With winter right around the corner, Pennsylvania homeowners have to think about where they will store their vehicles during snowstorms. If you live in a home with no garage, building a detached garage from Glick Structures is the best way to protect your vehicles and other belongings this winter. Detached garages have many advantages, including protection, additional storage or working space, increased home value, and more. Below, we have listed all the reasons why you should buy a detached garage for your home.
Vehicle Protection
The largest benefit to having a detached garage is the covered parking it provides. They will keep your recreational vehicles, including cars, motorcycles, bikes, ATVs, snowmobiles, and more, protected from Pennsylvania’s harsh winter weather. Detached garages are especially convenient if you have multiple vehicles that need to be safely parked. You could even use a two-car garage to have one side be for your car, while the other be equipment storage for your car repairs. The second space is beneficial if you need an area to work on repairs and maintenance. To further protect your vehicle, we recommend attaching locks and other security measures to the garage.
Extra Storage Space
While you can use the garage to house your cars, you can also use the space for some storage that doesn’t fit in your house. It gives you a designated space for outdoor storage, so you can keep equipment, gardening tools, outdoor furniture and cushions, and more in your garage. With this storage, you’ll be able to declutter the main house and make your belongings more organized and easily accessible. We recommend getting a garage with a loft space or second floor for additional storage, or even use the extra space as a guest room.
Versatility
A detached garage doesn’t have to be limited to storage. We’ve built garages that have been used for workshops, studios, home gyms, offices, and more. They give a private space to work on projects away from the house, serving the unique needs of every Pennsylvania homeowner. Even after years of using the garage for storage, you can easily convert it into a functional space. Since the structure is away from the main house, any noise and fumes from your projects will be mitigated, which is beneficial for homeowners who do a lot of woodworking and car maintenance.
Custom Options
At Glick Structures, our garages can be fully customized to fit your needs. Your garage can be a certain size, layout, and style that meets your requirements for storage or a workshop. Our team can add workbenches, shelves, pegboards, and more to the garage to provide optimal storage capabilities for your belongings. We can even add an overhead loft space to store seasonal items out of the way to declutter the space.

Increase Home Value
Detached garages increase the curb appeal and resale value of your home, making them a valuable investment. Having a detached garage will give you a better return on investment when you look to sell your house. Detached structures are often high on potential buyers’ lists of needs. A garage will add another functional feature to your property, as buyers tend to look for homes with additional storage and parking. Our team can build your garage to have the same styling as your home to complement it and enhance the overall aesthetics of your property.
