Finally got round to getting a new garage built and taking a photo.



Righthand side is for bikes and motorbike, lefthand is for the car I now can't afford after paying for the garage.

Done by the same guy that built edo's
Nice job!

Great looking garage, inspires me to tidy mine up a bit and see what can be done - looks a bit like your "before" photos at the moment hehe

Love the Aston, any more pics??
Thanks, yes loads, I've put a few on the 'period looking classics' thread but here's one I particularly like smile

Making progress when the roads were empty back in 1959?

Whilst out cycling earlier today I saw a chap washing his car by his very smart garage and then it occurred to me that I'd seen that garage somewhere before - it's edo's newly built one.

I stopped for a little natter and I must say it does look great. Top job! thumbup

Crickey, when you said you were local, I didn't realise you were that local!

Any suggestions (other than here) for inspirational website for a single garage? sunken lifts, funky shelving/lighting etc... trying to get an idea of what's available with a limited space.

cheers

Has anyone any experience with changing the roof construction on a modern brick built garage?

Ours is the usual pre-made "timber triangles" which although they give good storage limit available height....I'm wondering if they can be replaced to allow me height to put in a 2 or 4 post lift so I can store 1 Caterham above the other.

Suppose it's a bit like doing a loft conversion biggrin

www.garagestoragecabinets.co.uk though to be fair I'm not sure about sunken lifts and funky shelving. Maybe try Ikea for the latter wink
