How to Measure a Parking Spot (Before You Park or Build)

Width, length, and door-swing clearance, three measurements that tell you if your car fits, or that help spec a custom garage.

Standard parking spots are 2.5 m × 5 m, and many cars are now wider than 2.0 m. For tight commercial garages or your own home, measure before you commit.

왜 측정하나

  • Will your car fit (especially SUVs and pickups)
  • Door swing clearance to neighbouring vehicles
  • Driveway dimensions for new builds
  • EV charging cable reach

준비물

  • iPhone with Ruler AR
  • Length mode

단계별 안내

  1. Width. Tap each painted line of the parking spot. Standard 2.5 m. Compact spots 2.3 m. Wide (US disabled) 4 m.
  2. Length. Tap front line to back line. Standard 5 m. Long spots (limousines, pickups) 6 m.
  3. Door swing. In width direction, your car door opens about 70-90 cm. Cars wider than spot width - 100 cm: doors will hit neighbouring cars.

  • Garage spots: also measure ceiling height for roof racks
  • EV: where will the charging cable need to reach? Plan accordingly.

흔한 실수

  • Forgetting door swing, fits the spot but can't exit the car
  • Ignoring ceiling for garages with roof boxes/kayaks

자주 묻는 질문
