As cities grow taller and streets get tighter, one thing remains constant: the need for more parking space. Whether you’re a homeowner in a dense residential neighborhood, an architect designing the next luxury villa, or a developer planning high-end commercial space, maximizing usable area without compromising design or function is a top priority.
This is where the IPS Series Underground Car Lift—also known as a pit parking system—offers a forward-thinking, elegant solution.
The IPS-2, IPS-3, and IPS-4 models are four-post underground car lifts engineered to store vehicles vertically below ground, allowing for 2 to 4 vehicles in the footprint of just one. It’s a type of concealed car elevator that keeps your parking hidden beneath the surface, preserving space, aesthetics, and security.
Unlike traditional car stackers, the IPS system is installed in a custom-built pit and uses motor or hydraulic lifting mechanisms to raise or lower vehicles. This setup is not only efficient—it’s also ideal for spaces with height restrictions or architectural limitations.
The biggest win? Space optimization. A single-car width pit can accommodate up to four vehicles stacked vertically. In crowded neighborhoods or high-value properties, this turns limited land into a multi-car garage.
Because vehicles are stored underground, they’re protected from sun, rain, and snow—preserving your car’s paint, battery, and interior. Plus, parking below the surface adds a layer of security: out of sight, out of mind for potential thieves.
The IPS system includes a PLC control unit, with optional remote control, manual key switches, or IC card operation. It’s designed for user-friendly access, with built-in photocell sensors, limit switches, and an emergency stop button to ensure safe and smooth operation.
The lift supports vehicles up to 2,500 kg in weight and 5 meters in length. Powered by either a 3.7kW to 11kW hydraulic unit or motor chain drive, it lifts at a speed of 3.6–8.0 m/min, ensuring fast entry and exit even during peak use.
