Project G28 — the garage that started The Garage Guys

This is our own villa garage in Jumeirah Park, transformed exactly the way we’d do yours. No showroom, no stock photos — a real Dubai garage, finished and photographed.

10-second walkthrough

Where it started

A standard Jumeirah Park double garage doing what most Dubai garages do: storing heat, dust and a pile of things nobody could find. Bikes leaning against walls, boxes stacked on the floor, one ceiling light doing its best. This is it mid strip-out, before anything nice went in.

The redesign

We measured everything and planned the space around how the family actually lives: bikes used daily on one wall, a mezzanine overhead for once-a-year storage, cabinets and a workbench beneath it, a clean route from car to kitchen, and AC so the space works in summer.

The build

Electrical upgrades first, then AC, then walls and epoxy floor, then the custom-welded bike racks and mezzanine platform, and finally motion-sensor lighting inside and new external lighting at the entrance.

The result

A cooler, cleaner, properly organised garage: every bike on a rack, every tool in its place, seasonal stuff overhead, two cars still inside, and a floor you could eat off (please don't).

Feature by feature

What we built, up close

Every one of these is a service we offer on its own. G28 just happens to have all of them.

  • Colnago road bike hung on a custom welded steel wall rack in the G28 garage
    Custom welded bike racks

    Steel racks welded to fit the bikes the family actually rides — nothing off the shelf.

  • Gloss black cabinets with a timber workbench under a slatted timber mezzanine soffit with track lighting
    Cabinets & workbench

    Gloss black cabinetry, a solid timber worktop and track lighting under the mezzanine.

  • Close-up of the timber workbench top, drawer handles and yellow-and-black safety bar
    Workbench detail

    Timber top, soft-close drawers and a safety bar protecting the switchgear.

  • Welded steel access ladder to the mezzanine storage platform, beside the arched louvred door
    Mezzanine & ladder

    A welded access ladder to the storage platform overhead — seasonal boxes off the floor for good.

  • Four road bikes stacked two-high on wall racks beside the parked car in the G28 garage
    Room for every bike

    Racks stacked two-high so every bike is off the floor and easy to grab — and the car still fits.

  • Road bikes on wall racks with the open garage door and lit driveway beyond
    Entrance & external lighting

    New external lighting at the entrance and a clean route from the driveway in.

  • Wide view of the finished G28 garage: air-conditioning unit, epoxy floor, bike racks and mezzanine with cabinets beneath
    AC & epoxy floor

    Split AC keeps it usable in August; the epoxy floor wipes clean in seconds.

  • Two cars parked inside the finished G28 garage with bikes on the walls and storage overhead
    Still fits two cars

    All that storage, and both cars still park inside. That was the whole point.

Full scope

Everything that went into G28

One garage, every service on our list — which is exactly why it makes such a good test bed.

The team (and the van)

The Garage Guys are a small, hands-on Dubai team — the same people who quote your garage are the ones who build it. Joey did the electrics and AC, Roel welded the racks, ladder and mezzanine, and Vincent painted the lot.
