Business Hours

Open when you want. Enforce when you need.

Configure operating hours per property. During business hours, guests park freely without reservations. After hours, enforcement activates automatically.

How it works

  • Business hours = open parking (no reservation needed)
  • After hours = enforcement active (reservations required)
  • Simple mode (same hours weekdays/weekends) or Advanced (per-day)
  • Standardize across portfolio or configure per property

Why it matters

  • Daytime flexibility for visitors at multifamily properties
  • Night enforcement protects resident parking spaces
  • Custom hours for events and weekends
  • Reduces unnecessary violation notices during business hours
