There is no uniform standard for garages, as the individual garage dimensions are usually determined by the size of the vehicle and the respective property. Even if some manufacturers base their models on the usual standard dimensions, there are garages in special dimensions for flexible design.
However, the right garage dimensions must always be chosen carefully. Nevertheless, determining the size of the garage is not too difficult. There are just a few important things to bear in mind. DE-PARK will help you make the right choice.
Which garage dimensions are ideal for my vehicle?
To determine the garage dimensions, you need to consider the following factors:
- the dimensions of the car
- the number of cars
- whether additional items are stored in the garage
- the size of the property
- Building regulations depending on the federal state
One of the most important questions when determining the garage dimensions is the vehicle in question. The height, length and width should be measured or checked in the vehicle documents. Don’t forget to factor in the length of the wing mirrors and measure how wide the car is with the doors open. After all, the garage should be wide enough for the whole vehicle. The height of the open trunk is also important.
If the space conditions allow, plan additional space on both sides. In addition to the dimensions of the car, it also depends on how confident the driver is when parking. How much space does the driver need to the left and right of the car? Sufficient space must be allowed for entering and exiting the vehicle. When driving at right angles, the length of the tramline should be at least 5.5 m.
Garages often also serve as storage space for bicycles, tools, the lawnmower and numerous other more or less useful items. If you are already building a garage from scratch or buying a finished one, keep this option in mind and take advantage of the opportunity if you already have a large area available for the garage.
Have a prefabricated garage or garage built?
If you have specific ideas about your dream garage, have a garage built to your individual dimensions. Whether made of steel, concrete or wood – the dimensions are adapted to your requirements. The advantage of a new brick garage is the flexibility and the possibility of using the garage for several vehicles or as storage space. However, the whole thing also has a disadvantage, namely that such garages are considerably more expensive than the finished ones.
Standard garage sizes
Even if the dimensions are not standardized, you can choose from a range of standard sizes. The standard dimensions for a single garage are 3 x 6 meters with a minimum external width of 2.5 meters. In addition to the parking space for your car, you can also plan for additional storage space when purchasing. Widths between 2.5 and 4 meters are possible. If the width is longer than 5 meters, it is referred to as a large-capacity garage.
The dimensions for a double garage for two vehicles are usually 6 meters. These garage dimensions can vary depending on requirements. A double garage is usually divided in the middle. Depending on the type of vehicle and your requirements, various combinations of garage dimensions are available to you.
