Oak Framed Garages in Kent
Swift Oak is a Kent-based manufacturer of green oak frame garages and buildings. We design, cut, and deliver from our workshop in Lenham Heath, near Ashford — meaning shorter lead times, lower transport costs, and direct contact with the people building your frame from start to finish.
Made in Kent, Delivered Across the South East
Our workshop is in Lenham Heath, between Ashford and Maidstone in the heart of Kent. We supply oak frame kits throughout Kent and regularly deliver to East Sussex, West Sussex, Surrey, Essex, Greater London, and further afield. Being locally based means we understand the planning landscape in Kent — Conservation Areas, AONB land, and local authority requirements — and can help you navigate them.
Our Oak Framed Garage Range
We offer a range of garage and outbuilding styles to suit different plots, budgets, and planning situations:
- Standard gable garages — clean, traditional roofline, suits most residential sites
- Raised eaves buildings — maximum roof space, ideal where headroom or a room-in-roof is a priority
- Hipped and half-hipped eaves — a softer roofline suited to rural and heritage settings
- Open-fronted carports — covered parking without full enclosure, often Permitted Development
- Bespoke designs — any size, any specification, designed around your site
Green Oak — The Right Material for Kent
Kent has a long tradition of oak frame construction — the Weald of Kent and East Sussex was once one of the primary sources of oak for England’s shipbuilding and building industries. Green oak frame buildings suit the county’s stock of period properties, rural settings, and Conservation Areas particularly well. Planning officers across Kent are generally familiar with oak frame and respond well to its traditional character and natural materials.
