TetherX for Car Parks // ANPR // MULTI-STOREY // SURFACE // AIRPORT
Every plate, every lane, tied to the camera that saw the car.
A barrier event is just a timestamp until you can see the car. TetherX reads the plate on every entry and exit, links it to the barrier and the camera angle, and keeps the handover clip a meet-and-greet operator needs when a driver says "it was already dented". One login across every deck, every site and every airport.
ANPR on every lane - plate read tied to the barrier event and the angle.
Whitelist, blacklist and watchlist driving the barrier, not a clipboard.
One login across surface, multi-storey and airport sites - no per-car-park recorder.
Quote routed direct to a TetherX-accredited local installer who knows ANPR and barrier estates. No central sales call.
A shift on TetherX
Accreditations across the TetherX installer network
TetherX partners hold the accreditations security-procurement buyers and insurers filter on. Coverage varies by partner.
Counts reflect partners currently in the TetherX directory holding each accreditation.
From the entry lane to the dispute - every car accounted for.
A car park lives and dies on what happened at the barrier and who held the keys. TetherX puts the plate, the barrier event, the camera angle and the handover clip on one timeline - so a dispute is a search, not a Tuesday spent scrubbing a deck recorder.
Plate tied to the car that drove in
Every entry and exit gets a plate read tied to the barrier event and the overview camera that saw the vehicle. When a ticket dispute or a barrier-jump lands, the plate, the time and the angle are already lined up - no scrubbing six hours of a deck recorder.
Handover evidence for meet-and-greet
For operators like Maple Parking who hold the keys, the "it was already dented" claim is settled from the handover clip. The plate links to the driver and the moment the car changed hands - the answer to a damage claim before it becomes a chargeback.
Overstay, lost-ticket & payment disputes
A lost-ticket or overstay charge is backed by the entry and exit reads, not a customer's word against the machine. Pull the two plate events and the footage between them - the duration and the charge defend themselves.
Multi-site oversight from one login
Surface car parks, multi-storey decks and several airport sites on one dashboard. The duty manager sees every lane and deck across the estate without a VPN per car park or a separate login per recorder.
Number-plate recognition that drives the barrier and the evidence.
ANPR is the core of a modern car park. TetherX reads the plate on every lane, decides the barrier on a whitelist, blacklist or watchlist, links the read to the handover clip and feeds occupancy and flow analytics - all on the same timeline as the cameras.
Whitelist, blacklist, watchlist - and the barrier
A whitelist lifts the barrier; a blacklist holds plate-cloners, non-payers and trespassers; a watchlist pings the duty manager on a flagged plate. The same read drives the barrier, bollard or staff gate, so a tailgate or ticketless exit surfaces as a named event beside the footage that caught it.
Handover: plate to driver to keys
For meet-and-greet and valet parking, the plate read links to the camera that recorded the handover and the moment the keys changed hands. The condition of the car when it arrived and when it left is one search away - the answer to a damage claim.
Occupancy & flow analytics
Live and historic counts per lane, deck and site - which decks fill first, when the airport rush hits, how long the average stay runs. Plan staffing and pricing on the read data, not a manual headcount on a quiet deck.
From a single surface car park to an airport estate
TetherX is open by design: the ANPR cameras and overview cameras your last installer fitted keep working, and the operations team keeps one platform across every car park - not a spreadsheet of recorder logins per site.
Keep The ANPR And Overview Cameras You Already Have
TetherX is open by design. The TetherBox bridge connects to 1,000+ integrations and any ONVIF device, so the ANPR lane cameras and overview cameras already across your car parks keep working - no rip-and-replace across a parking estate, no capital write-off, no barrier-camera you can't touch. Add cloud, AI, smart search and a tamper-evident audit log to the kit you already paid for.
- Works with the ANPR and overview cameras already on the gantry - 1,000+ integrations and ONVIF
- TetherBox bridge installs in 5 min per site - no lane closure for a rip-and-replace
- Per-camera and per-disk health monitoring across every deck and every car park
Operations, Duty Managers And Each Site Lead
A parking estate does not work like a single car park - a duty manager runs the whole operation while each site lead owns their lanes and decks. TetherX scopes per-site, per-role, per-camera. Site lead sees their barriers and decks. Operations sees the estate. The accounts team sees only the dispute evidence they are named on.
- Per-site scope - each lead sees their car park, not the whole estate
- Estate-wide operations role - every lane and deck across surface, multi-storey and airport sites
- Same dashboard on the control-room screen, the laptop and the phone on the deck
The questions after the barrier demo
Once the ANPR read is solid, operations and IT want the rest: how do we find a plate across a month of footage, who deters the catalytic-converter thief on a quiet deck, how do we police the EV bays, where does the data sit, and can we tighten retention when an insurer asks.
Find a plate or a car across a month of footage
Smart video search lets the operations team filter every lane, deck and site by plate, object, colour, zone and time - a silver vehicle at deck 3 after midnight last week - instead of scrubbing four recorders. The audit log captures the query and the named user.
Catalytic-converter & wheel-theft alerts
On a quiet deck, on-device AI flags a person under or beside a parked car out of hours, before the cat is cut out or the wheels are off. The keyholder gets a notification, not a Monday-morning report from an angry customer. Pair it with audio talkdown to end most attempts on the spot.
Audio talkdown on quiet decks
Trigger a live or recorded announcement through compatible IP speakers - "you are on a monitored deck, this is being recorded" - the moment after-hours motion fires on an empty level. Most would-be thieves leave; the operator does not get the theft claim.
EV-bay misuse and abandoned vehicles
Flag a petrol car parked in an EV charging bay, a bay overstaying its charge window, or a vehicle abandoned across several days. The plate read and the footage back the charge or the removal - no dispute about whether the bay was really blocked.
Cloud, on-prem or hybrid - your choice
Store on the TetherBox at the car park, in UK-region cloud, or both for redundancy. The bridge keeps recording locally if site broadband drops at the barrier, then syncs once it is back - so a lane outage never costs you the plate read. AES-256 at rest, TLS 1.2+ in transit; cloud infrastructure is ISO 27001 / SOC 2 attested at the infra level via Wasabi.
Change retention & resolution when policy changes
An insurer asking for more retention on the entry lane, a BPA code review, a new DPA stance on plate data - update retention windows, resolution and which analytics run per camera from the dashboard. No engineer visit to the barrier, no per-recorder reconfigure across the estate.
Operators like Maple Parking and Cophall Parking run their lanes, decks and handovers this way - quietly, across every site, on one login.
ANPR from forecourt to action
After-hours coverage, low-light, no blind spots.
Whole-estate ANPR and incident audit.

How TetherX stands out for car parks
ANPR, barriers, video and alerts on one platform - across every site.
One platform, one bill
Video, ANPR, access control and intruder alerts on one dashboard, one app, one bill - not separate systems per site.
Records through any outage
The TetherBox records full-rate on-site. A site 4G or broadband drop never loses footage - it syncs when the link returns.
Your retention, full 4K
Set retention per camera at full 4K - long on ANPR and entry lanes, short elsewhere. No pricing-band retention cap.
Keep your own ARC
Connect your existing monitoring station for out-of-hours response - Immix, Sentinel, CONXTD, MASterMind, Bold Patriot Manitou, Stages and others. Any ARC software can connect via a generic link - no special integration required. No forced SOC switch.
Built in the UK and Australia
Built in the UK and Australia. Local representatives in Canada and India. EU, North America and APAC supported. Your data stays in your region (UK, AU, CA, IN, EU, NA, APAC).
Ringfence legacy cameras
Existing cameras (including Hikvision and Dahua) stay reachable behind the TetherBox, off the public Internet - phase NDAA-compliant replacement on your budget cycle. NDAA-ready options include Hanwha Vision, Axis, Avigilon, Pelco, Bosch.
ANPR and deterrence for car parks
Plate reading and live talk-down on one platform.
ANPR, native and integrated
Camera-native plate reading on Hikvision, Dahua, Uniview and ONVIF cameras, plus ZatPark, ParkingEye and Unity5 integration.
Audio talk-down, built in
Live or recorded talk-down is built into the TetherBox and works with Axis, Zenitel, Bosch, 2N, Algo and Barix speakers - warn off loiterers in real time.
