A parking barrier gate is an essential component of all modern parking facilities. They are designed to control the flow of vehicles entering and exiting a parking area. Essentially, it’s a mechanical parking barrier arm that typically consists of a horizontal ‘arm’ that rises and lowers to grant or restrict access. The parking barrier gate serves multiple purposes. For example, improving revenue collection to reducing congestion.
One of the primary benefits of a parking barrier gate is its ability to improve revenue.
By controlling access, the gate ensures that every vehicle entering the area is accounted for and charged accordingly. This level of control increases parking revenue, literally overnight, as many of our customers can attest to.
Integrate it with a full PARCS
Additionally, a parking barrier gate can be integrated with automated parking systems. For example, the FrogLPR and the FrogKiosk which allows for seamless transactions. This is quite often called a Parking Access and Revenue Control System (PARCS). It allows drivers to arrive at a parking facility and their license plate is automatically read. Once they have finished, and are ready to exit, they can simply enter their license plate details into a parking payment kiosk, and their parking rate is automatically calculated. When they approach the exit, the parking barrier gate simply opens to allow for streamlined egress.
Furthermore, depending on what parking software solution is chosen, drivers can take it one step further by paying for their parking in advance. The parking barrier arm simply opens when they arrive and opens when they exit. This level of parking automation not only increases revenue, but also reduces the need for manual oversight, lowering operational costs.
Manage congestion easily
Another significant advantage of a parking barrier gate is its ability to manage congestion. In busy urban areas or during peak hours, parking facilities can become overcrowded. Thus leading to frustration for drivers and inefficient use of space. A parking barrier gate helps to regulate the flow of vehicles. Furthermore, ensures the parking facility does not exceed its capacity. By controlling the number of vehicles entering the area, the gate prevents congestion both within the parking lot and in the surrounding streets. This regulation leads to a more organized and pleasant experience for drivers, as well as a safer environment for pedestrians.
So, what about this FrogGate?
At Frogparking, we took the traditional parking barrier gate and seriously ‘levelled-it-up’ with our innovative FrogGate. What sets FrogGate apart from other parking barrier gates on the market is its advanced parking technology.
The only automatically resetting barrier arm on the market
FrogGate boasts an unprecedented automatic magnetic reset feature. It is made with a light-weight carbon fiber design to ensure swift recovery from impact by self-resetting. In essence, if something hits the barrier arm, instead of becoming ‘offline’ and stops operating, it will simply ‘self-reset’. It is back working again within seconds. It’s phenomenal to see in action, and if you’d like to see some videos, please email us.
The safest parking barrier gate around
With inbuilt safety lasers, the barrier arm will stop moving if there is anything within the impact zone. Further to this, the magic of LiDAR technology means that it will not move until the person or vehicle is clear of the impact zone. Indeed LiDAR technology is the safest, most reliable and trusted technology on the market.

FrogGate has seamless integration with other parking solutions
Whether it’s our mobile parking application, parking guidance systems, or the PARCS mentioned above FrogGate works harmoniously with our entire FrogOne ecosystem. This integration allows for a fully automated parking experience, from entry to exit. Customers can use the Frogparking app to reserve a spot, pay for parking, and receive notifications when their time is about to expire. The FrogGate recognizes their vehicle upon arrival and automatically grants access, making the process quick and effortless. This level of convenience is unmatched by other parking barrier gates on the market, which often require manual ticketing or limited payment options.
The FrogGate is an eco-friendly design, with minimal operating costs
In an era where sustainability is increasingly important, FrogGate is engineered to minimize energy consumption. The gate operates efficiently, using minimal power while still providing maximum performance. Additionally, the materials used in FrogGate are sourced responsibly, contributing to a lower environmental impact. For businesses and municipalities looking to reduce their carbon footprint, FrogGate offers an environmentally conscious solution without compromising on quality or functionality.
Furthermore, designed specifically for the breakaway angles, and to manage minimum height clearance for garages, this is a beauty to behold. If you are looking for a narrow parking garage arm, a wide parking garage gate, or a specially designed parking lot barrier gate, we have got you covered. Made with significantly less ‘moving parts’, watch your maintenance expenses drop significantly.
Moreover, FrogGate is customizable to suit the specific needs of different parking facilities.
Whether you manage a small parking lot or a large multi-level garage, FrogGate can be tailored to fit your requirements. The parking gate’s adjustable settings allow for flexibility in operation. This means whether you need to accommodate high volumes of traffic, manage a valet area, or provide secure access for VIP customers, we have you covered. This adaptability makes FrogGate the ideal choice for any parking facility, regardless of size or complexity. With this variable speed technology, our customers can customize it to be the fastest barrier gate on the market.
In conclusion, a parking barrier gate is a crucial tool for improving revenue. It further helps with managing congestion, and enhancing the overall efficiency of parking facilities. FrogGate, with its advanced technology, seamless integration, eco-friendly design, and customization options, stands out as the best parking barrier gate on the market.
