Garage on Shirland Road, W9

Very small garage! You can barely get the car in, and if you can, you can't get out of the car. And my car isn't even big, it's an Evoque.

Understand JustPark is a broker for the parking spots. The problem was this was a very narrow spot and entrance. It wasn't until after I had paid for the non-refundable spot that I was informed about that limitation and the dimensions. I have an average size car which just barely fit (1" space on both sides). Most people would not have been able to park there.

Good location and easy to find. Only issue was the previous user put the padlock on the wrong way so really tricky trying to put in the combination code in and undo the padlock.

The space was advertised as 159cm wide. I could get my Vauxhall Corsa into the garage but it was so cramped I couldn't get passed the retracted wing mirrors. I had to abandon the parking and find another parking option.

I was initially skeptical about this parking space due to some of the reviews, but I decided to book it anyway as I was desperate for parking. I want to share my honest experience to help others, as I feel some reviews may not have been entirely accurate, which made me hesitant to book. Car Size Let’s start with the size of vehicles that can fit in this garage. Saloon cars? Definitely not. However, smaller vehicles like mini cars and small family hatchbacks should fit without any issues. Keep in mind that everyone should exit the car before parking because there won’t be enough space inside. Also, you can only exit via the driver’s side door and the rear passenger door directly behind the driver. Parking Technique To park inside, you’ll need to be confident in reverse parking. Not everyone is comfortable with this, but I managed it by reversing closer to the left side of the garage, staying near the wall. This gave me enough room to open my driver’s door and even the boot to collect my belongings without any difficulty. Folding Mirrors If your car has folding mirrors, you’ll need to fold them in just before entering the garage. Once inside, you can unfold them to continue reversing. For cars with manual folding mirrors, I recommend folding them before you start reversing to save yourself the hassle. Lock Mechanism The garage door is secured with a coded lock located at the bottom. It’s easy to use—just input the code and pull back the small lever on the right-hand side to unlock. When leaving, make sure to scramble the code to lock it securely. The parking space felt safe to me, and it was easy to locate. Conclusion This parking space is perfectly usable as long as you have basic reverse parking skills and apply some common sense. Vehicles like a Ford Fiesta, BMW 1 Series, Vauxhall Corsa, SEAT Leon, or smaller should fit without any trouble. For added peace of mind, you can bring an extra padlock, as there are two additional slots available for securing the door.

It is the tightest parking spot ever. But for the money l, can't complaint. I have BMW 1 series and fit tight and need to slight turn to left to get out of the car. Not for everyone though. But for the money, it's worth and safe and it's locked garage.

Car space booked could not even fit a small car in the space… why arnt the spaces checked

all good although the padlock is bit fiddly

This was a TERRIBLE experience. The lock was very low down on the ground. It was on back to front and I had to get down on the ground to operate it. The lock was old and rusty and it was very difficult to put the code in. And when I did put the code in the lock wouldn't open so I couldn't use the parking - ended up paying a fortune on the street parking nearby. I contacted customer support for a refund and they said the owner of this space has refused to give me a refund. Do NOT book this space.

Parking was so bad that I didn't even use it
