As parking space
becomes a major issue in urban areas, a radical solution is required to solve
the problem. Keeping in mind that land is scarce in our congested cities, we
need a solution that multiplies parking space in a small footprint.
The solution to this problem is Wohr’s Automatic Tower Parking systems.
Why Tower Parking?
Tower Parking
offers the most efficient system when it comes to saving horizontal space and
making the most of vertical space. Tower systems can be designed and built to
multiply parking capacity more than 20 times. However, lower configurations can
also be installed to accommodate different height restrictions.
Here are some
salient features of tower parking systems:
·
It can be a completely
stand-alone structure or can be integrated with a building. It can be fitted
into narrow gaps too.
·
An automatic system with computerized
control systems. Hence, it does not require any operator to function.
·
Does not need any ramps or drive
ways, hence saving space to maximize the parking.
·
Offers safety against theft,
damage and vandalism.
·
It is Ecofriendly due to its
compact construction and reduced carbon emission.
·
Tower parking is ideal for
commercial buildings that have a higher parking volume to accommodate.
·
Large residential complexes;
where podium parking is not possible, tower parking offers the viable solution.
Wohr's Tower Parking Systems
Wohr offers
three basic models of Automatic Tower Parking Systems: Slimparker 557 Tower, Slimparker
557 Shaft, and Crossparker 558.
All three
systems offer automatic parking of 22-23 cars of different car heights and
lengths. The carrying capacity per
platform / per car available is 2000 kg and 2600 kg. The systems have very
small floor plan area and very slim construction.
Slimparker 557
Tower
The 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
construction contours allow incorporation of a soundproof wall. This safeguards
the residents of housing areas against adjacent road and rail traffic noise.
Narrow gaps can be used for additional car parking spaces.
Highlights:
·
Narrow gaps are perfectly
closed
·
Slim installation width of only
280 cm, can be extended up to 310 cm in 10 cm steps
·
Individual façade can be done
by the developer - max. weight of approx. 50 kg per m²
Slimparker 557
shaft
When there is more space in
length than in width, the Slimparker 557 shows off its merits. This slim system
merely requires an installation width of 2.60 meters in narrow broad strips
between buildings. It has been specially designed for the area between the
set-back lines and building. Vehicles can be stacked up to 6 levels deep in
front of, and behind the lift. The ground level lid can be furnished with the
most varying coverings and can be camouflaged to suit its surroundings.
Highlights:
·
Below grade arrangement
especially designed for the area between the set-back line and building
·
Can be driven over when
entrance is lowered
·
2 to 4 row arrangement behind
each other
·
For multi-row arrangement an
empty space is required
·
Top platform can be covered
individually by customer to suit to the surrounding
Crossparker 558
The Crossparker 558 offers an
extension to the Slimparker 557 as far as width is concerned. Two further grids
can be arranged on each side, left and right next to the central lift. In this
way, the amount of parking spaces can be as much as doubled on the available
ground surface.
Highlights:

Below grade arrangement
especially designed for the area between the set-back line and building
