Parking barriers, commonly referred to as parking locks, are devices designed to secure vehicles in place. Often found in coin-operated parking lots, these mechanisms engage metal claws with the vehicle's gear when the shift lever is set to park, effectively immobilizing the car. The vehicle remains stationary as long as the lock is active.
To release the lock, the driver must pay the required fee at a payment machine. Parking barriers come in various forms, such as lock plates and elevating lock plates, but all serve the essential function of securing parked vehicles.
While installation incurs initial costs, the system's advantage is that it doesn't necessitate continuous supervision by parking lot staff, thereby offering long-term cost savings.
