The first floor works well as a true detached garage, giving clients protected space for items that should stay out of the weather and off the driveway.This garage is also a good fit for clients who have outgrown their attached garage or basement. Instead of spreading tools, boxes, equipment, and seasonal items throughout the home, the 2-Story Gambrel Garage creates one organized space with vehicle access below and a flexible area above. 

Homeowners often choose the 2-Story Gambrel Garage for: 

• Long-term storage of seasonal décor, hobby supplies, sports equipment, or tools 
• An office space, art studio, workshop, or hangout space 
• Vehicle and valuable equipment protection 
• Parking more than one vehicle

The taller sidewalls in this garage help create a more open garage feel and provide room for larger equipment, shelving, and storage along the walls. Dormer options are especially valuable on the 2-Story Gambrel Garage because they can help increase the usefulness and appearance of the second floor.

Before delivery, homeowners should review the building location, driveway access, turning space, and more, so a smooth setup can occur. A level and properly prepared site helps the garage sit correctly, without the worry of extreme settling, and gives the finished project a flawless appearance.
