This is an actual 1920s design from a mail-order garage made by the Gordon-Van Tine Co. You could find garages like this all over the country. Our model will allow you to build the garage as shown with a half-hip roof, or with a conventional gable roof (not shown). We also include an alternate garage door in the kit in case you'd like a more modern look. The tri-fold garage doors were considered "fancy" at the time and most have been replaced with overhead-hinged or roll-up doors for use with automatic garage door openers.

Key benefits

• Slot and tab construction simplifies assembly and provides perfect alignment each time.
• Ultra Shingles™ come as a single peel and stick sheet with a photographic image of rows of shingles. These fool even the best of modelers.
• Details like the trellises, carry-through beams on the ends, and rafters.

Variations

• Hip Roof: Can be built with conventional gable roof or with the hip roof as shown above.
• Side/Back Door: One of the small windows on the side or back can be replaced with the included door.
• Window Position: The side and back windows can be installed either in the closed or open position.
• Garage Door: The main garage door can be installed in the closed or open position. Additionally, we include a separate overhead-hinged door for a more modern look.

Here is the more modern roll-up door, along with a conventional gable roof. It also shows a door instead of a window on the side.		The folding doors can also be built in the open position so you can detail the interior and/or have a vehicle partway inside.
