   The term ‘Dwelling Extension’ in a homeowner policy is also commonly expressed as ‘Other Structures’.   The amount of property insurance listed under Coverage B on your policy is usually 10% of the amount of insurance you have chosen for the main structure – Coverage A.   The Dwelling Extension or Other Structures feature covers all structures that are are either attached to your home, as with a connected garage or otherwise situated on the property, such as  separate storage shed, gazebo, etc.  
   The 10% can be increased based upon your needs.
