If money is no object, read on... otherwise, this might just hurt a little inside. The Cardok Parking lift system is presumably what Batman would be using to stash his ride, if he actually existed (we're not ruling that out just yet). Hold down a button on the remote to have four hydraulic actuators quickly and silently raise up a slab of driveway, revealing a hidden parking spot fit for virtually any set of wheels—SUVs and Jeeps included. Total recommended lift capacity is six tons, split between the two (top and hidden) platforms.
Cardok's flush, concealed look (minus a narrow, metal border around the platform) is made possible thanks to a 40–50mm deep tray on the top platform, to be finished in the same way as the surrounding driveway. We particularly enjoy the Cardok Mono, which gives up the top spot to some greenery for better concealment and even more dropped jaws once your guests realize a Lambo rests beneath your garden. Each installed unit is contained within a watertight metal tank and has an automated backup generator and sump pump—just in case.
And if one hidden spot doesn't cut it (!), the 'Multi' version doubles either the width or length, offering 2 independently functioning Cardoks in one for a price not much higher than that of a Mono.
