Understanding Clearance in Automated Parking Machines

Understanding Clearance in Automated Parking Machines

When designing automated parking systems, it’s crucial to account for the varying dimensions of vehicles to ensure smooth operation and optimal space utilization. Here, we will discuss the average clearance for ground levels, second floors, and upper/pit levels, along with examples of vehicles that fit within these parameters. Remember, these dimensions are customizable to fit the specific needs of each project.

Ground Level Clearance

  • Height: 7 feet
  • Length: 17 to 18 feet
  • Width: 7 feet 10 inches

Examples of Vehicles (Modern, within the last 5 years):

  1. Toyota Camry: Length 16′ 1″, Width 6′ 0″, Height 4′ 9″
  2. Honda Accord: Length 16′ 3″, Width 6′ 1″, Height 4′ 9″
  3. Nissan Altima: Length 16′ 3″, Width 6′ 0″, Height 4′ 9″
  4. Ford Fusion: Length 16′ 5″, Width 6′ 2″, Height 4′ 9″
  5. Chevrolet Malibu: Length 16′ 1″, Width 6′ 0″, Height 4′ 8″
  6. Toyota Highlander (SUV): Length 16′ 4″, Width 6′ 4″, Height 5′ 8″
  7. Honda Pilot (SUV): Length 16′ 7″, Width 6′ 5″, Height 5′ 8″
  8. Ford Explorer (SUV): Length 16′ 8″, Width 6′ 5″, Height 5′ 10″
  9. Chevrolet Traverse (SUV): Length 17′ 0″, Width 6′ 8″, Height 5′ 9″
  10. Chrysler Pacifica (Minivan): Length 16′ 11″, Width 6′ 4″, Height 5′ 7″

Second Floor and Above Clearance

  • Height: 5 feet 4 inches
  • Length: 16 feet 8 inches
  • Width: 7 feet 10 inches

Examples of Vehicles (Modern, within the last 5 years):

  1. Mini Cooper: Length 12′ 7″, Width 5′ 7″, Height 4′ 6″
  2. Fiat 500: Length 11′ 7″, Width 5′ 9″, Height 4′ 11″
  3. Mazda MX-5 Miata: Length 12′ 11″, Width 5′ 8″, Height 4′ 8″
  4. BMW i3: Length 13′ 1″, Width 5′ 9″, Height 5′ 0″
  5. Smart Fortwo: Length 8′ 10″, Width 5′ 1″, Height 5′ 1″
  6. Toyota Camry: Length 16′ 1″, Width 6′ 0″, Height 4′ 9″
  7. Honda Accord: Length 16′ 3″, Width 6′ 1″, Height 4′ 9″
  8. Mazda CX-5 (Crossover): Length 15′ 4″, Width 6′ 1″, Height 5′ 4″
  9. Subaru Outback (Crossover): Length 16′ 1″, Width 6′ 0″, Height 5′ 5″
  10. Kia Sorento (Crossover): Length 16′ 9″, Width 6′ 3″, Height 5′ 5″

Upper or Pit Levels Clearance

The clearance for these levels can vary between the ground level (7 feet) and the upper levels (5 feet 4 inches). This flexibility allows for a broader range of vehicle sizes to be accommodated.

Customizable Dimensions

It’s important to note that the dimensions provided are examples. At Trivial Company, our machines can be customized to be slightly longer, taller, shorter, or narrower to meet the specific requirements of each project.

Conclusion

Automated parking systems are designed to optimize space while accommodating a variety of vehicle sizes. By ensuring adequate clearance, these systems enhance functionality and convenience for users.
