Community garages and parking

Access control for community garages.

Replace uncontrolled remotes with identified vehicles and permissions that can be added, changed or withdrawn. Onzane connects properties, parking spaces and plates with garage opening.

From authorised vehicle to open door

Every entry responds to a valid permission.

The community keeps a clear relationship between the garage, space, property, vehicle and the means used to identify it.

  1. 01Configure the garage

    Define doors, schedules, spaces and rules for residents, visitors and providers.

  2. 02Link the vehicle

    Associate a plate, tag or credential with a property, space, person or temporary permission.

  3. 03Validate arrival

    The system identifies the vehicle and checks that its authorisation remains active.

  4. 04Record and revoke

    Keep the opening history and disable access when circumstances change.

Automatic vehicle identification

Number plate, RFID tag or both.

Every garage needs a different level of automation. Onzane can work with the appropriate signal and then apply the community’s centralised rules.

Automated entry to a community garage or car park
Identify the vehicle before operating the gate or barrier
01

Number plate recognition

A camera recognises the plate as the vehicle approaches and Onzane checks its authorisation before triggering the opening.

02

Windscreen RFID tag

A tag linked to the vehicle identifies it by radio frequency without a remote, card or phone.

03

Mixed system

Combine the plate and RFID tag to cross-check identifiers, adapt rules and improve control reliability.

Plates managed from the app

Residents keep their vehicle details up to date.

The community can allow each property to manage authorised plates from the Onzane app, within defined quotas and conditions. Changing cars no longer creates a manual task for the manager.

  • Residents manage new plates and changes themselves.
  • Plate limits and rules defined per property or parking space.
  • Relationship between plate, vehicle, resident and valid permission.
  • Temporary access for visitors, maintenance and providers.
  • Optional combination with windscreen RFID tags.
  • Opening history for reviewing incidents and authorisations.

Everyday parking problems

Deactivation does not depend on recovering a remote.

A permission can be withdrawn from management and ceases to be active across linked media. Operations adapt to simple garages or shared parking schemes.

01Spaces

Fixed, rotating or shared use

Link vehicles to specific spaces or apply different rules when parking works in shifts or with flexible use.

02One-off access

Visitors and service companies

Create authorisations with schedules and expiry for maintenance, cleaning, deliveries or other work.

03Changes and losses

Revocable permissions

Disable plates, tags, remotes or users when a resident changes, a device is lost or a contract ends.

A vehicle-focused solution

The garage connects rules and technology.

This page explains parking operations. Authorisations and hardware are covered separately to avoid mixing search intentions.

01Authorisation

Permissions define who and when

They determine the scope, schedule and validity of each vehicle or person’s right.

See permissions
02Infrastructure

Devices execute the opening

Cameras, RFID readers, relays, doors and barriers make up the compatible physical deployment.

See devices
03Common policy

Other access points share the same base

Pedestrian doors, pools and facilities can be managed under the same community policy.

Frequently asked questions

Access control for community garages.

Answers about plates, RFID, remotes, spaces, visitors and gate automation.

01How does number plate access to the garage work?

A camera at the entrance identifies the plate. Onzane checks that it is linked to a valid permission and, if the rules are met, the compatible system operates the door or barrier.

02Can residents change their plates from the app?

Yes. The community can allow each resident to manage the plates linked to their property or space, subject to the number and conditions defined by management.

03What is an RFID vehicle tag?

It is an identifier linked to the vehicle, usually attached to the windscreen. A compatible reader detects it on approach and checks its authorisation without the driver using a remote.

04Can plate recognition and RFID tags be combined?

Yes. A mixed system can cross-check both identifiers or use one as a fallback for the other, depending on the installation and defined security rules.

05Can Onzane support fixed spaces and rotating parking?

Yes. Permissions can be linked to specific spaces or adapted to shared, rotating parking and temporary authorisations.

06Can access be created for providers or maintenance?

Yes. Permissions can be limited to specific dates, schedules and periods, keeping permanent and one-off authorisations separate.

07Must all existing remotes be removed?

Not necessarily. Depending on the installed system, remotes may coexist with the app, plate recognition or RFID tags during a gradual deployment.

08What happens if a remote is lost or a resident changes?

Management can withdraw the linked permission without relying solely on recovering the physical device. The exact action depends on the capabilities of the existing receiver or controller.

Identified vehicles, controlled permissions

Design garage access around the vehicles that actually use it.

We review doors, barriers, cameras, readers, spaces and rules to propose a deployment compatible with the community’s infrastructure.
