How Car Turntables Work
A car turntable is a rotating platform that allows vehicles to turn 180 or 360 degrees in a confined space. Installed in driveways, garages, or commercial properties, these turntables eliminate the need for complex reversing manoeuvres. The system is powered by an electric motor and can be operated via remote control, making parking effortless.
Applications of Car Turntables
Car turntables are widely used in both residential and commercial settings. Homeowners with tight driveways or garages benefit from improved accessibility, allowing them to drive forward onto the street instead of reversing into traffic. In commercial spaces such as car showrooms, valet parking areas, and industrial sites, turntables help optimise parking efficiency and enhance safety.
Customisation and Design Options
Car turntables can be customised to fit specific needs, with different diameters, load capacities, and surface finishes available. Standard sizes range from 4.5m to 5.6m in diameter, accommodating most vehicles, while larger turntables can be designed for commercial applications. The platform can be finished with materials such as concrete, steel, or even tiles to match its surroundings.
Why Choose a Car Turntable?
Installing a car turntable not only improves convenience but also adds significant value to a property. It enhances safety by reducing the risk of accidents caused by reversing into oncoming traffic. Additionally, many local councils encourage or require forward entry onto roads, making a turntable an ideal solution for properties with limited turning space.
