A garage is dimensioned by the vehicle plus the door you need to open beside it, and one-car garages are not disappearing — they were nine percent of new single-family completions in 2024, the highest share in three decades. The other constraints are the separation between the garage and the dwelling, the slab, and where the door header lands. The templates here cover a one-car, a two-car, a tandem, and a two-car with a workshop bench along one wall. Vehicle stalls are drawn at real size with the door-opening clearance beside them.
The wall and door separating a garage from the dwelling are drawn to the fire-separation requirements cited on each sheet.
4 templates, 264 to 720 sf. DXF R2018, drawn in inches. Free, no signup.
DWG (R2000, converted from the DXF and round-trip verified). PNG is the plan-view render.
One 10 by 20 ft parking stall with an overhead door, plus enough room around the car to open a door and walk past. About 12 by 22 ft.
The sheet carries the fixture clearances as drawn geometry on their own layer, with the dimension strings and room notes outside the walls.

"Verified" means the citation was checked against the source text we hold. "Unverified" means it has not been, and should be read as a pointer to look the section up rather than as a quotation of it.
18 of 76 checks graded, zero defects. This template is published because it graded clean.
A single room on its own sheet is not a whole building, so the checks that grade a floor plate — exit counts, circulation share, fixture counts against an occupant load — have no subject here. They are listed rather than counted as passes.
Two 10 by 20 ft stalls with a 30 in gap between them so both driver's doors can open. Twenty-two by twenty-two feet is the number that has been standard for fifty years.
