spiral staircase but a gate for a forklift to send things up to

I built my dream garage which holds 8 cars comfortably (2,300 SF). Suggestions of things to do now (because you will wish you did them later): Put in at least a half bath; lots of lighting and receptacles, putting some recessed receptacles/plugs around all the walls about 6 to 7 feet off the ground, this will allow you to plug in neon signs without seeing electrical cords running down the wall; polyaspartic floors, professionally installed, in a light to medium color flake combination; set aside a seating area where you can sit with buddies and watch a big screen TV. Also, if you can, build yourself an office area distinct from the parking area....you may want to have it on a separate hvac line/thermostat so you can keep the office area where you spend time more comfortable (cooler or warmer) than the rest of that huge space and save some money on HVAC costs. It will be interesting to watch your progress.

Tyler, you can send those SDM airbag modules out to several companies online to get reset/reprogrammed for under $100. I buy, fix, and sell salvage cars, this is what I do. No need to get a new one.

Assuming this is your forever home (and forever garage), I wouldn’t recommend putting in a spiral staircase in.

Depending on the configuration of your doors, run the mezzanine like an "L" over the lower door an d construct your stairs between the two doors. This is always dead space. By doing that, you can simply drive in, stop next to the stairs and offload stuff from your vehicle directly to your stairs. Much easier than trying to maneuver a vehicle to carry stuff. In the centre you can also explore a hoist across half the garage - 1 column in the centre between the doors, and over the mezzanine. That way heavier or bulky items can be lifted straight off the vehicle and moved upstairs. A 1000 pound hoist crane should be ok. Check for concrete thickness and reinforcing, but if its ok for a car lift it should be good to go. Btw - i am a retired civil and structural engineer if you wondering..... And an insane petrolhead

Upvote this comment that's what I would do too..

From a farmer in the Dakotas, theres some things you should do to your shop while you still have the chance. 1st, I know you feel you don't need a bathroom, but if you're going to have a workshop and maybe even a lounge area you need a bathroom, you'll thank yourself later when you don't have to walk to the house everytime. You don't need a shower, just a sink and toilet. This is one of the biggest regrets with our old farm shop. Not to mention having running water in front of the building to wash cars off would be very nice. A hot water spigot is a great addition too if you'd put a water heater in. 2nd, for lights I'd highly highly recommend Hyperlite high bay halo lights. We put 14 150W lights in a 104x50 building and theyre fantastic, they'll light up your shop even better with the white insulation everywhere. Theyre in a bare cold storage building with a dirt floor on our's, and you'd think it was daytime inside. They also don't seem bothered by bitter cold. I've turned them on in -20 weather and they flipped right on. 3rd, put radiant heat in. It keeps a shop so much warmer in the winter than forced air. All the warmth doesn't blow out the door when you open it like it tends to with forced air. 4th, whatever you're building for a storage area, make it bigger than you plan, if you can. We built a 8'x16' parts room that is now overflowing with consumables, oil, filters, and parts. We actually plan to add another 8' this summer if we can. Granted ours is a farm shop, but the same will apply to a collector I am sure. I can't wait to see how your building turns out.

Tyler, you should do a simple restroom in you shop. As you get older you will find that the need really gets in the way of the fun.

Isn't that what the back of the garage for . You don't have to worry about installing plumbing,water and Wiring. If a number 2 is the situation then you walk to your house.

Paint a small bit of it white on the floors. As an aircraft mechanic, it’ll help you find bolts when you drop them. Also be a nice space to work because the white will reflect light upwards a little bit.

If you're going to be opening the big doors a lot, do a radiant heater. Little bit more up front, but FAR FAR more economical in the long run. Once it's in and running, they heat the objects in the room which then radiate heat into the room. So your cars themselves stay warm and heat the air. Vs a forced air system where you're simply heating the air and hoping it drifts around and heats other things. Big thing is that WHEN you open the doors, the cars (etc) don't get instantly cold - they keep radiating the stored energy as heat.

Nice to see the new garage. If I may make a suggestion. You could turn your needs for parts storage, office/kitchen/bathroom, mechanics tools into modules. Used shipping containers make it easy to convert them off site, then wheel them into your garage and park them along that wall. Use the roof of the containers for additional storage. If you needs change just swap the module you want to change. Just my two cents.

The beginning of a new era from the Summer of 2023 to now! Great Progress!

Brian seems like such a nice person. I could easily live in his garage. So many awesome trinkets to look at (once you're done with the cars)!

My brother and I had a shop for a few years and it was very close to the same size as your new hangar. Believe me, it will fill up QUICK. It looks big but once you have an office and a workshop/lift in there, you won't have as much space as it seems. If you plan to store all you cars in there, be smart about space allocation.

I have a shop, little 30x30 that is 20 feet from my house. I will say 150% put at least a toilet and sink in. I ended up adding a bathroom on the back and wish i would have started out with it. I aint gonna disagree with including a kitchen area. Over the last 30 years we of course had the beer fridge from the start but now have a corner that has a gas stove, microwave, and toster oven. Planning on another add on to move all that out of my way in the shop.

If you fitted solar panels to the roof, you'd be able to power all the AC you'd ever desire over the summer time, as well as power your farm house too, you could even get battery storage & backup and never pay electric bills over the summer and into the winter as long as the sun shines

Tyler, you can paint the doors with special thermal reflective paint that lowers the temp by 20*-40*. You could paint the building but you'd really have to save up for that since the paint is rather expensive. You could just paint the side of the building that gets the most afternoon sun. You can also plant things like dwarf bamboo to shade the sides of the building. I'm not sure if that species can survive long Winters though. It's good since it grows fast and isn't messy like some conifers.

Excited!

Congratulations Tyler, the new garage hangar looks fantastic.

You can buy them with clear protective coating and they would be cheap and easy to replace if damaged and the base plastic sheeting is covered. Obviously you would only place a single panel all around to keep control of cost. Warmest Regards - David from Melbourne, Australia 🥸👌🍷🍷❤️❤️🦘
