Inspiration for architects: WÖHR Slimparker 557

The automatic Slimparker 557 parking tower is a unique offering from WÖHR. It does more than stack cars on top of each other! The slim construction allows incorporation into a soundproof wall that safeguards residents of housing projects against adjacent road/rail traffic noise pollution.

The wall-like system can be covered in plants, elegant wooden slats or a tempting billboard, so it presents an attractive view enjoyable by residents, users and passers-by alike.

In case of renovation projects, the parking tower provides innovative parking space solutions, using narrow gaps between buildings for additional car parking spaces. The Slimparker 557 shaft version offers a completely lowered car transfer area and is perfectly suited for retroactive integration into narrow alleyways, roads and courtyard entrances.

A further special feature offered by the Wöhr Slimparker 557 lies in the interesting façade configuration potential. Architects can design the façades individually and to customer requests, adapting them to the surrounding building fronts and almost invisibly integrated into the cityscape. The façades can bear a maximum weight of 50 kg per square metre.

About Slimparker 557

This new parking system offers up to 23 above-ground parking spaces on narrow and long ground plans. A central vertical lift located in the transfer area conveys the car to one of the 6 possible parking levels per system. Each parking level can store up to 4 cars.

The slim parking tower’s clear installation width amounts to a minimum of 280 cm. For additional car entry and exit comfort, the installation width can be extended up to 310 cm in 10 cm steps. It is also possible for one system to accommodate different car heights, available from 150 cm up to 200 cm, in 10 cm steps. Even in city centre districts where floor area is scarce and expensive, the Slimparker 557 tower version only requires approximately 77 m² to safely accommodate 23 parked cars.

Automatic Parking System up to 50 levels high: WÖHR Parksafe 582

Parksafe 582, along with Parksafe 580 and 583, is WÖHR's special range of automatically controlled parking systems developed on storage rack principles.  This innovative multi-level car parking system is ideally suited for residential and office building, for public parking, car-sharing, car-rentals, car-service centres, etc. where a large number of cars have to be accommodated in limited space. The innovative multi-level parking system requires a small area but can rise vertically up to 50 levels – either as a free-standing tower or inside a building.

The storage rack principle

The Parksafe 582 is an automatically controlled parking system with one central vertical lift and storage shelves positioned either rightwards or leftwards of the vertical lift.

In fully automatic systems, such as the Parksafe 582, the "Parking place comes to the driver". There is no need for the driver to go looking for the car. The transfer areas make it easy to get in and out and save the user the trouble of undertaking complex manoeuvring. A vertical lift transfers the cars on parking platforms into the rack system. As such, they are securely parked and remain untouched. Automated parking solutions permit several hundred vehicles to be parked in towers or high-rack systems on different parking levels.

-          4 parking spaces per level (standard system – 1 row)
