Building an RV Garage: Your Comprehensive Guide

Building an RV Garage: Your Comprehensive Guide

For an RV owner, there is nothing quite like having a custom garage for storing that RV. Leaving an RV out in the weather throughout the year is certainly possible, but it’s not quite ideal – the rig may wear down faster than it would otherwise if it has to deal with the elements day after day.  

If you have been thinking about building an RV garage on your property, this is the page you needed to find. We’ll cover some of the basics of this project below so you feel prepared to take the next steps and actually bring the garage to life.  

When the time comes to build the new RV garage, American Steel Carports, Inc. should be your chosen partner. We have tons of experience in this space and offer a Build & Price tool here on our site for you to create the ideal custom design. You can also contact us directly at your convenience to learn more.  

What Are the Benefits of an RV Garage? 

Before we talk about the key components of designing and building an RV garage, it’s important to stop for a moment and touch on the many reasons to take on such a project. With the points below in mind, you’ll have all the motivation you need to get this project started right away.  

  • Protection from the elements. It’s a huge benefit to be able to park your RV indoors when it isn’t in use. This will mean that any storms that come through your area – or just persistent rains – won’t be wearing out your RV as the months go by. That can help you avoid costly repairs and, in the end, should allow you to get a longer useful life out of the RV for the duration of your ownership. 
  • Security upgrade. Not only will your RV be protected from the elements, but it will also be hidden from anyone who might have bad intentions. RVs can sometimes be targeted by thieves who might be hoping that valuable items are contained inside, but it will be much harder to target your RV when it is parked in a garage.  
  • Comfortable maintenance. Do you like to perform some basic maintenance on your RV from time to time without taking it to a shop? If you do that kind of work, having a garage will be a nice luxury so you can enjoy working on the RV without being outside. Depending on where you live, this may make it more viable to handle maintenance tasks throughout the year, rather than just having to do them during the nicer months.  

Steps to Building an RV Garage

Now, let’s get to the business of actually bringing your RV garage to life. The first variable you want to sort out is the size of the RV garage in all three dimensions – height, width, and length. The height of the garage needs to be sufficient to get your RV in and out with a bit of room to spare, and the width of the door needs to easily accommodate the rig, as well. 

As you are planning the length of the building, make sure to remember that you probably want some additional room for storage or working on the RV, so pad your dimensions to where the RV isn’t squeezed into the space without an extra inch to spare.  

It’s also critical to work with a company like American Steel Carports, Inc. that is always going to exceed your quality expectations. It would be a shame to build an RV garage on your property only to find that the materials and construction aren’t ready to stand the test of time. Invest in quality from the start and you’ll be happy with your garage for many years to come. 

RV Garage Customization 

In addition to quality, another reason to go with American Steel Carports, Inc. is the ample customization options we have available. You will be able to easily choose your color scheme for the building, for example, in addition to the dimensions and shape of the building, as well as much more. Also, you may want to add a walk-in door to the design, so you can come and go without having to open up the large roll-up door each time.
