Stoltzfus Structures helps clients think through the details that matter most, including size, garage door placement, siding selection, color combinations, windows, roof style, interior layout, and delivery planning.

The 10’ high walls give the garage a more spacious feel and help create better clearance for vehicles, tools, shelving, and equipment. The first floor includes four 24x36 windows with shutters and a 12-inch gable overhang. These details help give the building its carriage-style appearance, add natural light, improve curb appeal, and help the garage feel more like a finished residential structure.

Delivery planning is very important because the 2-Story Carriage Garage is a large two-leveldouble-wide structure. A properly prepared and level site helps the garage sit correctly and prevents possible settling issues.
