Location of the car in the garage

The correct location of the car in the garage is of great importance for the safety and convenience of its operation. Here are some basic recommendations on how to place a car in a garage:

Alignment of the car in the center:

• The car should be parked in the center of the garage so that there is enough space on both sides to open the door and access the car.
• Use markers on the floor (lines or special guides) to navigate and park accurately.

Keeping a safe distance to walls:

• The distance from the car to the front and back walls must be sufficient to avoid damage when parking or when leaving the garage.
• It is usually recommended to leave about 30-50 cm to the wall or equipment placed in the garage.

Using mirrors or rear view cameras

• If the car is equipped with a rearview camera or sensors, they can help avoid hitting objects and walls.
• For mechanical garages, you can install mirrors on the walls or use special parking sensors.

Storage area and trunk access:

• Leave space behind the vehicle to open the trunk or access the rear seats without obstruction.

Orientation of the car (forward or backward):

• Parking backwards in a garage can make exiting easier, especially if the garage has limited visibility.
• If the garage is small, parking in front may be more convenient for precise control of the space.
