

[G Speed]

that's a cool garage... more so the layout.. can you post a pick of the outside? is't attached to your house or?

 

[TAMPAGT07]

Everything looks good, except your thread title, "Almost Complete." Actually, a true GJer is, "Never Complete." There is always going to be more to add/change. It's a journey not a destination. And when the good lord takes me you will have to pry the tools out of my rigor morticed hand, and you'd beter use the proper tool to remove them, or you will go to straight to Hell.

Yes attached to a three bedroom ranch here is a couple of pistures of the front of the house

 

[jgoglick]

Great looking garage - I like the cabinets.

 

[uniongoon]

Man!! Do you have a hand sanitizer for visitors? Maybe a hospital sterilizing machine for the tools? , very nice.

 

[Hardware]

Very Cool. love the shelf above the work area. Might have to steal that idea.

 

[kkenney]

Here is a picture of the back of the house

 

[Tracy & Diane]

You have a great place there. Definitely a place to be proud of and most importantly, a place to enjoy. Please post any updates.

 

[kkenney]

added some more cabinets and work bench

 

[4StarCstms]

Very Nice!!

 

[Motown 454]

Wow awesome job. Beautiful cabinets, and set up nicely plenty of storage. You have a nice place to work.

 

[UN4GTBL]

That is an awesome garage!!

i assume that it was supposed to be a 4-car tandem garage? i really like what you have done with it. You have given me some inspiration!

 

[kkenney]

No I had a two car attached garage and I extended it 24' to have the lift and a place to work.

 

[TAMPAGT07]

Very nice and spotless, kkenney. Keep us updated.

 

[purpony]

love it! Id like to do the same to my attached 26x26. Im thinking that would be alot cheaper then building a 3.5 bay detached....

only problem is, my gable is going the opposite way, and if i came off the back and would have to turn the gable 90 degrees which is no big deal, but i would be removing the back wall that my trusses sit on.... so i am guessing i would have to install a large main beam.

 

[MScott]

Did you use scissor trusses for the addition? I am wondering how you got an extra 3 and a half feet of ceiling height without changing the roof line. Any pics of the construction? Also, since the roof line is the same height as the main house, and it appears that the house floor is about 2 ft. higher than the garage floor, I would have expected the front part of the garage to have more than 8 ft. 6 in. ceilings.
The reason I am questioning this is that I am in the planning stage of a house/attached garage and want to have 12ft. ceilings in the garage. If I raise the house 2 ft above the garage floor, I will still need to use scissor trusses to get the ceiling height I want unless the garage roof is 2 ft higher than the house. (Same house/garage orientation as yours.)

Very nice space you have there. Well done and professional in appearance. Looks great.

 

[On Edge]

What an awesome space. I love the cabinets and man to have that much head height to have a lift in there. The garage attached to the house looks good too.

 

[Dan0myte]

You've got a fantastic garage, but there's no sports cars parked inside. What gives?

 

[Jokeman]

Very nice, what type of cabinets are those?

 

[drmoonshine]

Great Job. The lighting makes me like it.

 

[JMURiz]

Awesome addition, total 'sleeper' garage...looks like a plain 'ol garage until you get into it and WOW.

Love it!

 

[kkenney]

I also had to reverse my gable

 

[kkenney]

Wood with formica to match

 

[kkenney]

The house is two feet higher then the garage you have about four steps to enter the house. Also the first half of the garage is Attic for storage and i cut a opening thru to the attic above the house no storage on that side.Also the attic stairs are placed in the center so you can enter the attic with out moving cars

 

[kkenney]

sports car will come soon

Thank you, that explains it. Beautiful job, by the way.
