Lift-Slide Puzzle Parking System
A semi-automated multi-level vehicle storage and retrieval system that moves stacked cars on platforms using PLC software to receive and present vehicles at grade, providing direct access to any stacked vehicle without moving others.
Maximize every square foot
The ParkPlus Lift-Slide is a semi-automated puzzle parking system that stores and retrieves vehicles across multiple levels using PLC-controlled platforms. The system presents any vehicle at grade on demand, without the need to move other vehicles manually.
The Lift-Slidestacks up to 5 vehicles above grade and 2 below, achieving a maximum capacity of 7 vehicles in the space of one. There are no horizontal limitations, allowing the system to scale to any site footprint.
Available in above-grade, with-pit, tandem, and hybrid configurations. Self-park and attended/valet operations supported. Designed for both indoor and outdoor installation.
PLC software controls all platform movement. Push button, key fob, remote control, or mobile app operation.
Retrieve any stacked vehicle without moving others. The puzzle system presents vehicles at grade automatically.
Up to 5 levels above grade and 2 levels below. Maximize vertical capacity with optional pit configurations.
No horizontal limitations. Above grade, with pit, tandem array, and hybrid configurations available.
Multiple system layouts
The Lift-Slide can be configured for any site. Select above grade, with pit, tandem, or hybrid configurations to match your space and capacity requirements.
Above Grade Configuration
No excavation required. The system stacks vehicles vertically above the existing floor level, ideal for both indoor and outdoor installations with no structural modifications.
2-High
3-High
4-High
5-High
With Pit Configuration
Pit configurations extend the system below grade, maximizing vertical capacity while keeping above-grade height to a minimum, well-suited for sites with height restrictions.
2-High 1-Deep w/ Pit
3-High 1-Deep w/ Pit
4-High 1-Deep w/ Pit
5-High 2-Deep
5-High 2-Deep w/ Pit
Tandem Array Configuration
Tandem arrays run platforms two-deep on either side of a drive aisle, significantly increasing density without requiring additional floor area.
3-High Tandem
3-High 1-Deep w/ Pit Tandem
3-High 1-Deep Tandem
Hybrid Configuration
The Lift-Slide can be combined with ParkPlus SP100 Suspended Platforms for hybrid configurations that maximize density across complex or irregular sites.

Get a consultationWhere the Lift-Slide works
The Lift-Slide serves a broad range of applications. Self-park and attended/valet configurations available for indoor and outdoor installations.
Multi-Family Residential
Apartments, condominiums, and townhouse developments where maximizing parking within a limited footprint is critical.
Commercial Buildings
Offices, mixed-use developments, and commercial properties where capacity needs to increase without expanding footprint.
Low-Rise Buildings
Above-grade configurations for structures with limited height. No excavation required for standard installations.
High-Rise Buildings
Pit configurations extend below grade, maximizing capacity while minimizing above-grade height for high-rise developments.
Surface Lots
Transform existing surface lots into high-capacity parking. Indoor and outdoor installations for commercial operations.
Indoor & Outdoor
Designed for both indoor and outdoor installation. Operating temperature range of 20°F to 120°F.
Electric drive, PLC-controlled
The Lift-Slide uses dedicated electric motors for lifting and traversing operations. PLC software coordinates all platform movement for precise vehicle positioning.
Lift Motor: 3HP–5HP
Traversing Motor: 3HP
1 disconnect per system grouping
