Vastu Tips For Garage
The location of the garage is one of the
first considerations you need to make. Ideally, car garage

If the car is placed in the west side of the
northwest positioned garage, be prepared to undergo a lot of
traveling. Very rarely would the car remain in the garage.
For a car parked in the southwest corner, it
would require minor repair work.
The floor level of the garage would be an
inclined one, sloping towards the north or east direction.
The size of the garage should be such that a
minimum of 2 to 3 feet of walking space should be left after
parking the car inside. This would also ensure the movement of
light and air in the garage.
Make sure that the car shed does not touch
the main building or the compound wall.
Parking the car in the northeast direction is
a strict no-no. Since northeast is deemed as the access point
for heavenly forces, a car parked herein would obstruct the
forces. However, if you the garage in the basement, parking in
the northeast area is permissible.
Remember, a garage in the southwest would
mean rare usage of the car. Your car would rarely come out of
the parking space and would require constant repairing.
At the time of parking, always park your car
with its front portion facing the north or east. This would
ensure that the car would never get overheated.
In case you park your car facing the south or
west side, chances are that your car might face fire hazards.
Ideally, the gate of the garage should face
the north or east direction. Make sure the height of the
garage gate is not more than the main gate of the wall. Also,
it should open freely, i.e. there should not be any hindrance.
The path where the garage gate opens should
be clear, allowing easy accessibility for the car's movement.
As for the colors of the garage, white,
yellow or any other light color is considered auspicious for
the garage.
Do not store any waste material or
inflammable material in the garage, lest chances are that
these might cause unnecessary harm to the garage.
Vastu For Portico
For those who have less space, constructing a garage will
not be possible. As such the best bet would be to construct a
portico for parking the car.
The location of the portico should be in the north or east
of northeast in the plots facing north or east directions.
Make sure that the portico does not touch the main building.
Constructing pillars away from the main building with
cantilever roof would be an ideal scenario.

auspicious for businessmen while east facing car is good for
politicians, administrators and government officers.
