Car Parking System Supply and Installation in Kenya

Managing vehicle parking efficiently has become one of the biggest challenges for property owners, developers, and organizations in Kenya’s urban areas. Whether it’s a commercial building, residential apartment, shopping mall, or office complex, unplanned parking leads to congestion, unauthorized access, and wasted time.

To solve this, BoardTac Solutions Kenya offers complete car parking system supply, installation, and integration services, designed to automate entry, exit, and payment processes while improving security and traffic flow.

Understanding Modern Car Parking Systems

A car parking system is an automated solution designed to manage vehicle movement, access control, and payment operations within a parking facility. It replaces manual ticketing and gate control with technology-driven systems such as Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR), RFID access, QR code entry, and smart barriers.

These systems are ideal for:

• Commercial office buildings and business parks
• Shopping malls and retail complexes
• Hospitals and schools
• Gated communities and residential apartments
• Public and private parking lots
• Hotels and airports

The goal is to create a seamless, cashless, and secure parking experience — both for drivers and administrators.

Key Components of a Car Parking System

A well-designed parking system consists of multiple integrated components working together. Below are the essential parts included in a typical installation by BoardTac Solutions Kenya:

1. Automatic Barrier Gate

This is the physical arm that opens and closes to control vehicle access. It can be operated manually, remotely, or automatically through ANPR, RFID, or QR systems. The barrier ensures only authorized vehicles gain entry or exit.

Features:

• Fast opening/closing mechanism (1.5–3 seconds)
• Remote or automatic operation
• Manual override in case of power failure
• Durable, weather-resistant construction

2. ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) Camera

This intelligent camera captures and recognizes license plate numbers automatically. When a registered vehicle approaches, the gate opens without the need for manual input or tickets.

Benefits:

• Enables ticketless and contactless parking
• Records entry and exit times for billing
• Reduces fraud and unauthorized access

3. RFID Access Control System

For residents, staff, or registered users, RFID cards or tags can be used for fast access. The system reads the RFID tag as the vehicle approaches and automatically triggers the barrier.

Ideal for:

• Apartments and gated communities
• Corporate offices and institutions

4. QR Code Entry System

Visitors or short-term users can scan a QR code generated at the entry terminal or sent digitally. The QR code is linked to time tracking and payment systems.

Advantages:

• Flexible access for guests or customers
• Easy to integrate with online booking or payment apps

5. Parking Management Software

The central component of the entire system is the parking management software, which controls all access points, tracks vehicle movement, monitors available spaces, and handles billing.

Key Functions:

• Real-time monitoring dashboard
• Automated entry and exit logging
• Integration with payment gateways (e.g., M-PESA, card, or cash)
• Reporting and analytics
• User management and access permissions

6. Payment and Ticketing System

For public parking areas, a payment module can be added. It may include:

• Touchscreen kiosks
• POS terminals
• Mobile money integration
• Online payment portals

This ensures fast, transparent, and cashless payment processing, minimizing queues and operational costs.

7. Safety Sensors and Loops

Safety sensors detect vehicles and ensure the barrier does not close accidentally. Ground loops can also track the number of vehicles entering or leaving, helping to calculate available parking spaces.

8. LED Display Boards

LED signage can display available slots, directions, and entry/exit messages, improving communication and user experience.
