Hello,

does anyone have an idea how to extend the canopy of a precast concrete garage?
The garage is 9.00 meters (29.5 feet) long and 3.48 meters (11.4 feet) wide.
The garage already has a canopy that is 0.50 meters (20 inches) long.

It would be desirable to extend the canopy from 0.50 meters (20 inches) to 1.50 meters (59 inches).

Or did you mean "ordering a not yet existing garage with an even more protruding canopy"? - that would be a completely different matter, since there would be no need for any extensions; it could be planned that way from the start.
Then the interior length of the garage will be shorter. 9 m (30 feet) is allowed.

If the maximum length is fixed, meaning no exceptions can be granted and the limit is already reached without any extension, then that's just the way it is. This doesn't change simply because the desired additional length is added as an extension.

The garage does not exist yet. According to the garage manufacturer, 0.50m (20 inches) is the maximum possible overhang. I was considering possibly adding a glass canopy.

Not yet. If it’s not technically possible, then the matter is settled.

Technically, it is possible to add an extension or annex to a garage. However, this will increase the allowed 9 m (30 feet).

I would say yes to the garage, but no to the canopy.

That is not the maximum or final limit in all federal states.
