Garage Kits are an Inexpensive way to invest in a New Structure



Garage kits come with detailed instructions to make it easy for do-it-yourselfers to assemble their own structures. There are a few steps to follow when building from garage kits.

The first thing to do is to decide on the exact size and design and get a quote with engineered plans. In some places, submitting the plans to the local council for approval is required. The site then needs to be excavated and prepared for electric and plumbing and the footings need to be placed or a slab poured. Then, the frame is assembled, the cladding is applied, and the internal provisions and fit-out is completed.

The method of installation and the complexity of the instructions will vary according to the structure type, size, choice of footings and accessories. There are eight main steps:

1. Clear the land
2. Prepare the concrete slab or install alternative footings
3. Attach the sheeting to the frame
4. Erect the wall, prop it up and put braces on either side
5. When the walls are up, the gable end framings, roof purlins and rafters can be installed
6. Fix the apex and knee braces, roof sheeting and gable wall cladding
7. Complete the main structure with cappings, flashings, downpipes and any other finishing touches desired
8. Finally, install the windows, doors and any other accessories that were selected

Garage kits are a low cost way to get a high quality garage and can be easily put up by anyone who has the skills to assemble the parts.





The types of garage kits available can include the following:

• Single, double, triple or multiple car garages
• Custom garage
• Drive through garage
• Enclosed garage
• Enclosed garage with garaport
• Garage with garaport and lean-to
