Parking Made Easy®
Parking BOXX is a North American manufacturer of barrier gate systems for parking lots and garages throughout Fort Collins and the Fort Collins Metro area. Straight arms up to 20 feet, articulating arms for low-clearance garages, breakaway safety design, and CloudEASE cloud management — all manufacturer-direct with no middleman. Serving Fort Collins facilities from Old Town to Midtown Fort Collins.
Parking BOXX barrier gates are available in two arm configurations — choose the right type for your Fort Collins facility.
Standard configuration for surface lots, garages, and commercial facilities. The most common barrier gate arm type installed in Fort Collins.
The arm folds upward during operation, requiring significantly less overhead clearance. Essential for Fort Collins parking garages where headroom is limited.
Barrier gates are available in regular (driver's side) or reverse (passenger side) configurations to match your lane layout.
Arm length is selected based on lane width. Standard lengths cover single-lane through double-wide applications.
Optional upgrades include LED-illuminated arms for 24/7 visibility, security cameras (single or dual with NVR), and battery backup for power-outage operation.

Every Parking BOXX barrier gate includes comprehensive safety features designed to protect vehicles, pedestrians, and the equipment itself.
The barrier arm automatically reverses direction if it contacts a vehicle or object during closure, preventing damage and injury.
Engineered break points with a shear pin that snaps on impact — protecting the motor, housing, and vehicle. Replacement shear pin costs under $10.
Illuminated panels indicate lane status — green when open, red when closed. Reduces driver confusion and prevents wrong-way entry.
An audible warning sounds before the arm descends, alerting pedestrians and drivers in the gate zone.
In-ground vehicle detection loops prevent the arm from closing on a vehicle and detect tailgating attempts.
Infrared beam sensors across the lane opening detect obstructions and hold the arm in the open position until the lane is clear.

Yes. Parking BOXX provides complete barrier gate installation in Fort Collins and throughout the Fort Collins Metro area. As the manufacturer, Parking BOXX handles the entire process — site survey, equipment manufacturing, concrete and electrical prep, hardware mounting, CloudEASE software configuration, and operator training.
Every Parking BOXX barrier gate includes auto-reverse on obstruction, breakaway arm design with shear pin (under $10 to replace), red/green illuminated guidance panels, audible closure alarms, dual loop detectors for tailgate prevention, and photo-eye infrared sensors. All safety features are standard — not add-ons.
Yes. Parking BOXX barrier gates integrate with LPR camera systems for ticketless entry, RFID card readers for credential-based access, and the CloudEASE cloud management platform. A single system can combine barrier gates with pay stations, LPR cameras, and access control readers — all managed from one dashboard.
Fort Collins manages two distinct parking populations — CSU students and staff requiring permit-controlled access, and Old Town visitors needing short-term paid parking within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Parking BOXX supports both use cases: RFID permit access at CSU structures and pay station ticketing in Old Town public lots, all managed from a single CloudEASE account that gives the city a unified view of parking revenue and occupancy across both systems.
