Questions, answered.
For drivers who were booted or are visiting a community, and for boards and managers thinking about enforcement.
Booted or visiting?
Why was my vehicle booted?
The vehicle was parked in violation of the community’s parking rules, which are posted on signs at the entrance. Common reasons: parking in a guest space without registering, a resident vehicle in a guest space, parking in a fire lane or no-parking area, or taking someone’s assigned space.
How do I get the boot removed?
Pay online at parklockpros.com/payment, any time, day or night. Enter the license plate and the address where the vehicle is parked. Once payment is received, the boot is removed within one hour.
How much does it cost?
The release fee is set within the limits of Palm Beach County’s vehicle immobilization rules and is shown before you pay. Payment is by card through our secure checkout.
Can I remove the boot myself?
No. Do not try to drive the vehicle or remove the boot. Damaging or removing the device can result in additional charges.
I registered as a guest. Why was I booted?
A guest registration covers designated guest parking areas only. It does not allow parking in resident, reserved or no-parking spaces, and it does not override the community’s other rules, such as time limits.
I think I was booted by mistake. What do I do?
Call us at (561) 285-2930 with your license plate and the location ready. We’ll review the registration records and the photos taken at the time of the boot and respond within 24 hours. If we booted your vehicle in error, we refund the full release fee.
Do you speak Spanish?
Yes. Call (561) 285-2930 and a bilingual member of our team can help you in Spanish. This website is also available in Spanish with the Español button.
What if I was booted before a holiday?
We don’t boot on the holidays we’re closed, but if your vehicle was booted before a holiday, you can still pay online and we’ll remove the boot.
Is booting legal?
Yes. ParkLock Pros is licensed and insured to immobilize vehicles in Palm Beach County and follows the county’s rules, including posted signage at every property we enforce.
Do I need to register my guest vehicle?
At communities that use ParkLock guest registration, yes. Scan the QR code on the sign or go to parklockpros.com/permit and register before you park. It takes about a minute.
Thinking about enforcement?
What does ParkLock cost our property?
Nothing. The violator pays the release fee. We also install compliant signage at no charge.
What kind of agreement do we sign?
A simple service agreement with your board or manager. Either side can cancel with 30 days’ written notice.
How often do you patrol?
Patrols run 5 times a week, including after hours, and enforcement is available 24/7 except on major holidays.
Who decides which vehicles get booted?
Your community does. We enforce only the rules in your agreement and on your posted signs, during our patrols or when someone your community authorizes, such as your manager or security, calls us. Nobody else can direct us to boot a vehicle.
How do guests register?
Guests scan the QR code on your signs or visit parklockpros.com/permit and register their vehicle online in about a minute. You never have to manage paper passes.
Can you catch residents who park in guest spots?
Yes. Every registration is logged by plate, so vehicles that keep re-registering stand out. We can also track every plate against your own guest limit, like 72 hours or 3 nights a week, and report it to the board.
What reports do we get?
Every week, your board and manager get a PDF report by email with guest registrations, repeat offenders and boots with location and time, so you can answer any resident complaint with facts.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. ParkLock Pros holds Palm Beach County vehicle immobilization license IM-11 and carries the insurance the county requires to issue that license. We can name your association as additional insured.
Do you give residents a warning first?
We don’t issue warnings ourselves. We enforce the rules on your posted signs. If your board wants a warning or violation-notice step first, a security company can handle it. Our sister company, Capital Protection Solutions, provides security officers and patrols for communities.
Where do you operate?
Palm Beach County only. We are licensed and insured to immobilize vehicles in Palm Beach County.
