We bought a new house many months ago, and the house needed a ton of work. The "house" part of our remodel is almost over, and now I'm making plans for the garage. I actually can't believe I haven't but more thought into this yet as one of the primary reasons we (or I (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) liked the house is it has a big 2-car garage AND a big 3-car garage. And a big yard. Yay me.
Without benches or storage, I think 10 914s would actually fit in the 2 garages (tandem). So... What do you think of my layout plan? Any other ideas below. The most space I've had to work with before this was a 22x20 2-car garage. 1. LIFT - We have to do some concrete work in the garage now anyways, so I think I may put some type of scissor lift in the floor. The ceiling is flat and only about 8.5' or 9.0'. - Any lift recommendations? - What needs to be plumbed into the lift? Just power or ? (I'm just starting my research now) - Do you think the center position is the best for the lift? 2. BENCHES. What do you think? Benches as I drew along the top, or benches in the bottom stall? That closet has to stay there. Any ideas or inspiration? Thanks! -Steve Attached thumbnail(s) |

Nice garage, Steve! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/drooley.gif)
I'll be gearing up for some garage modifications at our new place soon, so soaking up all the ideas brought up in this thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) Our new RV garage has very high ceiling, so I'm planning on some adding lighting low along the walls illuminating the underbelly of anything that's on the 4-post lift (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) Can't wait to see your project finished with the new doors (IMG:style_emoticons/default/popcorn[1].gif) |
