FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Everything you need to know about automated car parking — from capacity to compliance.
How much space can an automated parking system save?
Depending on the system, you can park 2× to 6× more vehicles in the same footprint compared to a conventional ramp-based garage.
How long does installation take?
Small stackers commission in 2–4 weeks. Puzzle systems take 6–10 weeks. Tower and shuttle systems typically take 4–8 months including civil coordination.
Are Parkonix systems safe during a power failure?
Yes. All systems ship with UPS-backed controls and manual recovery modes so vehicles can always be retrieved.
Do you provide AMC and spare parts?
We offer comprehensive AMC packages with 24×7 support, predictive maintenance and guaranteed spare availability.
What is the maintenance cost?
Typical AMC costs range from 3–5% of system cost per year depending on the system type and usage pattern.
Can automated parking support electric vehicles?
Yes. All Parkonix systems can be specified with EV charging points at every bay or a selected subset.
What are the civil requirements?
Every system has a specific civil BOQ. Our team provides detailed foundation, pit and clearance drawings during the design stage.
Do you handle statutory approvals?
We support your architect with all documentation, drawings and specifications required for local and lift-inspector approvals.
How is retrieval time optimized?
Our controls schedule cars intelligently based on usage patterns so frequently-driven vehicles are kept closer to the entry.
What warranty do you offer?
12 months comprehensive warranty on all mechanical, electrical and control components, extendable via AMC.
