FAQ - Automated Parking System

How does an automated parking system work?

The driver leaves the car at the entry station, and the system uses lifts, shuttles, and transfer cars to park it automatically.

Yes. Vehicles remain locked during transfer and are protected from theft, vandalism, and collisions.

They require less space, reduce emissions, and improve safety and efficiency.

Yes, automated parking systems can be integrated into both new projects and refurbishments, depending on architectural constraints.

From a few dozen up to thousands of spaces, depending on project scale and design.
