For the users of these two employee garages in the North East of the United States, finding a parking space won’t be a problem again, because ParkHelp’s ultrasonic counting system tells them precisely on which of the ten floors they are most likely to find an open space to park.

The larger the parking garage, the easier to find a parking space. Sounds logical, but in practice, it’s not always the case. Especially in highly demanded parking lots, where there are just as many cars as free spaces – or even more. If on top of that, everybody is looking for a space at the same time, parking garages can easily become a source of stress and congestion.

The pandemic has made working from home a standard for many positions. If your job can be done with a computer and internet access, you may be allowed to work from anywhere. However, there are still many positions that need the employee to be at their common workplace. Add non-flexible schedules, and you get saturated employee parking garages at shift starts.

Now, imagine that situation in a ten-floor parking facility with hundreds of employees driving through the building, ramps up, ramps down. Wouldn’t it be nice to know, at least, how many spaces are still available on each floor? Well, ParkHelp has a solution for that: Why not use a level-counting system?

Vehicle counting systems – Keep track of the number of vehicles in your facility

That’s what happened in the employee parking garage of a major pharmaceutical company in the North East of the United States. ParkHelp’s ultrasonic pass counters are under-the-roof sensors placed strategically in spots like access lanes or ramps, where they can keep track of all the vehicles that pass through. The sensors send the collected data to the system and to an outdoor monument sign, where drivers can check where to find parking before entering the garage. The system administrator can see the occupancy status of the parking garage at any time, and get stats and reports, through ParkHelp’s Parking software ParkManager.

We say thank you for your trust and congratulations! The pass counter system is a brilliant, cost-effective, and accurate choice. Now, hundreds of employees and visitors of the company are going to find a space quickly, avoiding stress, needless emissions, and delays.
