Visitors and staff are now directed around Scunthorpe & Grimsby Hospitals to available parking spaces by Sheriff Technologies variable message signs (VMS).

The VMS integrate with existing car park data infrastructure ensuring data acquisition costs are negligible. The signs are located at critical decision points around the hospital sites, ensuring drivers are presented with up to the minute car park status to inform their parking decisions.

Sheriff Technologies are currently developing and Android Application for programming our popular Bluetooth Series 5 Timer.

The App will allow Android Smartphones and Tablets to connect, test and programme Series 5 Timers, superseding the current IPAQ PDA system.

With a beta version of the app ready for use, we are seeking a panel of 10 to 15 customers for testing in real-world scenarios.

Please contact us via our contact form if you are interested in joining the beta test panel.

A busy summer period for Sheriff Technologies has seen the completion of a number of shopping centre and hospital car park variable message signs projects:

Using a Sheriff Technologies SPACES / FULL sign is a cost-clever way of gaining the benifits of variable message signs in a car park using existing barrier or count equipment.

The VMS are voltage driven by 24v, meaning integration with almost all car park barriers is easy. The VMS then automatically switch between SPACES and FULL messages depening on car park status - advertising the availability of spaces to attract more visitors when spaces are available and prevent needless queuing and improve visitor experience when a car park is full.
