Lift-Ready Two-Bay Garage & Shop Designed for Work, Storage, and Future Use
Custom Detached Garage & Shop in Calgary | Lift-Ready Two-Bay Design
This nearly 1,400 sq. ft. custom detached garage and shop was thoughtfully designed for a client who wanted far more than a standard outbuilding. Built on a reinforced foundation engineered to support a full car lift, the space was designed with both immediate use and future flexibility in mind — including the potential to convert into a secondary suite down the road. Inside, the shop features a full three-piece bathroom, dedicated storage areas, and a mezzanine level to maximize usable space without sacrificing floor area.
The structure includes extra slab thickening specifically designed for a vehicle hoist, along with custom electrical throughout, including over 16 high-output interior shop lights and 11 exterior lights for exceptional visibility and security. Two high-lift, oversized garage doors create a true two-bay workshop capable of accommodating larger vehicles and professional-grade equipment. The interior is fully insulated and finished with durable OSB wall panels, providing a rugged, highly functional workspace capable of supporting heavy racks, hooks, and equipment without compromise. This project is a perfect example of a purpose-built shop that blends strength, adaptability, and long-term value — built to work hard today and evolve for tomorrow.
