ᐅ Garage Height – Which Floor Construction to Use (Height Issue)?

We have a small height issue with our garage.
The garage is planned to be only 2.25 meters (7 ft 5 in) high.
If 6 cm (2.4 inches) of screed is added on top as shown in the plan, the height will be reduced to just 2.19 meters (7 ft 2 in).
I am currently planning the driveway so that at least a 2.125 meter (7 ft) door can be installed.
However, the screed thickness is causing problems with the installation height.
What would you recommend in this situation?
I was thinking about either grinding the concrete slab smooth and sealing it (with a coating, etc.) or installing tiles without screed (with an underlay mat?).
Is something like this feasible?

I completely agree with Wickie. This is a garage, not a living room, so a bit of dirt (or discoloration) on the concrete floor doesn’t bother me. And yes, with sealed garage floors, puddles will form in winter when you park a snow-covered car inside. I have seen this myself quite often in tiled garages. Personally, I wouldn’t want that.
But as always, it’s a matter of personal preference! And that’s the great thing about owning your own property—you can do it however you like best.

I assume that’s a joke For an everyday car, it’s probably not an issue since it’s parked a little differently every day. But I wouldn’t want to leave a summer car parked crooked for months on end.
