Apex Garages

An apex garage takes its name from the distinctive V-shaped roof, a popular pitched design that’s graced British properties for many generations. But apart from the traditional good looks, this triangular profile serves a practical purpose.

Rain and snow slide straight off the angled surfaces, eliminating the pooling problems that plague flat roofs, while the peaked centre gives you plenty of headroom, making these structures genuinely usable for more than just parking.

From secure vehicle storage to workshops and overflow storage, apex garages provide the durability and flexibility modern households often need. Our Lidget Compton range offers multiple sizes, door styles, window options, and finishes to match your exact requirements.

Why Choose an Apex Garage?

Superior Weather Protection

The pitched roof of an apex garage really earns its keep in British weather. The angle forces water to run off immediately rather than sitting around looking for gaps to exploit. Snow can’t build up either, as the slope naturally sheds weight before it becomes a problem.

Increased Headroom & Storage

The apex peak creates an abundance of much-needed space. You can stand upright down the centre line, making these garages comfortable to work in. Many owners install storage platforms in the roof space, using every cubic foot available.

Classic Aesthetic

Apex garages suit almost any property style. The pitched roofline echoes traditional British architecture, sitting naturally alongside houses rather than looking like an afterthought.

Ventilation Benefits

Hot air rises to the peak and can escape through ridge vents, while cooler air enters below. This natural circulation reduces condensation, preventing damp problems that ruin stored items.

Durability (Concrete Foundation)

Lidget Compton apex garages use reinforced concrete construction that laughs at the elements. Fire can’t touch it. Termites ignore it. Rot isn’t possible. You’re looking at 50+ years of solid service.

Key Features of Our Apex Garages

Solid Concrete Construction

Each sectional panel contains steel reinforcement embedded in high-strength concrete. Walls resist everything from accidental knocks to break-in attempts. Fire resistance comes built in, which is crucial if you’re storing fuel or using power tools.

Apex Roof Design

Roof pitch varies by model. Steeper angles shed water faster and provide more height. Material options range from corrugated steel to tile-effect systems. All include anti-condensation treatments.

Wide Range of Sizes

Our single apex garages start from 8ft x 6ft, with most people opting for 10ft x 16ft or larger. Double apex garages begin around 14ft wide. Lidget Compton manufactures up to 26ft x 28ft as standard, with bespoke sizes available.

Door Options

• Up-and-Over Doors: Hörmann canopy doors with multi-point locking
• Personnel Doors: 3ft wide for quick access without opening the main door
• Roller Shutter Doors: Electric operation suits restricted sites

Window Options

The PVCu windows on our apex garages need zero maintenance while providing great security. Most Lidget Compton apex garages include one window free, positioned exactly where you want it.

Internal Finishes & Options

Plasterboard lining: For a clean, professional finish that’s ready for painting or decoration
Insulation options: Maintains comfortable temperatures year-round, reducing condensation and energy costs significantly
Sealed concrete floors: Dust-free surface that’s easy to clean and resistant to oil spills
Electrical installation: Power points and LED lighting transform dark storage into a bright, functional workspace
Workbenches and racking: Maximise organisation with heavy-duty storage solutions fitted to your requirements

Security Features

Apex garages are built for security. Reinforced concrete panels resist break-ins, while deep-bolted door frames and multi-point locking make forced entry tough without specialist tools. There’s plenty of space for your car and extra storage, all kept safe from opportunists.

If you want extra peace of mind, PIR security lighting floods the area when anyone approaches, while our optional alarm systems alert you to any tampering attempts that may occur.

Versatile Uses for Your Apex Garage

Installation & Base Requirements

Base Preparation

Your apex garage requires a level, reinforced concrete base that’s slightly larger than the building. You can use your own contractor, or we can provide specs and recommend trusted groundwork specialists. Prefer a hands-off approach? We can handle the whole base construction at a competitive rate.

Professional Installation

Lidget Compton’s own factory-trained teams handle your installation. Most single-apex garages go up in just one day, minimising disruption to your routine. They load at the factory, deliver to your home, and build on-site with their own equipment.

Delivery Process

Articulated lorries will deliver all apex garages, free of charge (to most areas). Check site access early, as overhead cables and narrow gates may cause problems!
