That's going to be an awesome garage! I want to extend my single to a double when money allows!

What height you going?
Flat or pitched roof?

I think we have built a house at the bottom of our garden Floor space is 42sqrM




The bit of wood against the scafolding is 1m!



the garage next door (light green roller door) is not a single garage, dont know what you call it but the door is basically single and a half

some ideas in the past....

Will wait and see what its really like inside as its actually a bit smaller now as we never took down the boundry wall :/ about 9" narrower i'd think.

quote:
Option 1:

basic option is two skyline sized cars with 500mm basic clearance all round (thats enough to get in out isnt it). Cars can be rejigged if needing to be worked on.

That will leave 1500mm at the rear for cabints/work bench and 1000mm at one side for decent access/storage. Thoughts?!



Full Size mofo - http://trackscotland.co.uk/gallery/albums/garage/design.png

Option 2:

room for 3 cars....

4 poster lift with car stored on and raised/locked. Car stored under and car parked along side. Will be quite tight but a good option for long term storage of 3 cars. Not really ideal if using cars and working in the garage daily. Reduces storage space a fair bit.

Option 3:

Prob the 'cleanest' option. 4 poster in the centre with lots of room all round. Ability to store 2 cars too. 1 car on, 1 car under.

The 4 poster is movable so an option for more day to day stuff compared to Option2.

I like the Idea of 3 cars in there, but the two cars with a lift is proabably best for working on them, RRS can live outside

I'm brewing an Option 4

Two ramps, slightly offset. I think there is enough roof height at the sides :S

Or Option 2.5 - Two cars + trailer
