With the use of motorbikes on the rise all over Spain, integrator Cettec Seguridad and PACOM have developed and integrated a PACOM 8002 solution allowing Mimoto Parking to offer cutting edge access control and intrusion detection technology to keep motorbikes secure across its facilities.

A growing number of people are turning to motorbikes as their primary method of transport due to Spanish cities becoming increasingly congested. In fact, according to a study by the Institute of Environmental Science and Technology (ICTA-UAB) and the UAB Department of Geography, Barcelona is now the European city with the highest number of motorbikes per inhabitant. The research found that 372,278 trips are made on motorbikes every day in the city.

Motorbikes began to experience a boom when the Spanish government enacted a regulatory measure that allowed car drivers with 3 years of experience to switch to motorbikes with capacity up to 125cc. Although this has brought many benefits, it has also created a significant problem for users – where to park their motorbikes. Unattended motorbikes are vulnerable to theft and vandalism, so protecting them has become a key concern.

It’s this situation that prompted Alicante-based motorcyclist, Alejandro Martin, to create Mimoto Parking, along with 2 other biking friends.

“We want our customers to be able to keep their motorbikes secure and avoid the fines associated with illegal parking,” Martin said. “We offer a revolutionary service where owners can safely park and store belongings such as helmets, jackets and gloves in lockers. Users can access our parking lots on a 24/7 basis and go about their business without worrying about their motorbike’s security.”

The system works by allowing customers to register online for free. After registration users are sent a 6-digit personal and non-transferable access code to obtain a parking space. They then identify the facility that is most convenient, key in the 6-digit code via a keypad when they arrive and enter and park. Utilising a pay as you go concept, when leaving users simply re-enter the same code and Mimoto Parking automatically charges them for the duration of their stay. Each facility is remotely monitored via Ralset’s alarm receiving centre (ARC) and a full intercom system offers users assistance when they need it.

“When developing Mimoto Parking we knew that our success would hinge on our ability to implement access control and intrusion detection technology that could not only guarantee the highest levels of security but also be intuitive, straightforward to roll-out across multiple sites, and be as reliable as possible,” Martin said. “In order to find out more about what we could do, we invited leading security integrator and PACOM-approved partner, Cettec Seguridad, to come in and hear about our requirements.”

Cettec Seguridad configured a solution based around the PACOM 8002 integrated access and alarm controller – an all-in-one platform that integrates the functionality required for a remote security system. PACOM 8002 supports auto-discovery of peripheral devices for simplified installation and all doors can be individually configured to operate via card only, PIN only, or card and PIN, with access schedules providing additional control. Furthermore, doors and alarm points can be partitioned into different areas of security and controlled by multiple keypads. The PACOM 8002 system needed to integrate seamlessly with Mimoto Parking’s mobile app and allow the ARC to monitor events.

According to Alfonso Lorenzo Robledano, business development director for Southern Europe at PACOM, Cettec Seguridad asked Pacom to make some adaptations to the PACOM Graphical Management System (GMS), which is based on a data communications platform that successfully integrates access control, alarm monitoring, video surveillance and many other building services into a single, remotely accessible system.

“PACOM’s technical experts were able to modify the software’s algorithms and design new schematics to meet Mimoto Parking’s exact requirements and, in addition, deliver uninterrupted system operation, intelligent self-testing and multiple back-ups,” Robledano said.

As well as allowing customers to communicate directly with personnel at the ARC, the modified PACOM GMS can also manage the parking occupancy status at each site. Signs can be operated to indicate availability and the system can even be remotely reset when necessary. This level of scalability also means that new technologies can simply be added to as they are developed, offering Mimoto Parking the ability to further develop the system as required and future proof its investment.

PACOM and Cettec Seguridad collaborated to ensure that the system can be quickly and easily rolled out across any new sites as they are acquired. Each system controls one entry and one exit door using a single controller and keypad, which means minimal wiring and allows minor adjustments to be made as necessary.

Mimoto Parking’s Alejandro Martin is delighted with what has been achieved and praised PACOM’s willingness to work closely with his team and Cettec Seguridad to devise a unique solution.

“Our ability to keep customers’ motorbikes secure is fundamental to our success and therefore we needed to be 100 per cent confident that the technology we installed was able to meet this objective,” Martin said. “PACOM’s experts were a pleasure to deal with and as keen as we were to optimise our entire security and access control infrastructure. I’m looking forward to working together in the future as we expand Mimoto Parking and introduce new sites to our portfolio.”

The response to the service has been so positive, according to Mimoto Parking, that the company has plans to open more than 40 facilities by 2021.
