Question: Residents in our building regularly use our visitor parking. There is no fairness in the system. Is there a way to restrict access to visitor parking? Is there a similar system that controls access to common area EV chargers?
Answer: You can solve access to visitor parking spot and EV charging station easily by using software in conjunction with digital bollards.
For visitor spots and EV charging stations, you can solve this problem easily using a platform such as MiMOR in conjunction with digital bollards. There are quite a few companies supplying digital bollards. Residents can book a visitor parking spot. It’s the same as booking a common area such as the theatre room or rooftop BBQ area.
When the person with the booking approaches the visitor parking during their booked time, an app will show which space is booked and the driver needs only press a button to activate the removal of the bollard.
The process works the same for EV charging stations. If you install bollards in the EV charging station spots, a resident can book an EV charging station for a set time and, via an app, deactivate the bollard to gain access to the charger.
