An automated parking garage is a machine-driven, mechanically operated system designed to minimize parking vehicles’ space and/or number. As with a multi-level parking garage, an APS offers maximized space for multiple automobiles stacked in multiple levels vertically to maximize the available number of parking spaces whilst also minimizing land use. A multi-level parking garage is usually located above other structures on a pavement surface. They are commonly found in commercial and residential areas where retail stores, department stores, fast food outlets, and other similar businesses often use the space. They are also used to minimize the amount of space needed when installing facilities such as swimming pools and other in-ground water features.
With an automated parking garage, there is increased security for your customers and improved convenience for you. By eliminating the need for you to stand at the entrance to your building or business and look down at the number of vehicles parked in your parking space, you will be able to concentrate on your customers. Not only that, but your customers will appreciate your freshness as there is no more need to manually drop off your car and pick it up again. Also, as you will be able to see what vehicle is in front of you and check the parking space to ensure that no vehicle is blocking the entrance, you can quickly identify any potential problems and solve them quickly before they become larger issues.
In addition to providing increased security, automated parking garages provide greater convenience for you as a business owner. In addition to having maximized space and convenience, your customers will be able to locate and exit the units without running around or climbing over ladders. This reduces the risk of them getting injured when exiting their vehicles, which is especially important if they have children.
Many automated parking garages are used to protect commercial and industrial vehicles from vandalism. As these structures are completely enclosed, potential vandals cannot view the contents of the parking spaces and therefore cannot gain access to them. As well as protecting commercial and industrial vehicles, they can help reduce the costs involved with storing these vehicles. Not only that, but by ensuring that the vehicles remain safe and secure and that the surrounding areas are free of potential damage, you can help to improve the safety of the immediate vicinity.
A luxury condominium is also a perfect location for an automated parking garage. In fact, most luxury condos feature all the amenities needed for an efficient parking facility, including large car lots and valet services. You can also take advantage of the advanced technology found in some of the luxury condos to provide your parking facility with the security and safety that it needs.
