Doghouse Systems



Doghouse Systems
A doghouse, known in British English as a kennel, is a small shed commonly built in the shape of a house, intended for a dog. It is a structure in which a dog is kept or can run into for shelter from the elements. Doghouse is commonly a builder/contractor term for a dormer. The name is derived from the appearance of improperly proportioned dormers, which do resemble dog houses. A properly proportioned dormer should neatly fit over the window it is meant to frame. A common mistake is to undersize the windows or oversize the dormer, which necessitates the use of siding or other infill material with the structure treated as a gable end. Some architects use the word "doghouse" in a derogatory manner to indicate an ignorance of "honest" building practices often found in low-cost residential and light commercial, developer-built structures.
