WANT TO SPEAK WITH AN EXPERT?
We supply a wide range of oak frames all across the UK.
Our Rigorous Technical Standards
Our wooden double garages with rooms above are crafted from the finest green oak and Douglas-fir timber. These are materials celebrated for their strength, durability, and ability to withstand the elements. Grown on a designated and responsibly managed site in France, the trees we use are also cultivated to be tall, straight, and for structural integrity.
Truly Sustainable Products
Our cultivation process maximises the amount of wood we can use in our timber frames and minimises waste. For every one of these trees used in crafting an oak-framed building, three more saplings will be planted to replace it, keeping our work sustainable for the environment and more competitively priced.
When the wood then reaches our site, our team of trained and qualified timber graders will ensure the pieces are of premium quality. Any that fail to meet our standards will then be recycled, keeping our process as eco-friendly as we can make them.
Crafting Frames With Tailored Precision
Frames for all structures are engineered using a combination of time-tested techniques and modern precision through state-of-the-art machinery. With bespoke design options available, frames for garages are also fully customisable, offering versatile layouts that suit a wide variety of needs, from vehicle storage and workspaces to leisure areas.

The Benefits of Using Oak Frames Direct
Oak Frames Direct offers products of the highest quality, designed and built in adherence with sustainable principles. We believe this dedication sets us apart from our competitors in several ways:
- Sustainable Oak: We build our double garage kits with beautiful green oak, sourced from a specially selected site in France. We prioritise sustainability in our oak frame buildings, planting three saplings for every tree used. This helps to ensure that we can continue to make our oak buildings for many years to come.
- Thorough Wood Grading: All wood is checked by our team of timber graders when it arrives at our UK workshop. Weâll utilise state of the art technology to carefully check for warps, cracks, and faults. Any wood that could impact the structural integrity of our garage kits is responsibly recycled.
- Precision Cut: Our carpenters use specialist equipment to cut each piece of oak in our kits, ensuring accuracy. This provides two clear benefits, ensuring a straightforward build process and contributing to the long term integrity of our garages.
- Q-Mark Certified: The Q-mark is an industry-leading certification from BM Trada. All of our products are Q-Mark certified, showcasing the exacting standards they are built to. The Q-Mark on all of our garage kits demonstrates our commitments to quality and sustainability.
Will You Need Planning Permission for a Two Storey Garage?
As the height of your oak-framed double garage with a room above will be over 4 metres it is likely that you will need to apply for planning permission to build it. Buildings over 4 metres do not fit the parameters of permitted development. Oak Frames Direct can help you with your planning permission application if needed, so donât hesitate to ask us for assistance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can the room above the garage be used for living space?
Yes, the room above is fully customisable and made for versatility of use, including as a home office, guest room, or additional living or storage space. With enhanced insulation and high-quality materials, it provides year-round comfort.
Do I need planning permission for a wooden double garage with a room above?
In most cases, planning permission is required for larger structures such as garages with upper rooms. We recommend checking with your local planning authority for more information, and we can assist by providing low-cost planning drawings if needed.
What makes green oak or Douglas-fir ideal for these garages?
Green oak and Douglas-fir are both renowned for their strength, durability, and resistance to the elements. They provide a natural, sustainable, and beautiful finish that only improves with age, making them ideal for long-lasting structures that need a touch of sophistication.
Are there any maintenance requirements for the structure?
The timber frame itself requires minimal maintenance due to the durability of the wood. However, we recommend treating wooden joinery and keeping the gutters clear to ensure the structure remains in perfect condition for years to come.
