What is the standard size of a parking space?

The standard size of a parking space varies from site to site. It also depends on if the parking is parallel or angled. However, in Australia, the average parking space is just over 5 m long and 2.5 m wide.

Which angle is best for car parking?

The best angle for car parking is between 45–60 degrees. This is because car parks at this angle are safer and easier to pull in and out of. Drivers also only need to think about one direction of traffic as they don’t need to pull into another lane, making them more efficient and safe.

What makes a good parking lot?

A good parking lot in Australia is accessible to everyone—including people with disabilities. Good parking lots also have enough space to ensure accidents are unlikely to happen. They also have multiple access points for pedestrians returning to their cars.

How to choose the best parking designer and installer for your project

Choosing the best car park designer and installer in Australia is essential when starting a building project. First, consider the qualifications of the designer and installer. Often installers will be registered, for example, to demonstrate they have the skills required to finish the building project. Parking designers may similarly be registered and often build up a reputation by working alongside architects. Looking at a professional’s previous projects, easily done on their ArchiPro profile, is another good way to decide whether they might be suitable for you.

Here are some useful questions to ask potential parking designers:

How long have you been designing car parks in Australia?
What parking design do you specialise in?

Do you have insurance in case something goes wrong?
