While garages may provide a potential solution to the problems that may arise if your car is stolen, they do have their own list of setbacks. One of the major setbacks can occur if you live in a climate that has very cold winters. In areas like the Northeast, for example, it may be difficult to open you garage on very cold days or after a snowfall, whether or not you have a garage door opener. Not having access to your garage, and thus, your car, may complicate your morning routine, making it more difficult to get to work on time for instance.
Garages, while serving the primary purpose of storing one’s car, can serve a host of other purposes, including but not limited to: storing items that do not fit in one’s home, functioning as a workspace, and functioning as a gathering space. A garage can be used for all of these purposes independent of whether or not one has an attached garage or one that is not attached.
In families that have more than one car, a two-car garage is normally preferred to the one-car model. With families that only have one car, a two-car garage would be able to serve as both a place to store one’s car, but also provide storage for excess clothing, toys, construction equipment, etc. Additionally, if you have a two-car garage and have only one car, there is never the struggle of trying to fit two cars into the garage on a daily basis. It can be difficult to fit two cars into a garage, depending on both the size of the cars and of the garage. If one car is parked in the garage and it is taking up too much space, when the second car comes, the first one may have to park again so that the other car has enough room to get into the garage as well, which, if happens frequently, can become very frustrating for those involved.
