These prefabricated building kits include highly-detailed blueprints, premium framing materials, windows, doors, connection hardware, and builder support services. If you’re looking for something a bit different, our flexible design capabilities allow you to make structural modifications to your kit, including adjusting the building height and width to meet your needs.

Designing a Garage or Workshop Perfect for Any Climate
We design structures all over the country, which means our garage and workshop kits are crafted to withstand all types of weather conditions. Being in the heart of Oregon’s thriving lumber industry gives us access to the highest quality heavy timbers from the Pacific Northwest for our garage and workshop kits. Known for their durability, these timbers keep our structures strong and stable for generations. When made with the best materials and methods, you can trust that your structure will be a beautiful and practical year-round workspace, no matter where you live.

When designing a workshop for your property, you can select from hundreds of options and upgrades to find the perfect building materials for your space. You can also add exterior design elements, including cupolas, heavy timber trusses, and decks, or make structural adjustments to your building like expanding the size or height of your structure.

Our post and beam garage and workshop kits are framed with premium quality heavy timbers sourced from the Pacific Northwest. Our location in Portland, Oregon gives us exclusive access to some of the region’s best timber exports, including select grade Douglas fir and Western red cedar, so you can experience the beauty of the Pacific Northwest right in your workshop space.

Our relationships with America’s top-rated suppliers of doors, windows, and equestrian equipment makes it easy for you to select the highest quality materials for your design, from Nantucket dormers for added headroom to Classic Equine stall fronts for your horse barn.
The Process
At DC Structures, we prepare every client for a worry-free construction process with highly detailed plans and an unparalleled prefabrication system. During our prefabrication process, the framing lumber used to create your exterior walls, floor components, and roof are pre-cut, drilled, slotted, and labeled to precision using our CNC woodworking machine. Efficient by design, our pre-engineered building packages ensure that no materials are wasted, and each package is built much faster than a conventional structure. Prefabrication also ensures that our clients receive a top-quality structure while enjoying a streamlined framing process that takes 30% to 50% fewer framing man-hours than conventional builds.
