Garage construction in the house block – what is worth to remember?

The garage built is not only a safe place for the car that will protect it from theft or bad weather, but also an excellent storage for tools, bicycles, garden equipment and furniture, and even a pantry. This is an additional space that can make life much easier, so its construction in the body of the house is worth planning at the very beginning.

A functional garage should suit your specific needs. It should be large enough to contain not only cars, but also additional equipment, as well as allow free movement on it. In addition, it should be insulated, have sound insulation, protection against gas permeation to other rooms of the house and provide constant air exchange (so ventilation is necessary), have a fire protection system and drains to the sewer. Of course, it must be big enough to fit a car. The choice of garage door will also depend on its depth. To install a sectional door in the garage, remember that it will move along the guides, which will be mounted under the ceiling. So, you need the right amount of space.

For the garage entrance to be as simple as possible and not require many maneuvers, factors such as terrain, plot shape, place of entry onto the property and type of gate should be taken into account and the garage location planned accordingly.

The right design will not only allow you to place the garage in the right place, but also save space on the plot, which for many can be very important. Additional space above the garage is a great opportunity to arrange the room or utility room, but also the terrace.

A garage in a house also requires a proper door. According to the regulations, the garage door should be at least 2.3 m wide and at least 2 m high. In addition to the technical aspects and the aforementioned depth, it is worth remembering the aesthetic aspect and matching its appearance to the façade and style of the house.
