Garage For Life finishes a buildout on Kendrick Lane as Nexatherm checks the zoning for a U.S. headquarters
Where it is. On Kendrick Lane.
A commercial building at 1530–1540 Kendrick Lane has been built out for Garage For Life, and recent zoning checks point to a warehouse and light-industrial headquarters for a company called Nexatherm.
The property at 1530 and 1540 Kendrick Lane, owned by G4L Lakeland One LLC, has moved through a string of commercial permits over the past year. Those include a dumpster enclosure (finaled), a fire-alarm system, a right-of-way permit, and a roughly $900,000 interior buildout described as "Garage For Life Upfit." The buildout permit was issued in April 2026 and fire-alarm alterations were finaled in July 2026, so work on the space has been underway.
Three zoning verifications completed in 2026 describe the site as "Nexatherm U.S. Headquarters Warehouse & Light Industrial Operations." That language suggests a business called Nexatherm is looking at the property for a headquarters with warehouse and light-industrial use, but the records don't spell out the lease, the timing, or how much space is involved.
The records don't give an opening date, a square footage, or a job count. What's clear is that the building has been upfitted and that zoning questions tied to a warehouse/light-industrial use have been answered.
