Features of 2-car Garage Plans

Standard Sizing

A two-car garage typically measures anywhere from 24×24 (576 sq. ft.)to 24×30 (720 sq. ft.). While these are the standard sizes, you need to choose a size based on the size of vehicles you wish to park and the additional storage requirements.

Access to Driveway

Two-car garages offer easy accessibility to the driveway with a clear path to the house and an option for side or front entry.

Doors and Windows

The plan for a two-car garage either features a single wide door or two separate doors and often automatic door openers. The addition of windows can not only add aesthetic appeal but also provide natural light and ventilation. 

Storage

Most garage spaces are planned to have additional space for storage along the sides, the back or sometimes with built-in shelving. 

Utilities

Two-car garages will also have essentials like electricity, plumbing, heating, and ventilation. 

Benefits of a two-car garage plan


Space

Most homes today have two cars or more so it is simply practical to build a two-car garage with some additional storage.

Convenience

An attached two-car garage offers direct access to the home, making it convenient for the owners to transport their valuables. It also keeps the vehicles safe and secure from adverse weather and other risks.

Organization

Having a dedicated parking space and storage in the garage enables owners to keep their tools, automotive supplies and other essentials organized.

Security

A 2-car garage offers security for your vehicles, reducing the risk of theft or vandalism.

Versatility

The garage also doubles up as a workshop area, creating an additional space for hobbies or DIY projects.

Future potential

The two-car garage space can be repurposed in the future to meet evolving family demands.

Saleability 

Homes with dedicated garage spaces attract a wider range of buyers and better resale value.

Types of Two-Car Garage Plans

 

Attached Two-Car Garage

These are built as an extension to the main property with direct access to the house providing ease of use and convenience.

Detached Car Garage

Detached two-car garages are freestanding and separate from the main house. The advantage is potential for expansion or additional features like a loft, a workshop or a guest suite.

Tandem Garage Plan

Tandem garage plans are ideal for narrow lots where cars are parked one behind the other.

Two-door Two-Car Garage

These types of garages have two separate, side-by-side doors for each car, reducing the risk of dents and scratches. 

Two Car Garage with Loft

Plans for two-car garages with a loft offer additional living space with a loft area above the garage to accommodate guests or double up as a home office.
