# What is a vehicle access control system?

by [Admin](https://www.incomelec.com/en/blog/author/1inc0-ad) on July 26, 2023

[Articles](https://www.incomelec.com/en/blog/tag/articles) [Blog](https://www.incomelec.com/en/blog/tag/blog)

A vehicle access control system is a set of devices and technologies used to manage and control vehicle access to a specific location, such as a parking lot, shopping mall, or business center. The vehicle access control system can be designed to allow or deny vehicle access based on the client's needs.

The vehicle access control system consists of entry and exit gates, barriers, software, and accessories such as tags and license plate recognition cameras that work together to increase the system's security, control, and efficiency.

The vehicle access control system is a technological tool that allows for the control and management of high vehicle traffic, as well as the collection of parking fees through options such as automated payment points or manual payment points. These options allow users to pay with cash, debit or credit cards, or mobile applications.

Considering the above, there are five fundamental elements for a vehicle access control system that can serve the different user profiles that may enter a parking facility.

- Access barriers
- Entrance and exit columns
- License plate recognition cameras
- Payment point (manual or automatic)
- Software

For detailed information on the components of vehicle access control, we recommend the following article: LINK

Throughout our experience, we can assure you that vehicle access control systems with license plate recognition are much more secure, given that we can associate the vehicle's license plate with the ticket. This allows the system to purchase the ticket issued upon entry using the license plate associated with the ticket during the exit process.

For over 17 years, we have been positioned as the leading company in efficient and high-quality vehicle access control systems. Here are our three most representative parking system implementation success stories:
