Building a 3-Car Garage to Fit Your Car Comfortably

We are often asked when designing custom homes, “Will our car fit comfortably in our garage?” The answer typically depends on the size of the car and the dimensions of the garage. 

When our clients get to use their three-car garage after their custom build is complete, they often wonder how they lived without it before. A great garage will be used practically daily and it increases your home’s property value, so it’s a terrific investment. 

SO, HOW DO I KNOW IF MY CAR WILL FIT COMFORTABLY IN MY GARAGE? 

Measure your car to find out the dimensions of the vehicle. You can also look in the owner's manual or look up the information online. If you can, we recommend going bigger. You’ll be grateful you did since there will be extra room for storage, a work bench, or a clean up area. 

WHAT DIMENSIONS DO YOU RECOMMEND FOR A 3-CAR GARAGE?

Our average 3-car garage is 22’X32’ but we like to go bigger when space allows. We can also incorporate a loft storage area, a workspace, a cleanup space, and a closet for the hot water into your 3-car garage design. 

We have even added office spaces to garage plans for our clients. The professionals at Creative Home Designs can incorporate solutions to meet your specific needs into your custom 3-car garage. The sky's the limit, what would make your garage space more functional and useful? 

WHY MIGHT I CONSIDER A 3-CAR TANDEM GARAGE?

Tandem means one behind the other. Our clients love 3-Car tandem garages because they allow room to park two cars, one behind another. 

We use these in the case that a lot may not be wide enough to incorporate a traditional 3-bay garage. Tandem garages are great for narrow sites. You can park 3 cars in a 3- car tandem garage or the third space may be utilized as a work zone.
