    Choosing the Right Garage for Your Property

    Use measurements, not labels, to make the decision. Published sizes are outside footprints and do not guarantee a particular vehicle, workbench or storage layout will fit.

    Vehicle and clearance

    Measure vehicle width, length and height, then add room for opening doors and walking around it.

    Door openings

    The overhead door width governs entry. Confirm opening size separately from building width.

    Storage and future use

    Plan shelves, equipment and a work area now so the garage stays useful as needs change.

    Footprint and placement

    Confirm the available area after zoning, setbacks, easements and drainage are reviewed.

    One-car route

    Assembled delivery needs a practical path; otherwise discuss on-site construction.

    Two-car foundation

    Two-car garages are built on site and require a concrete foundation planned before construction.

    Foundation and site prep

    Foundations and site preparation

    Prepare the Ground Before the Garage Arrives

    A level, drained and accessible site protects the building and keeps the schedule realistic. The required support depends on the garage, soil, slope and authority review.

    • • Poured concrete slabs and foundations
    • • Gravel or road-base pads where appropriate for the building and approved by the authority
    • • Excavation, dirtwork, grading and site leveling
    • • Drainage planning, retaining work and access review
    • • Old structure removal and haul-away

    Permits and jurisdiction

    Garage Permits in Aurora, Colorado

    An Aurora mailing address does not determine permit jurisdiction. Verify whether the parcel is inside City of Aurora limits or in an unincorporated county area, then confirm zoning, setbacks, size and height limits, foundation design, electrical work and inspections for your garage. HOA approval is separate.

    City of Aurora

    For parcels inside Aurora city limits, start with the city’s permits and zoning processes—not county rules simply because your address is in that county.

    Unincorporated Arapahoe County

    The county Building Division serves unincorporated parcels only. Use its jurisdiction lookup and residential submittal guidance. This was the authority for our featured garage project.

    Arapahoe County Building DivisionCheck your Arapahoe parcel’s jurisdiction

    Unincorporated Adams County

    Confirm county jurisdiction and ask Building Safety for the current detached-garage checklist, design criteria and inspection requirements. Do not substitute a small-shed exemption for garage guidance.

    Unincorporated Douglas County

    The detached-structure checklist calls for site, floor, elevation, foundation and framing plans and engineered trusses. It also addresses drainage, driveway permits, zoning and HOA review.

    Douglas County barns, garages and sheds permits

    Official resources reviewed November 4, 2026. Requirements can change and must be confirmed for your parcel.

    Delivery and installation

    Garage Delivery and Installation in Aurora

    One-car garages: assembled delivery is possible when the route works. Plan a path about one foot wider than the building and roughly 16 feet of overhead clearance; review gates, turns, slopes, trees and wires. On-site construction is available for an additional fee.

    Two-car garages: our crew builds on site over your concrete foundation. Foundation readiness and permit inspections must be coordinated before construction.

    Free delivery covers fully assembled buildings within 150 miles of Penrose. One-car custom orders typically take 4–6 weeks assembled or 5–8 weeks built on site; two-car garages typically take 4–6 months, depending on permitting and weather.

    Aurora Garage FAQs

    Can I customize a one-car or two-car garage?
    Yes. Choose a footprint, doors, windows, roof and colors for a one-car garage, or discuss door configurations, shop layouts and finishing for a two-car garage. Our team confirms available options for your selected building.
    How much does a garage cost in Aurora, Colorado?
    Base buildings start at $8,314 for a 12×14 one-car garage and $25,996 for a 20×20 two-car garage in our 2026 Price Guide. Doors, foundation, site preparation, permitting, access work and tax can change the total. Our Aurora one-car project totaled $19,548.36 including tax—a historical example, not a standard quote.
    Do I need a permit to build a garage in Aurora?
    Plan on confirming a building permit for a detached garage. First determine whether your parcel is governed by the City of Aurora or unincorporated Arapahoe, Adams or Douglas County, then follow that authority’s current zoning and building requirements. Do not apply shed exemptions to a garage.
    What foundation does a garage need?
    It depends on the garage and the authority. Our two-car garages are built on site over a concrete foundation. The Aurora one-car project used a prepared road-base pad with a railroad-tie retaining wall because of its slope; that approach is not accepted for every property. See our site preparation services.
    Do you provide garage delivery and installation in Aurora?
    Yes. A one-car garage can arrive fully assembled when the route allows; we can build on site when size or access requires it. Two-car garages are built on site. Free delivery covers fully assembled buildings within 150 miles of Penrose; Aurora is within that radius.
    Can you prepare the site before installation?
    Yes. Our in-house crew offers dirtwork, excavation, grading, drainage, gravel pads and poured concrete foundations. We recommend the scope after reviewing the building, property and permit requirements.
    How do I know whether I need a one-car or two-car garage?
    Measure the vehicles, equipment, door openings and walking room—not just the building footprint. A 13-foot-wide building does not create a 13-foot door: our Aurora project used an 8×7 overhead door. Compare dimensions in our 1-car garage size guide.
