7mm vs 10mm: Which Thickness Do You Need?
Choose 7mm When:
- Primary use is domestic garage (car storage, DIY, light workshop)
- Traffic is mainly foot traffic and occasional vehicle movement
- Equipment is standard garage tools, not industrial machinery
- Budget efficiency is a priority
- Clearance under garage doors is limited
Choose 10mm When:
- Heavy equipment or machinery will be used
- Forklift or HGV traffic is expected
- Maximum impact absorption is required
- Commercial or industrial application
Why 7mm Is Ideal for Most Garages
Most UK domestic garages don't need industrial-grade 10mm tiles. The 7mm thickness handles:
- Car and motorcycle storage: Daily driving in and out
- Trolley jacks and axle stands: Routine maintenance tasks
- Tool chests and workbenches: Standard garage equipment
- Dropped tools: Impact absorption for everyday accidents
The 7mm profile also provides practical advantages:
- Door clearance: Less likely to interfere with garage doors
- Transition height: Smaller step at doorways
- Cost efficiency: Lower material cost for same coverage
Complete Oil & Chemical Protection
The 7mm tiles use identical closed-cell PVC construction as our 10mm range – providing complete fluid barrier protection:
| Engine Oil | ✓ Full Resistance |
| Brake Fluid | ✓ Full Resistance |
| Coolant | ✓ Full Resistance |
| Petrol & Diesel | ✓ Full Resistance |
| Degreasers | ✓ Full Resistance |

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 7mm thick enough for a garage?
Yes. 7mm is ideal for most domestic garages handling car storage, DIY work, and standard garage equipment. Only upgrade to 10mm if you have heavy machinery or commercial/industrial loads.
Can I drive my car on 7mm tiles?
Absolutely. 7mm tiles are designed for vehicle traffic. Cars, motorcycles, and vans drive on and off daily without any damage to the tiles.
Will a trolley jack damage 7mm tiles?
No. Standard trolley jacks and axle stands work fine on 7mm tiles. The load rating handles typical garage maintenance equipment without compression damage.
Do 7mm tiles have the same oil resistance as 10mm?
Yes. Both use identical closed-cell PVC construction. Oil resistance, chemical resistance, and fluid barrier properties are the same regardless of thickness.
Will 7mm tiles clear my garage door?
Usually yes. The 7mm profile is less likely to interfere with garage door clearance than thicker alternatives. Measure your current clearance – 7mm plus optional ramp edge is typically 10-15mm total.
Can I mix 7mm and 10mm tiles?
Not recommended. Different thicknesses create a step hazard. Choose one thickness for your entire floor for safety and appearance.
How long do 7mm tiles last?
20+ years with normal garage use. The virgin PVC construction and UV stability ensure long-term performance without degradation.
Are 7mm tiles slippery?
No. R10 anti-slip rating means the textured surface maintains grip even when wet or contaminated with oil.
Can I install over painted concrete?
Yes. Tiles install over any hard surface including painted concrete, bare concrete, or existing floor coverings. No removal or preparation required.
