What is a Tandem Garage?

A tandem garage is a type of garage where one car is parked directly behind another, rather than side by side. It typically has space for two (or sometimes more) cars in a single, elongated bay.

Key Features:

• Single garage door: Often just one entry point.
• End-to-end parking: One vehicle blocks the other, so the car in front must move to get the rear car out.
• Space-saving: Useful on narrow lots or in urban areas where lot width is limited.

Pros:

• More parking in less horizontal space.
• Can be used for a car plus storage, gym, workshop, etc.

Cons:

• Inconvenient for daily use if both cars are used frequently.
• Limited access to the rear vehicle.
