www.quickpark.ie is a new online reservation system developed and powered by ParkMagic. Customers logging on to www.quickpark.ie can now reserve their car parking in advance, making airport parking a swifter and more enjoyable experience.

Passengers logging onto the website enter the date, time of arrival and duration of their stay and can then check the availability of car parking spaces. Customers making a pre-paid reservation receive a pin code that is entered into a Net2 keypad on arrival at QuickPark where a space will have been pre-allocated. The same pin code is used on exiting the car park. By using a pin code customers no longer need to have with them the payment card used in making the booking, nor obtain a ticket at the barrier, which can be so easily mislaid during a trip.

"You can book your seat on the airplane in advance, check-in in advance and even book your luggage in advance so why not your car parking space? ParkMagic worked closely with us to develop an easy to use, secure system which not only allows the car owner to quickly park their car on arrival at the airport but which also means no more queuing at the machines to pay for your parking when you return from your travels" says John O'Sullivan, managing director of QuickPark.

"Net2 is ideally suited to this kind of imaginative Internet-based database application. Developed specifically for the network environment, Net2 can be integrated easily into any similar scenario for local or remote access" comments Adam Stroud, sales and marketing director, Paxton Access.

Net2 is a network based access control system that can simultaneously manage tens of thousands of users accessing several hundred barriers or doors. Multiple sites can be networked over TCP/IP making Net2 ideal for large organisations or third-party monitoring companies. Users' access rights and system parameters may be administered centrally or locally as desired.
