If you’re in the business of building spaces, you’re also in the business of solving spatial tension.
Every square meter matters. Every centimeter saved is cost deferred. Every added parking space is either a tick on zoning compliance or a competitive differentiator in a dense urban landscape.
So, here’s the big question:
What if you could double your parking capacity—without expanding your footprint, altering your facade, or busting your budget?
Meet the PTP–2 Two-Post Pit Parking Lift—a semi-automatic, underground car stacking system engineered for the kind of real estate math developers understand: maximize ROI, minimize build-up.
Designed for projects where aesthetics, access, and efficiency all have to coexist.
The PTP–2 is a two-post hydraulic lift system, installed in a shallow pit, that enables you to vertically stack two cars in the same surface-level bay. One car goes into the pit. The other parks on top, flush with the ground. When not in use, the entire structure disappears into the floor.
Unlike bulky four-post lift towers or high-maintenance automatic puzzle systems, PTP–2 sits quietly underground, waiting to be activated—and never competing with your architecture.
If you’re managing or designing for any of these, the PTP–2 is a strategic fit:
| Project Type | Why It Works |
|---|---|
| Urban infill apartments | Turn a 5-space lot into 10, without a new floor slab |
| Private villas or residences | Luxury feel without surface clutter |
| Mixed-use or retail parking | Add premium stackable bays where land is limited |
| Hospitality or boutique hotels | Offer secure guest parking without sacrificing curb appeal |
| Retrofit projects | Install without reengineering the entire garage |
We’re not just stacking cars here—we’re solving parking density under real-world conditions. Here’s how the PTP–2 hits the mark:
| Pain Point | How PTP–2 Solves It |
|---|---|
| Limited lot size | Doubles capacity with zero extra land use |
| Tight ceiling heights | Designed for garages with vertical restrictions |
| Long permitting timelines | Easier approvals than fully automated systems |
| Maintenance headaches | Fewer moving parts = lower servicing overhead |
| Budget limitations | Offers automated utility without automated price tags |
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Max Lifting Capacity | 2,500 kg (supports most SUVs) |
| Vehicle Height Range | 1,550–2,050 mm |
| Vehicle Width | Up to 1,850 mm |
| Vehicle Length | Up to 5,000 mm |
| Pit Depth Required | ≥ 2,000 mm |
| Cycle Time | ~50 seconds |
| Power Options | 1-Phase or 3-Phase, 2.2–5.5 kW |
| Control | Key switch, wireless or remote panel |
Let’s clear this up—because it’s important for planning.
With PTP–2, the top car is always accessible at ground level. However, to retrieve the lower car, you’ll need to temporarily move the top one.
Why Is That Acceptable?
Because it allows the system to be:
· Mechanically simpler (lower cost, fewer failures)
· Faster to install (shallow pit, preassembled parts)
· More compact (no exterior structural frames)
· Easier to permit (especially in tight urban environments)
If your scenario requires fully independent access to both vehicles, then you’ll need a four-post stacker or puzzle system—at double or triple the investment.

You’re a pro, so here’s what you need to know:
· Foundation: ≥ 2,000 mm pit with proper drainage and reinforced concrete
· Height Clearance: 3.2–3.5 meters total required from pit base to ceiling
· Operation: Simple key switch or remote; optional wireless control
· Maintenance: Minimal; annual fluid check, monthly lock inspection
· Lead Time: Shorter than most fully automated options
If you’re bidding on a project where parking units directly affect sales price, leaseability, or permit success, the PTP–2 turns space into ROI.
· Gain up to 40–60% more parking slots
· Avoid structural rework or expansion
· Add a premium security feature for residential clients
· Make your design more competitive in RFPs
This isn’t a gimmick. It’s an infrastructure advantage hiding in plain sight.
The PTP–2 underground parking lift is your quiet enabler. It makes space where there was none. It keeps your design sleek, your permitting smooth, and your project more profitable.
