Two-Post Hydraulic Stack Parking
Park two cars in one bay using a raised hydraulic platform. Clear the lower bay before retrieving the upper car.
- Capacity
- 2 cars per unit
- Retrieval
- Lower bay clears first
Site suitability
Where this system fits.
Residential or commercial bays where drivers or an attendant can coordinate access to the two cars.
What to plan for
Allow room to move the lower car. Check vehicle height and weight, overhead services and the supporting slab.
Typical settings: Residential basements · Stilt and podium parking · Open surface lots and covered sheds · Offices and commercial plots with a fixed bay count
Daily use
Parking and retrieval.
01
Park on the platform
The first car is parked on the platform at ground level. The platform is then raised to its storage position.
02
Use the lower bay
With the raised platform secured, the ground-level bay accommodates the second car.
03
Clear the bay to retrieve
The lower car moves out before the upper platform returns to ground level for collection.

From a project.
Greater Noida West, Uttar Pradesh
Room for the second car.
A two-car stack layout adds an upper parking position to every allocated bay. For basement level 2, the design pairs 398 ground positions with 398 raised positions.

Common questions
Questions before you choose.
- Can both cars leave independently?
- No. The lower bay must be empty before the upper platform is lowered. If drivers need access without moving another car out, compare puzzle parking.
- How much headroom does a two-post stack need?
- The 2,600 kg reference configuration requires at least 4,000 mm from the floor to the lowest overhead service. Vehicle dimensions and the final platform arrangement still need checking.
- How long does the platform take to move?
- The reference acceptance range at full load is 26–35 seconds up and 32–40 seconds down. This is platform travel time; clearing the bay and driving on or off adds time.
