Colonial Purlin Series – Versatile Outbuilding Timber Frame Kit
A modern take on the early-1900s carriage houses and backyard garages where people stored buggies, quietly welded axles by lantern light, and later tuned their Model Ts after factory shifts. Built tough, open, and surprisingly spacious in a modest footprint — perfect for a garage, workshop, man cave, storage with loft, or the start of a future cabin.
What’s Included in Every Garage Man Frame Kit:
Starter size: 12 × 20 (popular reference size)
Precision CNC-cut mortise-and-tenon joinery with hardwood pegs
Complete shop drawings (¼" scale) — one round of revisions included
All wood-to-wood fasteners
End-grain sealer on every cut
Shipping to your site
Pre-labeled components ready for raising
The design is fully adaptable — change roof pitch, length, width, or loft placement to fit your lot and needs.
