Sometimes referred to as double garages, the 2-car garage plans featured at The Garage Plan Shop are detached garages designed to store two vehicles. Like home plans, they are available in a broad range of architectural styles, including Craftsman, modern, country and traditional. In addition to a variety of styles, two-car garage plans come in a multitude of sizes giving you plenty to choose from in order to find one that will fit on your lot. The exteriors of these designs feature various rooflines such as gable, reverse gable and hip. In addition, several exterior finishes like brick, siding and stucco work together with different overhead door styles creating an array of exterior combinations for the most stylish looks, but if you want to keep your original door then you might as well get a quick garage door repair to keep it functioning as it was when it was brand new. These are just some of the things to consider if you’re planning to build a double garage with the help of a residential additions contractor.

Many 2-car garage plans incorporate convenient features like a handy service entry or a storage space inside. Other thoughtful features include a workshop, upper level loft or drive-thru bay. Boat owners might consider two-car garage plans designed with extra deep bays nicely accommodating a boat or trailer without being cramped for space. For those who only need sheltered parking for one vehicle, a 2-car garage design still can be practical. Simply use the second bay for storage of lawn and garden supplies, the recycling center, the family bikes or mechanics tools. Others might opt to use the second bay for a workshop or craft area. The possibilities are endless. Flexible and functional, detached 2-car garage plans will complement and add value to your home when situated in the backyard or on the side of your house.
