Congratulations on your new horse property! my current barn was an existing garage that we converted into a barn and added a side porch. the barn is a metal structure with regular framing. the interior was finished in drywall that i covered with 3/4" plywood to 8' height.. My mom and i were talking about turning our three car garage into a barn.its connected to the the house though. is it possible to convert a garage into a barn? the ceiling also has to be high enough for a horse to raise its head fully. how big is the garage( eg. 1,2,3, or 4+ cars)?. We are continuing the messy project of converting the old shed into a horse barn. the floor needed raised up 10 inches or so to keep the horse out of the water when it rains..
Turning garage into a barn user name: remember me? if a horse in the garage reared up and smacked one of the glass panes in the garage door, it would be a mess. great tip about removing garage door re head safety. the garage door is old-would probably trash it and if i wanted to convert it back to a garage later would buy a new one. In this case the mulligans converted their carport into a horse barn but with a few adjustments it could become a barn for just about any kind of livestock. without the stalls it would be even a less expensive easier project for a garage.. A drive through the country isnt complete without seeing a beautiful barn. us city kids are a bit deprived when it comes to seeing rustic beauty, c'est la vie. i have stumbled onto this idea for turning a carport into a barn that will bring a little bit of the country to the suburban life. it is a great idea and much easier to fit by the house than a full sized barn..
