Car Condominium
Private bays that look like a club, not a rented stall.
Orton Companies builds car condominium buildings in Minnesota — multi-bay, collector-grade storage campuses with tall doors, security, and a finished presence from the street. We design car condos as commercial vehicle buildings: clear spans, climate-ready envelopes, and bay layouts that protect high-value cars without looking like a warehouse.
Who we build this for
Collectors, clubs, and developers who need deeded or leased bays — more refined than a single hobby garage, more private than a self-storage row.
What we offer
- Multi-bay plans with shared drive aisles or private entries
- Door height and width sized for lifts, trucks, and classics
- Security, lighting, and keyed or fob access
- Optional insulation and climate control per bay or building
- Club-house, lounge, or detailing-room add-ons
- Exterior that reads as a campus, not a metal shed
How we build it
Bay count and door package lock the structure. We plan circulation, snow storage, and security first, then wrap a Minnesota snow-load roof and a finished elevation around a clear-span interior.

ConceptThe process
01
Your site and how you will use it
Orton Companies walks the property, maps access, drainage, and utilities, and locks how you will use the building so it fits Minnesota code and your daily work.
02
Design and materials
We produce a clear layout, how the building will look from the street, and a steel-and-timber package sized for snow load, wind, and the way you will actually use the space.
03
Construction
A licensed crew sets posts or frame, encloses the shell, and finishes doors, roof, and interiors on a schedule built for Minnesota seasons.
04
Walkthrough
You walk the finished building with us, we close the punch list, and you get a space ready for equipment, animals, customers, or living — from the same team that designed it.

Questions people ask
Does Orton Companies build car condominiums in Minnesota?
Yes. Orton Companies designs and builds car condominium buildings in Minnesota — multi-bay collector storage statewide.
How is a car condominium different from a detached garage?
A detached garage is usually one household. A car condominium is a multi-bay campus — shared site, private bays, and a commercial-grade envelope built for collectors or lease-up.
Can each bay be climate-controlled?
Yes. We can condition the whole building or isolate bays. Insulation, vapor control, and door seals are designed for Minnesota winter.
Do you build car condos for developers as well as owner-users?
Both. Owner-collectors and small developers use the same Orton process — bay mix, security, and a site plan that works in snow.
Can a car condo include a lounge or detailing room?
Yes. Club rooms, restrooms, and wash or detail bays are common along a side wall so they do not steal the vehicle aisle.
